Unplanned Community Outage

[rebecca@ebay]

Hello all,

For about 8 hours from midnight to 8 am PST the community had an error that was preventing login. This impacted all eBay communities globally, but now has been fixed. With luck most of you here in the US were not aware since it happened during our night and early morning. There was no known impact to your stores or other areas of the eBay website. 

I'm sorry for the issues if it affected you or your ability to access the community here. The problems now have been resolved and the team is working to investigate how to prevent it happening again. Please let me know if you have any questions!

I spoke with some guy in Philippines who gave me double talk to hide the fact that ebay is always down. why does ebay always go down. amazon does not have that trouble. what does amazon have that you ebay does not have.
