It seems to me somebody got slapped by Ebay for “keyword spamming” for mentioning “w/dragon” in the title of their wind wizard recently…that was totally ridiculous. But to mention Windstone in the title when something is NOT a Windstone is DEFINITELY keyword spamming if I ever saw it. 👿
Hey now I know what you look like! I looked at the other Keepers on the thread–I WANT a rainbow now! :shout: :shout: :shout:
Oh yeah I agree with you there, but I did point out that if they just scrambled the user id’s but only showed FB number to the seller’s, it would make it harder for the competing bidders to know who they are bidding against. For example, I do know your scrambled user id, Kitsune, because of poad auctions, but you are not the only one that has that scrambled id, so only the FB number separates the 2 of you. However, since you’re a sniper, I don’t see you coming until you’ve broken my heart at the last second, LOL! XD :spank:
Plus I try to show my cat, that my Grizzly fuzzy doesn’t mind getting brushed, but that doesn’t do much good with my cat, he still snarls and growls at me… XD
Darjeb, I could watch for you, but I have one person ahead of you for the hatchers, and 2 people ahead of you for the OW, so you could be looking at wating for 2nd or 3rd batches from me…
I know, but if they are going to “bother” with trying to scramble user id’s, then they should make it truly anonymous, otherwise, why bother?
the thing about the Windstone auctions, is that it is easy to figure out who the bidders are, based on the fact that Ebay keeps the “scrambled user id’s” consistant always, one sees some scrambled user id’s more often than others, AND by the FB number, when somebody’s FB number changes, it is changed globally on the site, so all one has to do is look at the Windstone FB site, find that FB number, and they know who they are bidding against. A little more detective work, and you may be able to figure out bidding habits. I have sent complaints to Ebay about this. Not because I have been harmed by it, but if I can figure out all that, so can others. There system is not a perfect system, especially when it comes to collectibles, where the bidding is Extremely Competitive, and the same people reappear all the time.
I didn’t think I liked that flap cat, but now that I see the irridescent wings from behind, that is pretty cool.
Can you repost the SK fist fight pics story? I never saw it! But it sounds like my SK dragging story. It is one heavy dragon, that is FOR SURE! 😀
