It would be nice to see a way for members to redflag other members even when username is changed. With all the scams going on lately I think this would help minimize them. If it could be shown in the postbit so only the members that have the member redflaged can see it would be nice.
If there is a similar system in place please tell me about. I couldnt find anything.
With a thread I had just seen recently, iTrader just isnt enough.

Currently there is no provision to change usernames at will. It's done manually by the moderators and on a case by case basis.

Thanks

Wouldn't iTrader feedback accomplish the same result? Someone scams you, leave them negative feedback.

Reputation mod is the only thing that comes to mind, I think there was another thread discussing it here.

That'd be a disaster. We have political threads for example. This would give everybody ammunition for an all-out war ;)

Reps in political and general sections could be devalued, like in DP.
I'm not suggesting this, just an option to consider.

Either way it's great that we have an excellent moderators team here who always sort out things quickly and effectively :)

You missed my first post. But anyhow, I have found a solution to my idea.

I'd say you could just save the members userID # if you feel you need to keep a list ;) It won't change like usernames will.

So something like a "reverse" buddy list? You can already block someone by username.
