Only the meeting creator can approve or deny requests to join a meeting from participants outside of their domain. It is better to behave considerately to avoid being blocked if you want to still be able to contact the other user when something important comes up.Important: These steps can only be followed before you join a meeting:įor education meetings, attempts to join from outside the domain won't work for some participants

Also consider being less “spammy” by, e.g., composing a complete thought when sending a message instead of sending a bunch of short messages (one meaningful notification is less annoying than a series of partial-thought notifications). Before sending a message, consider that something which seems important and pressing to you may just be an annoyance to the recipient. To reduce the chances that another user decides to block you, please be understanding of other users and respect any requests to be quieter. The “block” feature may cause the person who used it to be confused and unable to find the blocked person. For example, one might block someone even if they intend to contact them in the future. To people who end up blocked: understand that sometimes people use the “block” feature without understanding the ramifications. To unblock someone in Hangouts, open the menu in the upper-left hand corner (☰), choose Settings (gear), open Blocked people, locate the blocked user, and choose Unblock. Or if all Hangouts interactions are troubling you temporarily, open the menu in the upper-left hand corner (☰), choose Settings (gear), and under Notifications open the dropdown Mute notifications for… and choose a time period. Your browser and devices will no longer bug you with messages on that conversation, but you must remember to re-enable Notifications for that user later. From there, click the gear icon, and uncheck Notifications. For example, in Hangouts, open a conversation. Many messaging websites offer a “mute notifications” feature. If a person is annoying you but you intend to maintain a relationship with them, please consider not blocking that person. To people who consider using the “block” feature: the “block” feature is meant for handling users who endlessly harass or spam you who you are unlikely to want to contact again. Additionally, you may not be able to join any group conversations when any user in that group conversation has blocked you. This is because the block feature is meant to be useful in the situation where the blocked user is harassing another user. Or, perhaps, the recipient is made invisible to the sender or the message is silently failed instead of even showing an error. To protect users, when a blocked user tries to send a message, the blocked user is not given a very specific error message. If this happens, it is possible that the recipient has blocked you. Many messaging websites will fail to deliver messages to other users with mysterious/inexplicable reasons or silently fail to deliver a message at times. The OP commented that this situation turned out to be a case of the recipient using Hangouts’s “block user” feature. Ever since the mobile data problem has occurred I am not able to send a Hangout message to my father. I called the provider and it has fixed its network problem. Sending a Hangout message to my father initially failed due to mobile data network problem of my provider O2 in Bad Wildungen (my current location). My problem began when I have tried to send a Hangout message on my mobile phone to my father. I guess the problem is inside of my Google account, because both sending methods fail.īoth sending methods (web interface of Gmail on my Laptop and Hangout App on my mobile phone) succeed, when I try to send a Hangout message to any other contact than my father. When I try to send a message via the Hangout App on my mobile phone I get the following error message: When I try to send a message via the web interface of Gmail I get the following error message: No matter if I try to send the message via the web interface of Gmail on my laptop (Windows 7) or if I try to send it via the Hangout app my Samsung Galaxy S3 Neo mobile phone, sending a message to my father will fail. Sending a Hangouts message to my father fails. I will try to translate them from German (the language of my country Germany) to English.
