Just an observation and a bit of wonder.

I have seen numerous posts here where the poster apparently believes they are talking direct to eBay. One or more respondents will point out that there is no one here from eBay.

And yet, over the years (including just in the past day or two) I have received “helpfuls” on my posts from what we normally call the “eBay Blues” (without them having been "tagged" in the first place).

So then eBay does watch what we write? (Not the bots, but the Blues themselves)?

Yes, the Blues do look at the Board, even when not called in to respond. However, this is NOT a Customer Service vehicle, and coming here and addressing ebay and anticipating a reply from an ebay rep of some sort as if this were a Customer Service Page of some sort is a mistake. This is a peer to peer Board, nothing more.

I've gotten 'Helpfuls' from the Blues. I can only assume they're watching when they want to, which is okay by me. 👍

Same here- many times. Almost ALL from the same person. So, someone is watching these threads.

I believe in the past we've been told that summaries of the Board's content are created and passed on to ....well, whoever gets them. But again, of course, the Blues look at the Boards. That's never been in question.

The problem is when posters come here and assume that their particular post will actually be given any attention by official ebaydom. That is not the purpose of the Board.

Have always seen likes, here and there from the blues. They stop in when they have the time and see fit.

Blue stuff, though I'd sweep floors, too. I'm not proud.
