There you go, you got me. I've never sold a single thing in my life. Never bought anything either. In fact, I don't even have an eBay account. I just like to hang around on forums of groups I have no idea about.

I do currently do it in word.
I have seen some people using programs or on-line templates.
They seem good but cost about $300.00
You don't need to spend money on a template to have uniformly formatted and attractive listings.
I used to use some of the free ones, which are widely available, but then I decided I wanted something more unique to my brand and bought a couple of templates here on eBay, they can range from less than $2 to over $2k if they include store design etc (they can't be sold on eBay AU, but they can on other sites; click >this link< to get worldwide search results).
For the last couple of years, however, I've been using a template I designed myself via Freeform2, which is 100% free to use but requires a little time, effort and a moderate understanding of how to edit the templates to your liking (if you know how to upload images, and use programs like paint, a little exploring of the available options will make things quite intuitive in no time - it helps to have some design elements already in mind / at hand, like colour palettes and background patterns, if applicable).
As for the discussion boards, there's no policy in place saying this is supposed to be a "fun" environment. Fun can be had here, but that doesn't mean every thread and discussion is supposed to be "fun". This is a place to discuss selling on eBay, fun doesn't always come into it, for some I warrant fun harldy ever comes into it. It's a place where serious discussion topics are posted and important advice / debates can take place. To be perfectly honest with you, I would appreciate your threads even less than I do now if the forums were as busy as they used to be, and your constant posting of (as I have said before) questions of dubious merit was distracting from - and burying - serious threads.
I don't think an OP who is experiencing buyer fraud has ever expected their thread to be "fun" - I daresay they've expected it to be informative, helpful, possibly cathartic, possibly disappointing, friendly, respectful.... or any number of other things, but "fun"?
Or, let me put it another way - if, as you say, the forums are supposed to be fun, and no one else here finds your threads fun, what happens then?

I am sorry,
But did you want to discuss the original thread?
It seems like you are trying to spam and troll.. is that correct?

Fun is anything that is not negative.
Seems like people like to leave negative comments.

Thanks tippy.
Please stick to the original topic.
Do you have something to add?

Hostile comments and interpersonal disputes
This is indeed what the issue is.
I would say not stick to the topic is distractive
Repetitive, disruptive, or inappropriate threads

Then might I suggest in the future you consider using the correct antonym for "negative", so that you are able to convey what you mean more clearly; i.e. "positive", and/or "constructive" are more appropriate than "fun", if that is the true meaning of what you are trying to say.
I would interpret "This is supposed to be a positive environment" very differently to the way I interpret "This is supposed to be a fun environment", so much so that I agree with the former and disagree with the latter.

I did discuss the original thread . . . . I was the first reply . . . . . and I feel that my reply warranted consideration from you.
When you took this thread off on a tangent I followed that tangent . . . . . which makes my subsequent posts (including this one) on-topic . . . . . as the Opening Poster (that would be you) dictated the direction the topic was to take.
As I posted before, if you have an issue with a post then report it, BUT do not post about reporting it.

Why digital.
Just let it go.
I am trying my best to stop the percieved harassment.
