Which raises a related point. If someone wants to complain publicly about another member/transaction, should they be required to identify it?

I don't like requirements, personally. (says the non-conformist)

And another BST purchase. Love the BST

Probably not a forum rule but a good reason to add someone to your ignore list so you don't have to see any more of their posts.

WOW Leon that is one beautiful Ted Wiliams card.

I get both sides but I think people should either work out disputes privately or, if they're going to post publicly about them, have the cojones to tell us who you're complaining about.

If someone posts a general complaint about an issue that they want to get feedback on, maybe it makes sense to not name the person publicly in case there really is no issue.

The problem here is that someone who thought they were being accused outed themselves after someone else posted a link to a thread that the OP had recently made an offer on. At that point, I think the OP should have posted that wasn't the seller he was talking about. It shouldn't have taken a week and almost 300 subsequent posts for that to happen.

I've seen many threads that are less general requests for feedback/guidance and more efforts to gain leverage in a dispute.

Just when you thought it was safe to go back into the water...

Maybe someone will have a pair of cojones for sale at the Strongsville show. Or on the BST.

I didn't know that feature exists. I guess that means you wont see this post...

How does the feature work? Does it just eliminate all post entries of the person on the "ignore" list from the thread being viewed? Or did you just make that up. Oh yeah, that's right, you won't see this post...

LOL, I can't imagine any reason to have you on my ignore list.

The only way you see someone's posts when on your ignore list is if someone quotes them like you did me. So now you made everyone ignoring me read my post.

On the line with the log out icon go all the way to your left. Click on user CP. Then under settings and options you can edit your ignore list. Personally I only have one person on mine and it was because of a BST incident they are on there.
