It seems as time goes by there's always a consistent amount of trolling going on, as well as a fair share of people who are having trading disputes over who's in the wrong and who should have to do what to make it right.

Rather than clutter it up in the For Sale/Trade forum, it'd be nice to have a sub-forum within the For Sale/Trade forum.

Unresolved deals and disputes could all fall under this sub-forum. Once someone is a confirmed troll it could then be posted in the For Sale/Trade forum as is the standard now, as well as placing them in the "Traders To Avoid" thread.

This would also help Anand'rs check on a particular person they are dealing with, and if they've had any less than stellar trades in the past.

It really saddens me to see what has happened to FS/FT.

Years ago I made a suggestion that we set up a special Paypal account for donations. They we could all chip in so M4H could fly out and have a talk with the Trolls. It never came about.

Most of those trade disputes are just two iffy traders doing their bitching in public instead of via PM. It might be good entertainment, but it doesn't belong in FS/T in my opinion.

I haven't been in there much lately, but I can always remember there being trolling.. what's changed? If you play it safe (only deal with established traders, or demand they ship/pay first), it seems like it's pretty hard to be ripped off.
