You'll be lucky if you can read anything except boring crap about Live World.

Won't be reading any thing much about Live World soon. Hopefully we might get some improved moderation when their contract finishes.


 


 


Live World press release.


 


San Jose, CA, & New York – May 24, 2013 – LiveWorld, Inc. (OTC Markets: LVWD), today announced that it is focusing on its broader social media presence and will spend fewer resources on the development and deployment of its Community Center solution set.  Consistent with this transition, the company expects its contractual relationship with eBay to end during the summer 2013.


 


“We have had a wonderful working relationship over the years, and we look forward to their continued success,” said David Houston, Chief Financial Officer of LiveWorld. “This transition is consistent with our continuing business shift from solutions based on our proprietary central community web platform to solutions focused on the greater social web.”

I know about that announcement and I won't miss them. On their site they claim they use human moderation. I've suspected for a long time only computers deal with reported posts but we'll probably never know for sure. I've emailed ebay about the incident last night and I'm waiting ( up to 3 days ) for a reply.....

eBay discussion boards are down - and what's worse, trying to access them results in a long wait followed by being redirecting to the LiveWorld website. As we reported in May, eBay cancelled its contract with LiveWorld, and since then has migrated the discussion boards in Canada to its new platform provider, Lithium, with plans to roll out the rest of the international forums in the following weeks.


 


eBay's Director of Community Jeff Terrell told EcommerceBytes it was a "mutual parting" between eBay and LiveWorld, but this redirect, however unintentional and whose ever fault it may be, ultimately results in users being "hijacked" to LiveWorld.

Update: At 11:19, eBay posted the following notice on the Systems board:

Hello,
We are aware that members are currently experiencing problems accessing the eBay Community Center. We are working on a resolution for this issue as quickly as possible and will keep you updated.

Regards and apologies for the inconvenience,
The eBay Team
