You're inundating this board with information we all can read for
ourselves.
We do not want to read all your e-mail messages, nor do we want to read
all
the information that is posted all over eBay. If you have a specific
question, ask it! If not, please stop posting. I am tired of reading it
all

r.r.c.
Call it what you want, but we have asked nicely! If you have something
to
share either paraphrase it or post a link. Quit posting the WHOLE thing
and
PLEASE quit posting your emails from eBay!
We have tried patience and understanding but you are not getting it.
Sotheby's is available to each of us and if we want more information on
it,
there are places to look for that, we do not need posts that are so long
that they will not even fit into the compose a message box. If we need
help
finding something, we know where to go to ask for help and we know how
to
use the Site Map.

Recently we became aware that your eBay registered account was involved in
the following activity:
* Public Board Abuse:
-Using JavaScript, active or other coding, making repetitive posts,
or other actions that interfere with site operations.
-Refusing to follow eBay staff instruction or direction.
which is not permitted at eBay.
You have previously been warned for inappropriate board activities, and
asked to review our Board Usage Policies.
Therefore, we are revoking all privileges of posting on any eBay board, for
a period of thirty (30) days. During this time you may continue to bid and
to list your auctions. Please note that any violation of this sanction, by
using an alternate ID to post on any eBay board, or to report posts for
violations will result in the suspension of your eBay account, including all
buying and selling privileges.
Please understand our goal is to help you understand our policies to ensure
successful experiences at eBay.
Therefore, we respectfully request that, after your sanction from board
posting is over, you refrain from any activity
in the future which violates the Board Usage policy, which can be found at
http://pages.ebay.com/help/community/png-board.html
to avoid the possibility of a suspension of your eBay registration.
Thank you in advance for your cooperation in this important matter.

I guess he got booted off ebay's boards so he came over here to play or complain. May I suggest the OTWA boards? They have almost 250,000 posts in their ebay discussion boards.
