If a request asking said user to stop serially agreeing with your initial IDs hadn’t worked, what about these alternatives?
If you withdraw your ID and theirs is the only one present, it would knock it out of RG. If a 3rd identifier asks why you withdrew the ID, mention that you don’t have high confidence in serial agreer’s identifications?
A more direct option may be to remark each new initial observation ID with “Please ignore @username’s concurring ID”, which should discourage said user from agreeing in the first place.
It’s better to do this in the initial ID than in notes because on some platforms (the Android app) it shows the IDs first and looking at notes takes extra clicking, so can easily be missed.
No worries at all. I should have written to the first commenter to let them know they were replying about a different thread, but I thought it was no big deal, just when I got another comment today I thought I should probably redirect comments as the person who asked the question may miss out on your answers. I am sorry for singling you out with your follow up comment today - I will redirect the others as well.
I see that, but I mean the question I posted was whether I leave an ID vague if I am unsure of it. (Some one else accidentally posted a response to a different question in the wrong thread). I am just wondering whether the person who posted about blocking users will miss out on the information since it was not posted in their thread.
Yes, but there’s a message that both contained an answer to your topic and some more info and theme wandered off a little bit, but people are notified of responses no matter where they post their message, so they won’t miss out. If you wish you can ask a moderator to close the topic if you think you got your answer so people will discuss other things somewhere else.
