More PC bullshit

[ManDownUnder]

Any other ebay users out there? Did you notice the wee message popping up as you log in?

I'll let you read it for yourself... it's a humble cut and paste - I kid you not...

Shit are they serious? That sucks for buyers...

[ManDownUnder]

Funny isn't it LOL

It's Corporate US saying "If you can't say something nice... don't say anything at all". It's all to help "boost shopper confidence" FFS!!!!!

I wonder if eBay were being sued over bad feeback given by person A to person B or something stupid...

[yungatart]

So shopper confidence will be boosted how??
Talk about sweeping things under the carpet..how ridiculous!

I just tried signing in and this is what I got.

So in the future how are sellers supposed to know if a buyer is a genuine one or a timewaster??

Basically they're saying negative feedback doesn't work. I've had negative feedback from a crooked seller simply because I dared to give them negative feedback first. Most peeps are too scared to leave negative feedback.

I've had some good sellers who've left positive feedback as soon as I've paid, which is how it should be really, since there's nothing the buyer can do to affect the sale once they've paid.

Why don't they just get rid of the feedback system altogether if sellers can only give buyers positive feedback? It defeats the whole point of the system!

We should do the same with rep.

The red ones reeeaaaaallllllyyyy hurt my feelings.
Sometimes, it makes me die a little inside.

Well, sounds like you will have to leave positive feedback with abusive comments then...

Or find their IP addresses, track them down, pour petrol on them and burn them.

Got this from the site. Sounds sweet to me.

"No negative or neutral Feedback for buyers

The previous system prevented buyers from leaving honest Feedback since they feared retaliation from the sellers if they left a negative. This made it harder for buyers to distinguish between sellers while making bidding or buying decisions. In addition, when buyers received negative Feedback, they reduced their activity in the marketplace, which in-turn harmed sellers."
