What's with all these ridiculous new "badges"?

Is it just me, or are others insulted by the infantilisation of this board, and being awarded badges, for "being helpful", or whatever?

I'm a grown up, not a child. I don't need badges so others can see how helpful I am.

My 3 year old granddaughter get awarded badges at nursery school, for acheiving things like washing her hands, brushing her teeth, being nice to her little sister etc., and quite honestly, it feels like I'm seen by ebay, as having about the same mental age as her!

We're all adults here; I just wish eBay would treat us as such.

Over promise, then under deliver = negative buyer experience, INR cases, unhappy buyers and sellers.
Under promise, then over deliver = Positive buyer experience, joy and happiness all round. 
If only eBay could get their heads round this basic concept, this would be a happier place for all.

I think if it were me charging those amounts I would manage a smile.🤑

And only eight years experience.

 

Anyone can "succeed" on eBay but it depends on how you define success.

 

Sales is easy. Sell at a massive loss and give all your money to eBay through whatever their latest scheme is.

 

Actually making a profit on today's eBay. You got me on that one. No help here.
