Regular system updates and glitches

I've noticed that whenever there is a system update, lots of glitches start happening. I've been effected by them and the problem is that these glitches usually affect my bottom line. I can go from regular consistant sales to practically no sales during the time it takes the team to fix the bugs. It makes me wonder if too many upgrades are being pushed through.  Perhaps trying less updates at a time? I have experienced several of these technical issues over the last couple of years. All have been difficult to endure.  Please take a look at your sellers and the impact it has on them. Thanks for your consideration.

Regular system updates and glitches

I read a while back in a article about their last CEO when he stepped down. It said one of his brilliant ideas to improve eBay was to reduce the number of servers. So when they run updates to make changes or fix problems from not testing their work before sending updates live the servers are getting overloaded. Supposedly he did this to reduce cost but computers getting over worked actually causes more issues and cost more money then when running efficiently.

Given the problems being encountered that makes perfect sense. Okay, I got the message, now how can we convey that message to eBay, so they consider fixing the problem. The problem being, "NOT ENOUGH SERVERS"!
