Since discovering the user blocking feature a while ago I have enjoyed a lot better experience of this forum, it really does clearly identify that nearly all of the trouble is caused by a small number of individuals.
It also shows that a high proportion of the classified ad space is dominated by a small number of very pushy traders (usually with no prices) and a small number of pseudo-traders constantly trying to sell stuff.
I had reason to view the site recently without logging in (therefore you see the stuff that would otherwise have been blocked) and, I have to say, I was a little shocked at how unpleasant and unprofessional some aspects of the forum have become.
Please remember that, as far as I know, anyone can view this site. A bored investigative journalist with half an idea about shooting and a bit of an anti-shooting slant could generate quite a bit of material from things on here.
