Do I have to create a new eBay account every time I ask a question here?

i am sorry to say this but it's annoying...


Whenever I ask a question here, I find many people who almost live here in eBay community and who do not answer the question as much as they go to check your history on eBay community and link the questions together, although I write some questions here based on the requests of some friends who sell on eBay and do not have sufficient knowledge of English, so I ask questions on their behalf because the goal is the same, which is advice and knowing the answers to the questions.
Some people here, unfortunately, have nothing to do but attack for the purpose of attacking without any reason
Do they think it is that difficult to hide past questions if it's bad which it's not but i can tell CREATING a new eBay account will not cost me more than a minute and a half, or perhaps less, but I do not do that because I do not do anything, say anything, or ask about anything that makes me afraid that people will see what I wrote in the past. No, I am not that person.
some people here told me that my account should be getting a lot of reports for what i post and what i ask but i don't care and i believe that if eBay is taking blu**bleep**s of those people seriously it would have blocked me now but it didn't and i am almost sure it will not because i believe eBay agents are impartial.


This certainly does not negate the existence of some truly wonderful people who answer my questions with the utmost objectivity, honesty, and enthusiasm for help and advice. I greatly appreciate them and feel grateful all the time to them. Some of them I write to directly for calm advice away from the noise of unjustified attacks and bullying.
I repeat my gratitude to the wonderful people, but others can only be ignored by me.

 

sincerely i apologize for the length of the article, but I wanted to reveal this thing that I have noticed for a long time here

tons of people report me already but eBay doesn't take their reports seriously as i am informed by customer service that all i am saying or discussing is welcome and nothing to worry about.

The discussion boards are not monitored by eBay but by a third party named Khoros.

 

Ebay customer service wouldn’t know anything about any of your posts being reported.

< they go to check your history on eBay community >     

 

Depending on the question, I'll also check your feedback, feedback left for others, selling history, and anything else I can access.  Sometimes it's important to take into account the specific question in light of the context and/or experiences of the questioner.  In addition, often, in a thread, when other replies have addressed the specific question, I will answer a question that was not asked, but that I think would help in the enlightenment.  I also consider that third parties could be viewing the thread for years to come.

At least one of the OP's post hints that they may not be located in the USA. While anyone can use the USA boards to ask questions, buy or sell on, if you are not located in the USA you are breaking eBay rules by registering and using USA as your location. You need to use the actual country you are located in. 

Not all questions can be answered by the people here, there are some differences between what and how eBay operates in different countries. Sometimes those questions need to be answered by the someone in the country that person is located in.

'Customer service' will tell you what you want to hear so they can get on to the next call. As has been explained to you, they have absolutely nothing to do with the boards. The boards are monitored by Khoros, and they are quick to react to repetitive spam threads that clutter up the board.

Typical reply from the off-shore eBay CSR is................................ "no worries"

 

That is often because they do not understand your issue.

 

They read from a "script". 

 

When they cannot apply a scripted answer they tell you...................... "no worries".

 

The scenarios that you have offered up here indeed do have "worries" and can result in account problems for the "friends" that you are attempting to assist.

 

Take the guidance from where you choose, or live with the results is all that can be suggested.

 

You are of course allowed to post here, but as you believe little that is provided by experienced buyers and sellers here, rather than creating a new ID (as you have posted) to not be recognized, perhaps you should refrain from asking questions here and stick with eBay customer service for their "official" guidance.

 

Do be advised that just because eBay CS tells you something does not mean that they can be held responsible for what happens if your "friends" follow that advise and have a problem.

I'm far from the smartest person on these boards, as far as wasting time goes, I'd vote you as king of that category.

I saw one of the pm's you sent somebody.   It was neither calm nor advice-seeking.  


I'm insulted. I must not offer calm advice away from the noise. I didn't get a PM. 😀

Thanks for voting
In any case, time is inevitably wasted. Long or short, it is wasted. Whether we live, no matter how long we live, we are dead.
If you invest your time to achieve the greatest profit or do anything you want, that will not make any difference from someone wasting his time and not doing anything, for the end is the same, which is dust and decay.

That's a pretty vacant outlook on life... I guess you've never heard of soul growth.

LOL! you are absolutely right. I'm no longer insulted.

 

I got a PM asking about sales tax evasion by having items shipped to states without taxes and expecting that USPS will forward it to their location.
