I got two messages from that latest asshole scammer Tommie whatever fake name... I tried to flag his ass last night, but his profile was not reachable. This morning got another scam message from the same profile.
Someone suggested to set a 10 post limit minimum for messaging or interacting in the classifieds. Why are we making it easy for assholes to create throw-away profiles to commit fraud with impunity? Creating minimum 10 post limit for messaging will make their job much harder and they would need to create a lot of fake temporary profiles and post 10 times something of value. If we keep doing this permissive messaging we are opening up our members to fraud and exploitation.
We do not want to become another "Airguns Classifieds" type of Wild Wild West ..."everyone for themselves" lottery ticket-type buy/sell situation.
If anyone who is new and does not yet have a 10 post limit for messaging, they can post their question to the forum. Or they can get receiving privileges' but not sending. If you look at other non-airgun web sites they have much much more stringent rules for newcomers.
Do not want to keep subsiding some asshole scammers' lifestyle...
