Agree with it or not, I make use of my 'Ignore List' on vBulletin. I try to add spammy accounts, non-payers, dodgy sellers, those who seem less than reputable and also people I actually want to ignore (like those who post "me too" in every thread and don't contribute anything).
It stops me accidentally buying from someone I wouldn't want to buy off, and it keeps discussion a bit clearer in the case of the "me too"-ers so I think it is a useful feature.
I'm interested in NamePros' policy on the following:
-1-
Say I have a sales thread and someone on my ignore list posts 'Sold', am I obligated to sell to them?
(If this was the case, I'd probably unblock them for the transaction if they were just an annoying poster- business is business after all.)
As I understand it the offer has not been communicated to me and no binding contract has therefore been formed, however this is obviously difficult to prove and the 'world at large' has seen the offer clearly communicated.
-2-
If I include a condition stating "If you're on my blocked list, I can not see your post, so your offer is invalid" would NP consider this a valid clause in any dispute?
As I understand it blocked users don't know they're blocked (unless they try to PM?). How would one prove they were already on a blocked list and the seller was not "pulling a fast one" by blocking them after the sale as they didn't like the price.
I very much doubt I'd ever include such a term, but would appreciate clarification.
I've tried a search and can not see anything relating to this, so thought I'd ask.
