Tomorrow will be a new day and where I live the Sun will be shining and I still will be at AW. I am sure that there are some very knowledgable people that will be posting here and maybe we can change the tune a little bit and post positive ideas and suggestions. Let's hope so. As I posted before there is no free lunch. Maybe AW did a bad thing when requiring a cc to post but with the way of the .coms something had to be done. What will the other site do when all that activity gets there. I hope they are ready for the stampede. See you tomorrow..

I have been both listening and (trying) to contribute, and will be using AW and its boards. I like having all my eggs in one basket and really don't know what I'd do without Post Sale stuff. Dave.

Sorry Libra. I post on about 12 boards on a wide range of interests. This is the first board that has asked for CC Details.

I mostly just lurk on this board, I do alot of posting on other forums. I am puzzled about why everyone that is leaving because of the credit card thing; doesn't Auctionwatch already have all of our credit card numbers since they started charging for their listing services? I'm not sure what the big deal is here.

Maybe they are like me and have routine lives and need some dramatics to spice things up. I'd swear some were giving up their US citizenship the way they've carried on.
I'll be here tomorrow, life goes on.

Yup, dman will still be here;
"some where watching learning and answering"
...and still using the most horrible grammar and spelling to do it!
The posts aren't nearly as hilarious as the web site. Check it out.
Speaking of "checking", I wonder if it ever occurred to him to at least use "spell-check"? The grammar issue cannot be resolved without an additional few years of grade school.

I'll certainly take someone who is a poor speller over someone who displays such an obvious lack of basic good manners.

Come on now, just because it is your last shining hour doesn't mean you have to talk like that. I have never read that before from all of you and that is shameful. Everyone has something that they can't do right so go to your new board, try and post like that and see what happens. I am sure that they have moderators or what ever they call them to watch the boards. I am sure that after a couple of days with the new bunch that are in there, there will be some changes and not for the better either. We here at AW will move on just like the rest of you. Maybe we won't hear so much crabbing about ebay. Maybe you can find another auction site who knows but what ever happens life will go on. Good luck to all of you. I have learned some great things from most of you. All of you will be missed at least for a while, maybe a day I don't know, but soon it is the bewitching hour. Go out like ladies and gentleman.

Well, it's apparent you thought wrong. Of course, that IS being a bit generous, isn't it. I think you've shown quite clearly that you don't think at all.

I just couldn't let it go by that one last time! I have been wondering for a while why someone who is, shall we say, grammatically challenged, would routinely particiapte in a forum where WRITING skills are an important tool.

"Here" was an obvious (I thought) joke, although some certainly let it slip by them.
"Particiapte" was a typo.
Oh, you got me there! I guess I was ALL wrong abbout dman and his routine, day in, day out illiterate ramblings.

Bookart, that was really uncalled for. Where does it say that you have to be grammatically correct to post. Is that posted in AW somewhere? How sad, I wonder how you feel when you finally relax for the day and ponder over what has happened. I don't know how you could look yourself in the mirror. Take care all.

Hey Book, Bud...here's the deal...this is a board that is for folks who sell on ebay.
This isn't the Jane Austen Board or the Medieval Email list...I am not here to be overly impressed by a persons writing skills.
It's okay to tease and jibe a little, but overt flames are pretty tactless.
Besides, entrepreneurs score low on spelling tests. I just read that in WSJ.
Bill Gates?
Can't spell his way out of an open door.

bookart, in a writers' forum, you would be correct. However, in a forum where exchanging information is the goal, as long as the person makes themselves understood, who gives a rats' a**?
Probably my last post. I'm in the west and thought I'd watch the death.
