Would it bother you if more American posters started posting here?

What if they bring their political talk or guns or even their American English here

I've heard people complain about Australians using American English, but those words are mostly adopted from other countries. Anyone like to name a few?

Haven't you all noticed what happens at one ebay happens at the others? If they are closing all chat threads there, they'll most likely close the ones here too. I don't think ebay appreciates the value of the people answering questions others members who don't chat have..... and how many will be coming here (or the other ebays) to give answers without having a place to chat. Not many would be my guess.

Good luck to those people flooding the customer service department only to get the wrong answer.

Political talk and American English are welcome but please leave your guns behind. We don't need them, thanks.

Colour, flavour, metre, off of, jail, shall I continue with the mish mash?

The U rule is an easy one, the Zs...? I try to spell them the way you all do when typing here.

Mishmash is one word. Yeah, that's a good one, lol.

Just as long as they don't say 'change out' instead of change. Drives me crazy.

That WAS fun.

Hopefully the ones we get here have a better sense of humour.
