Kik question: If I get blocked on an account by someone, does my entire IP address get blocked?
I think I got blocked, but I am not sure if I did. I tried messaging the person from another account, and the same thing happened. It is when the faded D appears and stays that way. This has happened to me before, and I have tried it. In previous occasions, I could log into another account from the same device and send messages to the person who just blocked me on my main account; however, now I am not so sure if it is working.
So, question is: if someone blocks your main account, are they actually blocking your IP so that all accounts from it cannot contact him or her?

I don't know, but if they block the IP then it's got nothing to do with accounts but the device itself, which would change IPs regularly as IP are usually Dynamic, not static. Basically this means that your IP changes regularly, leading to blocking an IP not being that efficient so it's probably just your account.
Also, if they (who ever they may be) blocked you, they may have their reasons and you could be entering into harassment territory there.
