Basically, NO Block Checkers Work!
RE: who block me by solidphantom on 12-09-2009 at 11:55 PM
i dont mean by block checkers. whoever use the bock checker is dumb.
but there is a way to detect who block you. basically is about leaving notes in someone's profile. but i still dont get about it. anyone can give me details?

Someone's profile options are unrelated to Messenger. And a person could read your notes while he/she is offline in Messenger and when you are offline. Also, someone can perfectly disable prive notes in their profile.
As such I don't see how that is going to detect anything. There is no way to see if someone has blocked you or not. All the statements regarding those block checkers you'll find in that link posted by Krissy (that you can never be certain if it is because of a setting of the contact or because he/she has realy blocked you) do apply for profiles too (and everything other 'method' for that matter).
So, despite what you may have read or what people have told you, the above are facts and as such it is NOT possible. Everybody who state something otherwise does NOT know what he/she is talking about and/or has not tested things out in the proper way.

i am talking about this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Inbv1vV0nkE

I just noticed something which in fact works to check if you are blocked or not. It is also shown in the video you posted. When you have someone who is offline by going to their profile, the colour surrounding the picture and which shows the status is green which means the contact is online but you are showing him offline. This also works when the contact is busy (red) or away (orange). So there is a way to see if someone has blocked you or not. The colour is light blue when he is appearing offline.

Other methods to check if you're blocked, like the one from the video, don't work either.
RE: who block me by solidphantom on 12-10-2009 at 08:48 AM

1. Change of habit following some sort of a dispute -- people don't change their habits easily. If you see that somebody who has always been online every day suddenly isn't for a week or more, they might be blocking you. This would be more likely following some form of an argument.
2. Social engineer mutual friends -- in most cases you will know someone else who talks to the person you are concerned about and if you ask the right way, they may reveal to you whether the person is online to them or not.
3. Other communication methods -- most people use more than Messenger. They might also use things like Skype, AIM, etc. Get on all and add them on all while everything is going well; they won't typically remember to block you on every one at the same time.
However, I think the main thing to remember here is that knowing you've been blocked is not that helpful and sometimes worse for you than not knowing. If you want to know, chances are you planning to somehow confront them about it; remember, this is usually not going to be productive because they already have demonstrated they don't want to talk to you right now. Depending on their personality and how nice you are, some may opt to listen when you somehow bypass their block to "talk" about it, but many will just block you where they had forgotten to do so.
The bottom line is I think you will be much more successful treating whatever is on your mind as a social issue than you are likely to be treating it as a technical one.

Please, read our posts.
it is not, repeat: NOT, possible to see if someone has blocked you that way because a person can easily alter his/her profile settings. And you can NOT know what his/her settings are. As such, this is not possible....
quote:Nope, you can NOT, depending on his/her profile settings.
