What do you think of these changes, described here:

and what would you change on the eBay discussion boards if you could, and why?

Some of those comments are very valid particularly about changing things for changes sake.


 


There is absolutely no need to move something for no reason and trotting out the usual response to criticism by saying that it "enhances the user experience" and that user comments are favourable are never backed up by showing the actual user responses.


 


Asking for user responses is often by loaded or closed questions so that isn't a completely free and honest way of seeking comments.


 


Long term users will have "seen it all before" and you have to wonder why "they never learn"?


 


It's not long since the last platform change and I wonder how many things we'll have to figure out or won't work all over again?


 


Last time some of us spent hours figuring things out and now that "The Next Generation Board" has become the "Community Board" perhaps it ought to be changed back again? B-)


 


Whenever there's a change and criticism is levelled, even if valid, the usual response is "Oh, some miseries resent changes of any sort". Yes, true to a certain extent but riding roughshod over posters and ignoring everything they say isn't "nice" is it?


 


Were I "in charge" (OK, OK, I hear you say Heaven forbid) I'd be asking the techie whizz kids "Prove to me how the changes you're proposing will earn me more money than the changes are costing".


 


When they can't prove that their proposed changes were cost effective I'd say "YOU'RE FIRED" B-)


 


 



It's life Jim, but not as WE know it.
Live long and prosper.

We used to have similar things but because it was time limited, lots of things never got answered.

Yes, a most unfortunate name for a 'moderation' company.


Let's hope they're able to manage the highs and the lows... 😉

The same type of thread in OZ gets 450 posts and  in the UK 9 posts. is it just let them shut down some things as no one is worried in UK.

I think we only get exercised about it when it's about to happen - and then again, maybe we're all getting jaded.

Ebay employees are Pinks at the moment. They will still be here when the changeover occurs but will post within a Blue border.


 


Alan is the Community Mnager and will remain so.


 


It's the unseen, unknown "moderators" who will change when Lithium take over from Liveworld.
