I have 61 messages (as of 10:56 pm EST) bashing me because I'm not putting up with snide remarks and BS from members, but when I post and put up with it, I have maybe 5-6 (on a good day) messages in answer to my questions. I'm guestimating because I really don't have the energy to check all of my posts (but I'm sure there are those of you who will and will dispute this number).
Gee, what does that say????? Get a LIFE already!!!! Jeez ... Get away from the computer and go get some ice cream!!! Those of you who were slamming me really needs to rethink life!!!

AHHHH ... Yes Max ... IF they actually give you the ANSWER, which really isn't the case in most instances. Most in this "community forum" (which really is an oxymoron) would rather provide snide remarks.

Actually I think about half of of those messages I just read were you acting like a spoiled child because
1) You were asked a perfectly reasonable question. You are aware that copies are common place so why not protect your investment by first verifing it's value?
2) It was pointed out that you are violating policy as well by contacting bidders regarding transactions you are not involved in.
What amazes me is that when valid points were brougt up it was you that turned to adolescent fits of insults name calling and taunting and then you have the nerve to try to turn this around on the people that you came to for advice in the first place.
I wouldn't count on a great deal of responses when you need help in the future. Maybe Salgal can help you.

If it's really "common" sense, why do so few people actually have it?

I asked a ?? on Friday. It was answered within an hour. I thanked the respondent & went on. What else should I do?? If you get the answer, what else do you need??

Have you spent any time over at the Round Table board? Talk about long-winded and snide! I know it feels like people are picking on you here sometimes. I used to feel that way, as well. Then, I started posting at the Round Table. A few "rounds" over there makes you appreciate how tame the eBay board really is!
