Crazy Members and Privacy re For sale rules

I had an unpleasant experience a few weeks ago which was generated from some forum posts and conflicting views that I dont care to rehash. The shorts of the story is that one 'CRAZY ' member decided that the way to go was to phone me and threaten me with a baseball bat! Apart from the fact that he has never seen me ( I am 6 foot 4" and 120 kg and have played second row for the Australian Wallabies ) these were the actions and response you might expect from someone who was known to be 'CRAZY'. This experience has got me thinking re the For Sale rules and the requirement to enter a phone number. I strongly feel ,as i know others do that this is poor practice and unnecessary, whats more can lead to guzumping where sales are poached from the first intrested posted reply. If people choose to leave a phone number fair enough however an email and U2U should be sufficient if the seller so choses, after all it is in the sellers best intrests to comunicate. I also recieved threatening U2Us and from the same forum member and nuisance posts on my for sales. I had to request my postings be deleted. We cant stop people being 'CRAZY ' but lets make it harder for them! Mitchell
