I am now totally confused.

Clearly what Coops said was that if you continued to continually revise listings so they werre periodically not searchabke and if you thought a buyer could not leave you a neg that would remain no matter how much you protested then you would learn, one way or another, that you were wrong. In other words your sales would be down and you would get a neg sooner or later.

How is that a threat, how is it advising anyone to breach ebay policy, how is it illegal in any way, shape or form.
