And The "New Rule Negs" Begin.....

I can easily see this getting abused for ebay coin sales too, since there's so much subjectivity involved. Ratings will become just as meaningless as before.

I think that ebay dropped the ball years ago as they lurched towards a top-down approach to "safety", when actually the most effective entity of ebay was its community. As ebay continues to peel away the strengths of community interaction, they're retreating from a battle where the ultimate losers are buyers/sellers. What remains of community there is a generally unhappy mob reacting against ebay problems—yet directing their ire at each other. That's an inevitable result when a company doesn't take ownership of a problem.

As proof of what an online community can do, consider how well most coin sales are conducted here at CCF. This suggests how broken ebay's business has become.

I'll spare you guys any more rant on ebay for now.

No one is gonna look at feedback anymore from sellers. It's all downhill from here

I think that is the feedback he is leaving for the others. I wonder if it is some sort of protest?

Look at some of the "conversations" in his his other feedback tabs (as as seller, as a buyer). It is almost as if he is pointing out the downside of the change. Not only are sellers forbidden from retaliating, they cannot praise good buyers, which might make sellers feel comfortable.

He might be a student of the "you have to break a few eggs" school of thought?

LOL, the buyer that scubu posted on 5/22 is NARU'd now and all of the pathetic negging was removed
