Ebay SNAFU

Stuart Johnson wrote: The DNF Board is the "Discuss Newest Features" board on Ebay. Before everyone got suspended, it was one of the best places to get answers to almost any question about ebay. It also had the reputation among the pinks (ebay staff who occassionaly visit the boards, pinks because that is the color of their header when they post) of being the DMZ. It also had the reputation of being the first place that any problems with ebay were found and posted. Most of the regulars expected the worst from ebay "management", and were rarely disappointed. Most of the regulars who were suspended are over at the SYI lounge at http://www.sellyouritem.com/Lounge.html. At least there, you can ask questions and not worry about the ever changing rules and interpretations present on ebay. Least I be too misunderstood, the concept of online auctions is a great one. However Ebay has chosen to rape the concept with little consideration given to the community that helped build it. A few of the problems include a search engine that doesn't always work properly, site reliabiity problems, the HH (hoops and hurdles) factor when it comes to needing support, an ever increasing amount of fraud, and the list goes on.
