So is it time

[*crikey*mate*]

that we all stopped commenting or passing judgement on posts or threads that we don't like?

eBay is a large and diverse community, There are always going to be some that like some things and some that don't.

So, as long as the post/thread is within eBay's guidleines, is it time to just let people post what and how they want?

Perhaps if you do find something offensive, how about PM'ing the person involved to politely explain your position instead of doing it in a manner that may cause humiliation.

*Disclaimer, the above option did not work very well for me, so in no way can I advise that this is the best option, but just a suggestion. LOL.

If anyone ever PM'd me to tell me they dont like what im saying on here, i would tell them to............better not say it on here B-)

Same here, I don't think the ebay message system would handle it very well :^O

So is it time ??? Hmmm................

Maybe it's time we realised we are all adults who need to stand on our own two feet ? and if we can't, then learn how !

We can expect certain behaviour from those we know but to expect others to behave how we want them to ??? never going to happen, as we are all different, with different standards, different morals etc and to EXPECT others to behave in a certain way is, IMO, judgemental.

The saying, treat others as you'd like to be treated is fair enough but to expect it to happen all the time is like wearing rose coloured galsses and certain to bring feelings of "s'not fair" !!

That's life !!!!

applauds!

IMO there is far to much woe is me on here and differences of opinions turn into bullying threads

Blardy hell, to disagree or to debate is a good thing,

to disagree or to debate is a good thing,

It so is and it's only to be expected that different people will disagree.

would you be OK with them posting that to you here ?

[dskracing]

It is a good thing Iza, but only if both parties respect each others point of view and do not keep posting the same thing just to prove a point.

[daydream**believer]

would you be OK with them posting that to you here ?

yes Iza, i would rather they say it on here actually

[soul_art]

Now I'm applauding YOU dsk !!!:-D

Another thing that might bring a bit of harmony to the boards is if people stop thinking that everything is about them........except when it is !! :^O
