I did see that, thought it was great, cheered meup no end!
The requests section is broken for both sellers and buyers. My inbox got flooded last month with 100+ messages filled with domains that were not even close to what we had requested, "brokers" that had zero right to be shopping the domains, and blatant spam.
One guy wanted a commission for giving me whois details of a domain that wasn't even for sale.
I posted in the original thread and got this -

I think it is ridiculous that NamePros is allowing this type of garbage to clutter the forum.
Brad
But to be fair they need to be deleted, Namepros cannot be allowing people's threads to get crashed. Now I agree about not being allowed and I believe you should have to be here for a min time before being allowed to post. Where is the vetting? The experience? And no matter the age of the member, if the thread is impossible, meaning no one would sell for the budget stated, it's deleted. If Namepros can have something in place for TopDomains and they claim they know every name that's min $1,000 wholesale they can do that here in domains wanted.
Fair enough, but maybe they need to be more concerned about cleaning the clutter from the marketplace. These non-sense buy requests, people offering some garbage domain with 100+ bumps.
It is a complete waste of space.
Brad
Brad you know I agree my point was then that goes to people commenting in borderline threads. There have been a few lower budget LLL.com threads so then people can crash that, and then someone says you want Crypto names for $50 do you know Crypto.com sold for $12 million?
It just never ends I used to mod that section, people keep posting the most outrageous thread.
What did you think of the proposal I made?
Tested the theory again today and 90% of messages failed the basic instructions. I surrender for now.

Please report these rule violations using the "Report" link on those direct messages. We need to issue the necessary warnings and/or restrictions to improve the process by stopping those who violate the rules.Tested the theory again today and 90% of messages failed the basic instructions.
NamePros is going to need to take a stance on this. If they leave the thread open it is pathetic.
Thanks for the suggestion. We prefer to solve this problem with automated tools, so that will be our focus.I believe you should have to be here for a min time before being allowed to post.

The ignore thread (hide thread) feature and filters are the ways we plan to accomplish that.Fair enough, but maybe they need to be more concerned about cleaning the clutter from the marketplace.
There are many levels of investors, and tools are the way we plan to cater to them all. Rules cannot accomplish that.I am a serious buyer and have bought many thousands of dollars of domains on NamePros and would not mind some type of vetting process.
Agreed.The issues we are discussing would never be resolved to 100% satisfaction of all parties. It is technically impossible IMO.
We may make exceptions sometimes, but for the most part, we are not going to decide what is reasonable or realistic.NamePros is fine with these worthless threads wasting space.

That is for buyers and sellers to decide.
Of course. It's not about education. Tools are always better than rules, but not everything can be made into a tool. This can.Offering $50 - $150 for something that costs more than a new Ferrari?
It doesn't take a real genius to come to the conclusion that it is unreasonable.
It must have something to do with the business ($$$) end of NP then. More visitors. More banner clicks. Just a thought, I do not know really...So, even when reported, NamePros is fine with these worthless threads wasting space.
Constructive.Cool. We will let the market decide!
