Are you serious? I'm quoting directly from the rules you agreed to abide buy upon purchasing vending privileges. http://dkn255hz262ypmii.onion/wiki/index.php?title=Seller%27s_Guide#Listing Perhaps you should re-read them, as breaking the terms of the Seller contract (http://silkroadvb5piz3r.onion/silkroad/register_seller), which includes all the terms set out in the [EDIT: Seller's] Guide, will lead to you having your account suspended. Yes, I did. If you break the rules, expect to be pulled up on it. That 'average user' was not expected to create a vendor account to sell you 10 minutes of his spare time for 0.1 BTC, but you were expected to create a listing on YOUR vendor account so as he could purchase 0.1 BTC from you in exchange for 10 minutes of his spare time. Why are you attempting to make me look like the bad guy here when you're the one breaking the rules that you agreed to abide by? TorChat is different than PMs here not because I differentiate between the two, but because DPR differentiates between the two and has stated as part of the Seller contract that you are not to instruct buyers to contact you off-site. If you have an issue with this, feel free to take it up the chain to them. Encryption is certainly advised, and I commend you for encouraging its use. Libertas
