How about a permanent boot if you don't reply to negative feedback. I always check that section and see the same names with a lot of negative feedback but not a single rebuttal. Let's get them out of here so they don't spoil deals for others.

Not a fan of this idea. Actually I had to go look for the "Negative Feedback" forum. Didn't know it existed and I have been a member here for a few years.

Let those who are interested in a member look for something if they so desire but a permanent boot for failure to defend oneself in a forum that could be very subjective does not sound like a very good idea to me. One can post the experience on a members profile. I usually check that.
This idea smacks too much of Facebook like efforts to weed out the considered undesirable(s).

sounds like babysitting adults to me, agree with paratus on this

All negative feedback on a member gets posted in the Negative Feedback forum. Positive feedback goes in a member’s profile.

I agree with CWA’s recent comment here:

I’ve had that same experience a couple of times. A member wastes my time for a week, bails on the deal, and then doesn’t respond to negative feedback. As long as I can sound the alarm on the RARELY encountered, deadbeat member, I’m satisfied.

Have you met an average American adult lately?

I've advocated for more enforcement around here for a decade. I doubt it's ever going to happen.

Forgot to mention the handful of guys from several years ago who were members with multiple negative feedback posts. At least two of them are serving time in federal prison for gun running/straw buying. How many negative feedback posts did TacoTuesday have?

Damn... that is some funny stuff there... THANKS for the recollection.
