Changes to the boards.

[padi*0409]

I think everyone here needs to be aware of what eBay is planning for the boards, and also have a look at what they've done to the US and UK boards.

Good Move.

Let's do it again.

BUMP.

Just a reminder, in case someone hasn't actually read all of this thread -

Community Spirit is being moved to Groups heading on July 10th 

It will be a sub-heading of Groups on the Discussion Boards page.

Maybe some need to do a bookmark of that page.

A visual of that page -

Thank you!

Silly me  

A link would be good, eh?

You might have to search for it.

There's an awful lot of rubbish groups in there

I understand that not only will CS be moved to Groups but that the format will change to be similar in appearance to the US boards.

So, not only will CS be buried amongst rubbish groups, but it will adopt a rubbish format, giving the user a rubbish user-experience.

It's almost impressive the way eBay can effect a degradation of their service whilst representing and marketing it as an "improvement".

For the time being we are not going to be saddled with the same format as the US boards but it could well be amongst the further changes being made later this year or next.

The current changes are certainly not all ebay has in store for the Aussie site.

Yet another way for eBay to "enhance" our buying and selling experiences.......................

Will they never learn that if something's not broken it doesn't need "fixing" - I doubt it unfortunately.

................and there are plenty of things that are most certainly broken on the site, that don't appear to need fixing..............sigh.

I wonder whether they will move the Music, Photo & Caption This >>>>>>Fun & Games?
