I'm one of those bastards.

My number's always blocked, and you have to dial *82 before my number to call me.

It's not that big of a deal.

Because I like to know who's calling me before I answer the phone so I can decide whether or not I want to talk to them in advance.

It's not a huge issue. Anyone who knows me and wants to talk to me can take the extra second to dial *82 when they call.

As for my number being blocked, well... I just like to make crank phone calls with zero possibility of getting caught. ;) Hell, I know people who also have *82 call-screening and I have no problem dialing it to unblock my number for them.
"I have to dial three numbers so someone who probably already knows my number can see it?!? :eek: Holy ****! How dare they?!"


There are bigger things in the world to get pissy about. Like....oh, anything else.



I do have to say this though: I can completely understand why one would want to know if *you* were calling prior to answering the phone. :)
