Spam Messages While Offline

uqhkenzi October 29th, 2018

Recently, I've been recieving messages from members, who I asume must've found me through the listener search while I am offline. Often times these messages come late at night for me/when I am busy with school, thus why I am not online. While some of these members have messaged to set up appointments, as I reccomend in my "About Me", an increasing number of messages from members are becoming irate because I have not answered them within a few minutes, while my status is set to offline, because I am unable to assist at that time. Is there a way to block new messages, from accounts I've not interacted with before, from coming through while I'm offline? It can be very stressful to come back online only to see angry messages from members whom I have not yet had the chance to speak with.

I get those too. I believe they are caused by a bug in the app, but I can't be sure of it. I don't know any way to prevent it from happening, unfortunately, and bugs in the app can take a very long time to fix sad

@RarelyCharlie I hadn't even thought of it coming from the app! I nearly always use the website, aside from quick messages to long time members. Hopefully there will be some sort of fix soon, as it hasn't affected my rating yet, however I fear that it might soon, if these users continue to come through.
