Here is the error I am getting. For some reason, I am unable to take trades from this specific user. I am able to take trades from other users. Is something wrong with my account?

It might be either you have added the peer’s onion address to your list of ignored peers or vice versa.

To see your list of ignored peers go to Settings, Preferences

Check the onion addresses added to the ignored peers list.

Sounds like they added you to their ignore list. It could be for any reason. Once a user is added to the ignore list then both traders cannot take each others offers.

i just tried the ignored feature. If you set as ignored, user won’t be able to see you and i shouldn’t be able to see user. but that’s the opposite. I can see user.

You can still see the offers, you just are unable to take them and vice versa.
