I just had to say something about the new? format on feedback, where sellers and buyers say exactly how they feel about the product and the seller/buyer.
Some of the sellers really give it to them, its lol stuff and it goes on an on.
Gone are the allowed few nice words, its lines lines of just what they think of them.
Buyers give it back also.
I just love it 😃

@ Stawks etc.
Dammit, all the avi's and all the feedback are gone now for me. That's really going to make it hard to answer some questions now. GRRRRR.
eBay had better do some hiring of CS staff......................

I just wanted to come back to this thread too. They have been gone for a whole day now, which has never happened before. It used to be only a few hours.

Unfortunately I don't think Friday has anything to do with it.
ALL information other than ID and forum status is now gone and probably will not be back.
I just looked back on this entire thread and anything that may be even remotely helpful is gone.
Not sure why I even bothered to start a new ID to get back on the boards.....it is a waste of time now.

I know... It was just a joke because there are so many glitches at the moment - every day! 😞

Yes, it has, for most people. I am trying to figure out exactly how it is working as I can still see feedback number and 'view listings' for Lee42 who started this thread on 3rd Oct.
So I figured maybe all such details were removed for posts made after a certain date.
But it doesn't seem to be working exactly that way.
I looked up a thread a bit further down that started a few years back ( called ebay messages not working)
It's a mixed bag with some people's feedback details etc showing and some not, but with some of the people where it isn't showing (usually boardie regulars), those posts were made months ago. So what seems to be happening is after a person makes a post, any post, after a certain date (maybe about the 5th Oct), their details have been stripped from their ID and that's what will be visible now on every post we have ever made.
I'm guessing it is very deliberate and to stop exactly what we sometimes do, look up a person's buying or selling feedback. I haven't tried it but I think there would be a way around it in the ebay home page section, look up an ID, or has that gone too?

It seems to only affect people who have logged in or have been online in the last few days. I tried some members I have not seen recently and indeed - their feedback and avatars are there. I don't think there is any real logic in this. It seems to be some sort of glitch.

As usual, US ebay gets info / updates:

Thanks for that link Digi, I had a glance at the US boards yesterday and could see the same problem happening there.

Digi, just to add to that last post of mine, I tried to post the link to our thread on the US boards but for some reason ebay.com would not accept my Aussie password......sigh.
