Jada since you don't know what's going on behind the scenes I will forgive you for your post...LOL
I have been invited to visit BidBay and will be arriving there Tuesday to discuss the integrity issues that the online auction community has with BidBay.
Part of the agreement I worked out with BidBay was that I would be allowed to post again on their chat boards. My intention behind this was to chat with some of the members that I know share the same feelings as I do. I wanted to get a discussion going on some of the topics I should cover when I arrived.
However I soon realized that there would be a couple of people there who would do everything possible to disrupt the chat as they couldn't even get past a simple "hi" from me.
So I haven't posted again there and don't plan on it until after the trip when I will post one last and final post at BidBay regarding the outcome of my visit.
The simple fact is I have never "left" BidBay I am still a registered member there I was just suspended from posting on the chat board. I have always been able to buy and sell I just choose not to.
No one has made "nice" with anyone. We are going to meet and discuss the problems I have been addressing on these and other boards and since I will be a guest so to speak I will at least be civil during my visit.
That is all. Nothing more, nothing less.
As far as my credibility with you...not something I am too worried about.
You have hundreds if not thousands on AW alone posting complaints about sites all day long not many can say they are taking them straight to the man in charge to see if things can be changed.
However I can.
If people dont' like it tough. I only have to satisfy one person in this world and that is me.

Forgiveness for my posts is not something that concerns me a great deal.
I agree that you only have one person to satisfy in this world, as do we all.
However, all of us don't accept $5,000 for our "opinions" when those opinions have been shouted from the rooftops repeatedly, nor do we author threads on the site about which we complain and accept pats on the back from several site users, including the CEO.
As I said, I am through playing this game. Honesty and integrity are still important to me and will always remain so.
If you don't like my posts, you have the option of simply not reading them or putting them on ignore.
