  Gonna express this here under suggestions, for lack of a better topic to use.
But no need to vote or take too serious Just looking for candid feedback on
the idea of rebranding the sometimes divisive feature

As the Stop List is a unidirectionally action, I thought a more descriptive term
for the outdated and sometimes confusing phrase, could easily replace it. Some
other descriptor that would serve both buyer and seller better.

Decline Service List, Refuse Service List, Excluded from Service, Service
Exclusion List
, or whatever you might come up with other than just “stop

Just today’s over caffeinated thinking, and frankly not all that important. I
mean, ambiguous as stop sometimes comes across to the uninitiated here, the phrase
has been around a long time. There’s that to consider, but on the other hand
“don’t stop improving” is a good mantra and attitude to maintain.

stop is the proper civilized terminology...
it portrays what the seller wants to occur, stopping any sales.

"Decline & Refuse" entails the order was placed, yet the seller is not
wanting to complete the sale

"Exclusion & Exclude" are just long-form versions of Stop.

considering BL is a global sales site, 'Stop' is likely the most Universal
word that is easily understood & tranlated to the entire BL customer base.

Appreciate the input. Thanks
