Report bidders in questions and answers?

Hayley, it's not a problem for people to make offers in Q & A, as long as contact details are not exchanged. If you don't like the offer, you can just answer the question along the lines of... Thanks for your offer but the lowest price I will accept is the starting price of the auction. Please feel free to bid. Thanks.
If you are constantly getting the same people asking or it's just not appropriate, don't answer the question, blacklist the member(s) and use the Community Watch link at the bottom of the auction and ask Trademe to remove the questions for you.

If they are putting in phone numbers for example you can do a community watch. Which is the little sherifs badge at the bottom of every listing.
Just follow the prompts, select Q&A feature being abused. Word it something like this =
"Hi there! I am reporting my own listing, Someone is sharing personal details in the Q&A, can this be removed please, also I have had this problem before, can you also email them, to ask them to not abuse the Q&A like this. Thank you for your trouble."
T-Me staff will remove it, they just need a couple of days to get it done.

You are welcome Hayley.
Personally I do wish there was a simple "Report this Question" feature, not just for your situation, which is common enough, but also to report trolling and low balling, some buyers treat the Q&A like a facebook forum as well, to share the opinions, rather than ask legit questions, I think this is something that should be looked at.
