Thats rather harsh and does not warrant an entry in a "banned from trading" list as it woult put them almost in the same category with scammers. If a trader is unreliable or slow with accepting brokers you can post in their feedback thread. That should be enough IMO.
If you wish to make an apple pie from scratch, you must first invent the universe.
Keep smiling, it makes people wonder what you're up to

I think its only fair. If they don't know how to use the market, they don't belong there.

I'm in the middle of what is probably my 4th such encounter, where someone makes a post selling UU, they post "broker me" and then bugger off and don't accept it even when it's less than 30 minutes after their OP.
If I sell, I make sure I'm ONLINE and that when I go OFFLINE that I make sure it's noted in my thread. It's bad form to leave people waiting is it not?
Why do people post up "broker me" and then go away for hours at a time?
Couldn't agree more. I'm always online when I'm selling

Agreed.. Examp[ple, I'm trying to sell 3k AT right now, contacted a person who said he was buying, haven't heard from him.. I can't sit refreshing the page continuously, and no way my bank can hold that much, so I'm not inclined to initiate the trade, i want it to complete when I am RIGHT THERE, thank you very much. when receiving Naq, I can't bring myself to initiate a trade that may not be completed for hours.

I'm amused at whoever suggested banning players of this nature. A little overzealous, don't you think? All we can really do it ask people to be more considerate, and note whether or not they're online in their thread title.

Re: People who put up a forum post then bugger off for hours.

Re: People who put up a forum post then bugger off for hours.
I had a huge naq hanging for 2 days in the broker. He didn't even reply or canceled the trade at all. It really gets annoying. I almost got my trils of naq farmed when the broker ended.

Errm, no mate, I dont think I've deleted any of yours personally. I may have but don't really remeber doing it if I did. I was saying there are people who put online in their thread title, complete the deal and never close or change the thread title.
Was not aimed at you in any way mate.
