So every now and then I like to scroll through the Marketplace, to window shop, and ask the basic questions to prove validity of the Merchandise.
1 thing that pisses me off is when I see an Offer of goods, in a locked thread with no option to respond; sometimes a self moderated thread is just as bad.. This is generally a scam. Here is an example
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/3-s9-antminers-3545002Now the OP covers one of my questions which would be a picture with username and date, but makes no mention of Escrow. I have not contacted them but it was an example I came across this evening.
What I would like the ability to do is link a new thread to that one, so that it stays either below or above it at all times. This way you could post a title that specifically points to that thread and has questions you want answered or the responses you receive from communications with the OP.
I get it the Forum does not actively fight against scams, but some members here chose to try and prevent this from becoming a thieves den.
And yes it won't be perfect, but only in the same sense that any troll can spam a thread anyways, or leave retaliatory feedback.
