How do you Mask your Username when bidding on an item?
Comments
Why do you want to do that?
Don't bid
"Don"
There used to be a forum member called “iwannausername”.
Mask it from whom? Lemme tell ya, your wife is going to find out. Just stay on the up and up.
And fiery auto crashes
Some will die in hot pursuit
While sifting through my ashes
Some will fall in love with life
And drink it from a fountain
That is pouring like an avalanche
Coming down the mountain
Covid is on Gunbroker ?
Asking about masking ones user name reeks of something hinky to me.
It is only masked when you are looking while not logged in I believe.
Masking bidder's usernames? If I'm locked in a bidding duel over Dale Earnhardt's leaf blower, I need to know the competition.
Seriously.....WHY ?
Maybe I'm mistaken, but didn't Gun Broker test the blocking of bidder names until the auction closed, at which time they'd be revealed? The seller could view the bidder's name during the auctions, but other bidders could not. This might have been four or five years back. It proved unpopular and didn't last long.
In the meantime, I have Dale's lawnmower and his edger...I have to get that leaf blower!
Beware Mark! That blower you are bidding on is an electric model! 😲 Everybody knows Dale would only choose a leaf blower that runs on high octane gas! 😁
