Just an idea for the BST... say there is some sort of trading dispute that a user posts involving them and another person. Well while the conflict is still going on what about both users get flagged with a small icon near their avatar to tell potential buyers/sellers in BST that the user might be scammer or what not. At the very least it would notify others that the user is currently in the middle of the dispute. Clicking the icon would bring you to the posted thread with the disputed issue.

After the issue is resolved a mod would remove the flag... or if one side of argument suddenly stopped responding and runs away with the money or whatever, of course the other person who got scammed would be unflagged.

I think it would protect the traders in BST that don't have time to sort through all the dispute threads and look at all the individual issues.

well lets see.
we all don`t live in a major city,with more chances of finding what you are looking for,and meeting up in person.
nothing wrong with online trading as long as you do your homework,and be smart.
and yes you can get scammed even in person.
as for getting jumped,well if you cant take care of yourself,stay off the mean streets of the big TO

IMO it's a lot more work for Admin when it's a buyer beware environment.

Honestly, laziness to check out their sellers/buyers should be left to Admin.
