The latest BS from BV. The 'increase' was all from one seller in the UK selling music CDs. A slight increase in a tiny sell through rate is still a tiny sell through rate. The press releases are phishing for suckers looking to catch the next ebay before it's price is too high but this ain't it by no means.

These stats are incredibly bad. There is no separation of real sports items and the worthless sports cards. You will find once you weed out the crap, there is less then 250,000 items of even marginal value.

The new BV management has learned a few tricks on CarnaVille before it sank. The key phrase in that sentence was " before it sank ".

1,206,049 auctions at BV now. That's almost a 39,000 drop in only two days. The new British CD seller ( Chayes ) with 37,000 listings is still there so that's not where the drop came from.

1,301,809 auctions now. Probably some are extra relists due to technical diffulties with the server switch. I bet the numbers are about the same as they were before, or maybe a little bit higher.

You want to see something funny go search bidville for pda . What kind of highschool kid do they have programming this site. I'm convinced that site is being run on a commodore-64 with a tape recorder drive. You have this toothless hillbilly mscuffs2u explaining technical difficulties. What a joke.

msCuFF2u - "Probably some are extra relists due to technical diffulties with the server switch"
Do you even know what a switch is and what it does? Or do you just come here to flap your lips and expose that one rotted front tooth of yours.
Go back to peddling that overpriced grill of yours.

While your at it go tell the clowns at bidville that they need to work on their most primary of functions which is search it seems to crap out on the most basic words.
Search for:
log
let
pda
go ahead take a look at the results, I guess this is a technical difficulty with a switch. Sorry to burtst your bubble it's lousy programming.
They should work on that before they push out any more press releases.

I don't know what either of my prize primates are writing but I bet it's a good tussle. The both have very 'strong' personalities and will not take no for an answer and both have to get in the last lick. May the best mammal win!

Yes, yes AuctionDOOFUS I can't think of anything better for a person of your limited skill-set and extrodinary free-time to do than to embark on a campaign to eradicate the f-word from the internet. I think the bozo highschool programmer working on Dudville code is too busy reading "Progamming for Dummies" to deal with your concern about the f-word being in a Skidrow album name. I think he needs to fix the dudville search first.

Ace don't let them deter you in such a Nobel Quest. I believe the elimination of such a dastardly word is indeed and admirable goal that should be pursued with all the vigor of your being, Go For It.....

They can not deter me because they are on ignore.
The two offensive auctions are still there and that is proof positive that Bidville customer service does not care one iota about profane auctions on their site. They could easily enter a few choice words in their crappy search engine every morning and then delete those auctions but that is something that they do not care to do. This is not a family oriented site.

Most family oriented people don't search the "f" word, Ace Have you tried emailing BVCS, or posting the problem on the boards at BV, or do you believe they are following your every post here at Vendio? LOL

Don't get me wrong I think dudville sucks, but I am impartial enough to only criticize them when they ought to be criticized. Who know's maybe they'll improve, but I doubt it. This AuctionDOOFUS idiot is just that, a doofy idiot that has no direction, logic or reasons to his stats, gripes or generally idiocity. Is there a point to your latest crusade? To let us know the f-word exists, thanks for your detective work Officer DOOFY another great caper solved.
I bet more children look at this site than ever look at bidville

but I love definition number 2 of f off
Phrasal Verbs:
f off
1. Used in the imperative as a signal of angry dismissal.
2. To spend time idly.
3. To masturbate.
Which I would guess is how AuctionDOOFUS spends most of his waking hours. On second thought I think it might be a mixture of 2 and 3.
Great work DOOFY, can't wait for your next prediction, stat or tid-bit of trivial wrongness.
I know, I know I'm on your permanent ignore list. It makes it all so much more fun to the audience around us, kind of like mooning a blind guy. But deep down I know you occasionally take a peek, perhaps in your own twisted way you enjoy my hairy posterior.

sc0ut, you should email bidville with instructions on how to fix that site. High school kids could do a better job.
Ace, your getting the old "your dimview" routine again.
posted on March 3, 2004 10:59:08 AM new
I am DimView!
Those two auctions are still there too. Take a trip to the quaint little town of Bidvile and let the kiddies search away with the comfort in knowing that the customer service watches out for vulgar listings.
Cuffy must have reported these auctions days ago but they must just dismiss her emails as a looney's work?

I didn't trouble BVCS with your ridiculous f-word worries. What are you trying to spin-up under the troll bridge now, and why are you so agitated?

Thanks for verifing my looney theory. ( I'm just guessing at what his/her post must have been about due to Vendio's fantastic 'ignore' feature )

Do you know why the f-word bothers dingleDOOFUS so much? It's probably been used on him so often. I'm sure he knows when he hears someone yell "HEY you dumb-F'in" it's probably followed by "DOOFUS" at it is meant for him. So dingleDOOFUS it's a personal quest. I think what you need is a good-F that is why you spend so much time looking for f on the internet. That is how you found those 2 dirty little auctions on dudville, you were looking for f on dudville?? I know it's probably pretty tough to bring women back to mom's house. Come on dingleDOOFUS you need to cut the umbilical cord and move out already. It just not cool to live at mom's after 30. Maybe in a few years you'll develop the social skill necessary to actually carry on a conversation with a real live women (one that you don't have to dial 1-900 to reach). I know, I know I'm on your permanent ignore list and any way momma doesn't want you talking to any of those jezebels anyway, she say's that she's the only women that you'll ever need.
