4channel, some observations for you.
- Pretty much all you do is complain. If it's not feedback, it's GSP. If it's not GSP, it's some other detail/process/fee/idiosyncrasy you're unhappy with or think eBay have wrong.
Yeah I do complain a bit don't I! Well OK, I have suppported others who have come to compain about GSP etc.. And eBay doesn't have it right all the time. And this forum is the forum for buyers to discuss things, have an occasional vent and get some support as well. Also toss things around to explore ways to get an improvement on a situation. Some members here don't see it like that.

- Using phrases like those above ("...god complex, delusions of grandeur") to characterise people disagreeing with you about things like feedback periods and shipping methods -- it just comes across as juvenile. Simply put, you have unpopular opinions and suggestions, but continue to go on about them like the proverbial broken record. If you don't like people disagreeing with you, stop posting them on a public forum.
- "But it's not right!" -- who are you to decide what is right? If you're convinced that you are right and others are wrong then isn't that a symptom of the "...very selfish attitudes..." you're accusing others of exhibiting?
I had a feeling the terms I selected would bring either yourself out another regular back into this discussion but I wasn't baiting anyone anyway. OK
The phrases I used such as ".god complex, delusions of grandeur" only applies to that small group of bullies I mentioned in that post. They are the ones who have been working this forum for a while, attempting to intimidate newbies and even humiliate some to a degree. I reserve those phrases I made only for that small clique. Others that disagree with me, well some may be right. Possibly more than I think. maybe, maybe not! Those others I feel are not right and I'll tell them so. That's my prerogative. And you'll notice in that post, digital-ghost who disagrees with me, I don't include in the bully bunch. I have also said to k-sales I don't include him in that either. I respect any non-bully's POV, but if I believe it's no right I'll say so.
As for the bullying, it's been noted by other people here. One other who mentioned that behaviour here was banned. When I agreed with him about the bullying, a reply was made to me saying he can't be trusted because he was a rip-off seller or crook. (Something like that). I did some checking on him and I found no evidence of that whatsoever. If this is an outright lie then it's not the first time as I have had some false things posted about me.
Back in 2018, another member said to me, "You can't beat the clique" and I replied something like "it's not about beating them, it's speaking out and not letting them have all the say". Something like that. This person also mentioned their displeasure of seeing a certain lady (and you know who I'm talking about) being picked on. Well, as far as I'm concerned that lady with all her imperfections is OK.
So don't go saying that I'm applying phrases or terms to people in general just because they disagree me. That's false. Oh yeah, that's right, the smalll group of bullies will kudo each other up whether the comment is good, bad or whatever. I have recenttly seen two blatant troll-like posts by individuals of this group get rewarded with kudos from their compadres.
And eBay needs to restore the FB time to 3 months.
