📣 Send an FYI to everyone

Everyone on UseMart - members and visitors, phone and PC - sees it once. One at a time: a new one replaces the old, and it ends on its own, so nobody sees old ones later.

The 'Owner FYI' switch is OFF - turn it on in the switch list below so people see it.

📋 Facebook group directory

On Facebook, search Groups (e.g. "your town buy sell"), scroll so the results load, select the page (Ctrl+A), copy (Ctrl+C) and paste into the box. Every group comes in with its link, members and posts a day; busiest first. Copying a page you're looking at is fine - UseMart never logs in to Facebook.

⚖ Rating disputes

A member says a rating they got is wrong. Uphold = the rating is hidden from their score (kept on file).

0-100 scores worked out from verified deals only (never a plan or payment). Members see them only once "TrustScore 0-100 (public)" is on above. No number below Provisional (5+ events, 3+ people, 2+ deals). Weights are provisional.

🔒 Locked handshake codes

A seller typed the buyer's 4-digit code wrong 5 times, so code entry stopped for that pickup (both of them were told). They can still both tap "We met - mark done". Unlock only after you've checked with them - a stranger guessing codes is exactly what this stops.

⚖ Takedown requests

Legal requests from the 'Report a legal problem' page. Intimate-image (TAKE IT DOWN Act) and copyright (DMCA) items are hidden already - decide before the clock runs out. Remove = gone for good (kept on file; for intimate images every item with the same photo goes too). Reject = request closed, the item stays held until you Approve it in the Review queue.

What people searched for that nobody near them sells (demo items don't count) - ideas for WantFinder and for recruiting sellers. Only the words and the first 3 digits of the ZIP are kept, never who searched; kept 90 days. Counted while 'Real search' is ON.

Contact UseMart messages and reports about members or messages (item reports stay in the Review queue). Answer = it shows on the member's Help page (no email). For a reported message you can read that message and the few around it - every read is logged.

The prohibited-items words every new post, edit, Bulk Upload and Mail2List item is checked against. Whole words only; with 'Stronger rulebook' ON they also catch plurals, common spellings and simple disguises (gl0ck, a$$). 'Unless' phrases excuse ordinary items (glue gun, wine rack). Hold = a person decides in the Review queue; Refuse = the seller is told no and nothing is saved. Rules are never deleted - Disable keeps them on file. Every change is logged.

Named campaign links for a Facebook group, a flyer or an ambassador, plus every member link that brought someone in. Joined = accounts made from the link (first link wins; the referrer's own email in another form and demo members never count); Posted = of those, posted an item; Deals = completed a handshake pickup. More than 20 sign-ups on one link in 24 hours is flagged - nothing happens on its own. Links are never deleted - Disable stops new sign-ups counting. No rewards yet.

🛡 Review queue

Items the rulebook held and items members reported. Approve puts it back live; Remove takes it off UseMart for good (kept on file).
