What Is The Purpose Of The Community Chat?

[wrong66]

I didn't see a single answer yesterday that offered a solution. What a waste of time, IMO.

Community chat. It's in the name. There, now you have a solution.

[wrong66]

Sounds like one of yesterday's answers.

So why are you still wasting your time here. Considering the lameness of many of the posts here...there are no answers.

I have actually found a lot of answers here, but you need to search a little. When you have 20 people starting a thread regarding the exact same thing, some will not be addressed as the answer is already out there.

Kind of place to practice answering like a politician

Oooo...

That's the soapbox arena and I NEVER go there...it's too scary and Halloween is over...

Well I will go with the devil advocate:

The folks doing the chat on eBay's side must have very thick hides. Not an easy thing to do;

Questions that the folks do not have ready answers to and upset customers can be hard to deal with.

Put your self on the other side. It not like posting to the boards as we users do. they have things they can and of course can not say.

Not even sure that the folks doing it on eBay's side get all the facts from eBay these days...seems that is a interesting inside problem as well.

I thank em for trying to do such.

Not sure I could do it... with out previews to my posts by some one that would keep me out of trouble with the upper crust of eBay..... LOL

Edited.

The board is here to help people who actually need help.   Not everyone gets the help they need, we do not get paid to do this.  We do it to be nice.

And many (most) questions are easily answered.  Some are not so easy and maybe no one knows the answer.

And if you don't like it here, you don't have to be here, so don't feel obligated.
