As a seller the setting to turn off the ability to be contacted is not available.
You need to be available apparently to conduct business. OK fine.

I have a youtube channel and I have gotten my fair share of messages that were
solely about a video or something I posted on my channel. I've put a message
on the contact form that these messages will be ignored. I want to keep my communication
on Bricklink solely for business on Bricklink.

I now have a new situation where a viewer of my channel messaged me a couple
of times starting on October 23rd before placing an order and has since messaged
me everyday since. After the order was sent the messages turned to topics on
my Youtube channel which I ignored as stated.

Everyday is a message asking why have I blocked them. Even messaging me on other
platforms. Based on the information of the user I obtained through the order
I am fairly certain the user is in middle school but I have no proof.

Yesterday I reported the user for unsolicited messages. Still waiting for that
to be actioned.

After today's message I stop listed them in hopes that would block them from
messaging me in the future. However after testing with another seller we found
that the user will still be able to message me.

Is there no way to block a user from messaging you?

Sorry to hear that is happening to you, I think you made a good choice in reporting
them to bricklink and hopefully that should be able to fix it

If you believe that the user is underage, report them here https://www.bricklink.com/problemMember.asp

when I click on the message icon it says I cannot message you, so you can turn
it off as a seller. And as far as I can tell you did not put me on your stop
list.

I think the person bought from them and since they bought from them, they are
able to send a message.

You can always contact sellers through their shops (“contact” button on top left).

Can you set up email filters to auto delete email and forwarded bl messages from
them?

Then for onsite messages, just don't open them. Delete them once a week without
reading them so they can see you are not looking at them.

Hi ralph. This is me. I am sorry for doing this. I did not see the message until
today. I hope that one day we can resolve this solution so I can order from your
store again. Thank you for inspiring me to try to make my own bricklink store.
Have a nice day sir.

Also, there is a way to still message you which is how I am doing it. But I will
stop because I understand the frustration you are having about me, and im sorry
for messaging you. The way you can still message is on your shop page on the
top left.
