Serious poll~~

Do you think it is about time eBay had a close look at "Report Button Abuse"?

Some posts that have 'earned' slaps have been for smilies, words like, ..it, common denominator, maturity, Ranga, befuddlement...... and the list goes on and on.

I am sure everyone can add a few of there own that have been slapped, not because they violated board policy but because someone was bored and thought it was "fun" to press the button.

Now we are getting the idea 😄

The way to change an injustice is not to accept it.

Vocalize your concerns with logic and determination and just maybe the "report button abuse" will be addressed by the powers that be.

Flagging the IDs that are constantly abusing the report button is a definite move in the right direction. Malicious reports could be treated as a violation of board policy and treated accordingly.

Perhaps the malicious reporter would think twice before pressing the report button. 😄

Poddster, there's one ID that's getting very nervous indeed and is starting to defend accusations that haven't even been brought to her - that's a clear sign of guilt. She's incredibly paranoid because she's also not very popular so if it were to be uncovered that her twenty or so fake posting ids are causing most of the problems, she would be hounded out of here. She doesn't have our thick skin 😉 Tee hee....

What do you mean what is my point? I am allowed to respond to incorrect info being spread around about myself .

The top sentence is a quoted post in this thread from rich.in.. it is not a one off post from them, it is ongoing.

If you want my point it is this: I am calling someone out on their posts because they are completely unfounded.

If anyone wants to get the full picture on rich..in.. read the last part of the thread about my daughter marrying a japanese... has stooped to a very low level there.

That is what brings the board down. 

.

Wasn't it you who started a whole thread about lies being spread around about you?? If I remember correctly it went on for ages & there was all sorts of legal bs threats.

You got many replies re your putting personal stuff out there but you seemed to think it wouldn't happen to you because you had "friends" on here.

Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.

So true, lightning. Perhaps am*3 and Lakeland should get together - what a couple they'd make 😉 !

59% would be happy if ebay took some serious notice of the trolls who bp & drive the posters off who have a differing opinion than themselves.

The serial bp'ers who are destroying the diversity of opinions on this forum should be driven off or outed themselves.

If this doesn't concern you then don't vote & don't participate in this type of poll but I see the numnut muppets have had their say with 8% saying don't spoil their fun 26% saying ignore & 8% left to the rubbish that floats around these forums.

[lakeland27]

so you reported the post.

[izabsmiling]

diversity of opinions

would mean anyone muppet or non muppet should vote and/or post

[izabsmiling]

if they so wish

[izabsmiling]

this is a serious poll thread is a seriously funny thread

diversity of opinions

would mean anyone muppet or non muppet should vote and/or post

But of course.

Are you confusing "Report Button Abuse" with voting or posting?

If you are, may I direct you the opening post, there it states quite clearly that the topic is.

I know that some contributors have wandered off topic, some without meaning to, and others who have deliberately attempted to derail the whole thread.

By the way how do you distinguish, to use your words, a 'muppet' from a 'nonmuppet'.

Does a new ID with a zero feedback score equal a 'muppet'? If that ID attains a feedback score do they cease being a 'muppet'?

If that is the case were we all 'muppets' as some stage.

Just to reiterate this thread is about the report button abuse practiced by some.
