What is the PANIC button?
The PANIC button is our peer-to-peer conflict resolution system. If someone doesn’t return an item on time, for instance, you can push the PANIC button. The PANIC button sends a message to the person (as well as to us) and marks his/her profile with a very visible public alert that can be seen by everyone on NeighborGoods: “This user is involved in an unresolved transaction problem!” The alert remains on the profile until the user resolves the issue with you and you remove it. If a member is repeatedly causing panics, we may decide to disable his/her account.
