Hello I need to blacklist a thief. How is the procedure? Is it possible not to let this thief publish in Proz?

Are you referring to a non-payer? Jul 19, 2005

Hi Laura,
As it wouldn't make much sense to use ProZ.com to talk about someone who stole something from your house, I take it that "thief" means non-payer.

ProZ.com operates a Termination Policy, according to which non-payers may be banned from using the site for job postings, or have their profile(s) removed. A team of Jobs/BB moderators helps to enforce this policy.... See more
Hi Laura,
As it wouldn't make much sense to use ProZ.com to talk about someone who stole something from your house, I take it that "thief" means non-payer.

ProZ.com operates a Termination Policy, according to which non-payers may be banned from using the site for job postings, or have their profile(s) removed. A team of Jobs/BB moderators helps to enforce this policy.

As a first step, may I suggest you check whether the outsourcer concerned is listed in the ProZ.com Blue Board; assuming that you fulfil the conditions set out in the BB FAQ, please go ahead and post an entry there. If you post an LWA (likelihood of working again) level of 1 or 2, you will be prompted to post a non-payment report, which will be picked up, and acted upon, by moderators.

In view of your posting, may I add that BB entries should focus on the facts, and should not include personal comments.


Contact me through my profile if you have any further questions.

Best regards,
Ralf

Lack of details Jul 26, 2005

Hi again,
Hello Ralf, I entered all the info

Not quite - in fact, we're still trying to sort out the details, as the address you provided does not match the outsourcer's information shown on their website.

but I did not receive any blacklist relating message,

You wouldn't, as the Blue Board is not a blacklist.
Notifications will be sent out the moment a BB record has been approved by a moderator; if all details are provided, that happens very quickly - if we need to search for details, it may take a while.

and i either can't see the FLE blueboard entrance of LWA 1 I did.

This is because BB entries are vetted by moderators. I have vetted your entry, but we're still working on the BB record.

Best regards,
Ralf
