Message: Good Morning.

It was my understanding that Ebay was going to remove negative feedback comments from Sellers Feedback Profiles, if the members that left them were now unregistered/or suspended.

On November 17th 2007, member teapothk left a negative comment for me after he was a non paying bidder. His status soon became NOT A REGISTERED USER. However, the comment remains in my profile, and affects my feedback score.

On May 27th of this year, I contacted live help and was told the comment should be removed from my profile. I was provided a link to the Ebay feedback Removal team, however I could not use the link because the screen says the item number is too old. The item number was: 230184239683

Please could you, in accordance with your own policies, follow through and have this comment from an unregistered user removed ASAP?

Thank you. Please don't forward a link, as I've tried that and it doesn't work. Please forward this yourself to someone who deals with this matter. Thank you kindly. -PHIL

I appreciate your frustration.

I actually had an enlightening experience with photobucket the other day. I had an issue with their site and it was corrected within minutes after I wrote to them, even thought they have millions of users like eBay.

That said,

As a parent of a child with Down Syndrome, I find the language in your posts to be offensive and I suggest you reconsider your use of the r word.

Hi there ART IN THE MAKING,

I appreciate what you are saying. Sometimes I am offended by the word maniac, as some folks I know suffer from manic depression. Sometimes when I hear someone refer to something as Skitzo, it offends me because I know someone with schizophrenia.

There are many words like that that have emotional triggers for those with people close to them who have differences.

I assure you, no harm was intended when I reposted another person's comment. I have volunteered with our local Community Living program and we refer to people in the program as "developmentally delayed". I've never heard the R word around there and must admit, I quite missed the fact that people with developmental delays used to be labelled with that word.(How quickly we forget.)

Have a good day!

-PHIL

Tea,

You've described yourself in these last several posts quite well.

Tea, I am sure that neither you nor the others meant anything by it.

I'm no crusader for political correctness. It was getting a little epidemic on this thread that's all.

Yes, Tea.

Proudly I am a dual citizen of both the US and Canada. I'm quite fortunate to be able to enjoy the best of both worlds.
