During the last week I have had 2 new bricklink members (obviously they have
"0" score).

Both made an order, both failed to pay or communicate and now I get inundated
with abusive messages from 1 of them Order 28836858 User: leigion

After 5 days I NPB, I then lifted the NPB the following day and chose to OCR
and then ban them from my store. Life is just easier that way for me.

Message ID 70576390

You little crybaby dork LOL you think I care if you ban me from your store, you
are a literal nobody I could get this set from 1000 different stores and I was
just looking to see how much shipping was in the first place. You must make absolutely
no money off this if you just ban people for a tiny first offense, what a terrible
business decision. You might have made $50 off my purchase but now you will make
0. Maybe think twice and then three times next time you decide to be a c*cksucker.
And if you think I care about Bricklink, I don't, I made this account like
2 weeks ago I could just make another account and buy the same set and you would
have no idea.

time

If I ban someone how can they even message me?

I believe even if banned, if there is an active order, they can still message
(tho I may be mistaken, but in regards to email, they will have your email forever
so it’s best to block them in your email client). Sorry to hear that buyer is
being bad, might be best to report them for being underage as I can’t image an
adult would say such things (sarcasm)

Already blocked all email access.

I am not going to report him, I have banned him..If Sylvain or someone wants
to deal with him they can. No seller should have to put up with this behaviour.

I am not going to waste another second of my life on him.

I would take a few more seconds and block them on Paypal and Stripe.

You answer to my question may require you to treat me like a fool, so feel free
to dumb it down and do exactly that.

How do I block someone on Paypal that I have never had a "financial"
dealing with and refuse to.

I know, I just don't want weeks of BS. Block and move on. My point was no
Member/Seller should have to put up with this kind of malicious behaviour......Hence
I am not reporting it.

Your logic puzzles me.....
Maybe it's not logical?

Honestly I am not confident anything would be done anyways. Its not logic, its
more my level of confidence. Admins, cataloguers, may god have mercy on my soul
but even Sylvain works hard. I strongly recommend no man ever calls Vicki a "B1itch
or C%^&sucker" in my presence live. It angers me greatly, and I don't
like staying angry.

There are several members in this thread that have actually been in our house
several times. Vicki has been in a wheelchair as a paraplegic since 1993. She
was 6 years old when the accident occured. I met Vicki in 2007, we have lived
together since. She does not deserve to be spoken to this way by anyone.

Me I'm a bit different given my military, security and law enforcement background.
I have been called a lot worse by a lot bigger, badder and better people.

I try and be fair. He was a classic NPB. It was then removed, did an OCR and
banned him. I should have just left the NPB there, but even still they do get
3 chances.

But you are right I have a duty to advise Admins. This was done a few minutes
ago via the help desk and also linking this Post.

Sadly, there is still no option to report any message here. You can only reply
or delete it.
Hope this could me a major change in the future !

Unless it's changed in the last 5 years or so, blocking someone will not
stop them from sending messages to your inbox here. I had someone years ago that
I had to ask the admin to step in because they just would not stop. I don't
know if they actually got blocked or just a stern warning.

Thanks Crystal.....As I said to another member in this thread last night I didn't
initially report because I lacked confidence.

I was very very wrong about my pessimistic view and confidence.

I filed that complaint last night. The Help desk wrote to us this morning and
have escalated it to the Admins.

I dont think its proper of me to show the Help Desks response. But I can say
they were crystal clear that this type of conduct goes against the ToS.

But I leave this message for the Admin that handles it "God forgives, I don't
and nor should Bricklink"

Thanks for the info, Crystal. I was unsure at first but I did report it last
night. The Help Desk responded and sent it to the Admins. This kind of behavior
breaks the rules. I hope Bricklink takes it seriously.
