ebay community

A myth, think about what ebay really is, a seller of add space on the internet. To say there is an ebay community makes as much sense as saying there is a times classified adds community. Think about what paypal is a money transference service. If paypal is part of a community then so is western union, and mastercard. Ebay likes to use the word community to make you feel warm, fuzzy, and safe. You may be warm and fuzzy but you are not safe. A community is a group of people with personal ties and mutual interests that makes them look out for each other. Ebay is a collection of buyers and sellers each pursuing their own self interest. A community controls, but also protects its' members, a lot of ebay refugees would tell you ebay doesn't really control or protect anyone. Many of ebays protections look got on paper, but are useless in the real world. Ebay is not a teddybears picnic,it is a walk in the woods and there are dangerous things in the woods, so be careful.

Why does Mr Whipple thrive ripping off ebay community members? How come so many members of the ebay community call other members of the community scamers,and liers. The only thing ebay community members seem to have in common is the belief that other members will try to use ebay,and paypal to scam them.

flash listings

On Graigslist listings that are there and gone in a flash. Listings that are on so short a time you usually don't know they were even there. I suspect that some people use software that alerts them when certain types of listings appear and the rest of use never see the listing. Craigslist seems to be going the way of ebay, professionals are crowding out regular buyers, and sellers.

That listing was posted 2 minutes ago and now it's deleted, another flash listing. I can't park in front of my computer, and the good stuff is always gone by the time I see the listing. I don't spend much time on Craigslist anymore flash listings have taken the fun out of it.

flagger

Some one who flags an ad on craigslist for no valid reason. An asshole who kills ads because he enjoys fucking people up. A Mr Whipple who is interested in the ad and kills it after responding to it too keep others from seeing the ad. A jerk who kills an ad without checking it out because he doesn't like the looks of it.

I finally got got a phone number, some flagger kept killing the ad.

urban dictionary

A web page that upsets a lot of experts because it isn't what they think it should be ,a listing of ghetto slang. 1 Urban means city so whites apparently don't live in cities, only blacks do. 2 Almost all of the words will never come into common usage , look in a real unabridged dictionary almost all of those words aren't commonly used. 3 A lot of the words are made up, duh all words are made up they don't fall from the sky. 4 If you don't use ghetto slang to explain ghetto slang it ain't real. Duh the purpose of a dictionary is to explain a word you don't know with words you do know. If i knew ghetto slang I wouldn't need the Urban Dictionary, A lot of definitions are long winded like this one. True but sometime a blurb is not enough. 6 The editing sucks. As far as I know the editors work for free, If you think you can do better become an editor Mr Expert. 7 Most definitions are full of spelling and English mistakes. True but like the song said I may not speak it right but I know what I'm talking about. 8 Most Definitions are written by bored teenage white boys. Could be but I'm not and I enjoy playing with words, and if my words end up dead ink no harm done. I enjoy being able to say what I think and if my definition causes you to give it a thumbs down at least you had to read it. If I ernied you so much the better.

The urban dictionary where the computer literate and the functional illiterate play in the mud much to the disgust ot the Literary.
