I think it's important to be able to talk about other sites on here because we can learn from their mistakes and their good ideas. I don't see the point of using made up names for ebay as I doubt that it has any effect on sales, folk have heard about ebay long before they heard about ebid. I know that the search engine bots pick up what we post but in my opinion that's a good thing as it could direct people to ebid when the post shows up in the search results. So I don't understand why folk get their knickers in a twist when ebay is mentioned by name.

I don't think that it is a good idea to have a forum just for discussion of other sites, mainly because most of the threads will be putting other sites down and if visitors see a forum full of folk bitching about other sites then it would make eBid look bad. I think we should leave it in the KT where the threads are mixed in with more positive threads.

That's my 2p worth.
