I am getting this message on half of single altcoin offers. For example Siacoin, in the [picture](https://imgur.com/a/gwydx). One offer i am seeing i can buy from, and the other is greyed out asking me for an arbitrator. Whats the deal with this? ---

This seems like the same error from this topic: [https://forum.bisq.io/t/error-you-dont-have-an-arbitrator-selected-except-i-do/3337](https://forum.bisq.io/t/error-you-dont-have-an-arbitrator-selected-except-i-do/3337) To quote Manfred: > [@Error: You don't have an arbitrator selected (except I do!)](https://bisq.community/t/error-you-dont-have-an-arbitrator-selected-except-i-do/3337/7): > > Ah I understand now. He has created the offer when I was the only arbitrator. Now there are 2 other arbitrators and as he has only one which is not active anymore there is no match of the arbitrators between maker and taker. I will try to contact the peer to let him know to remove/re-create the offer. So basically you can’t take that offer. The arbitrators for that offer are not available anymore.
