Ebay Spam

[Cruiserdrew]

Is anyone else irritated by the Ebay Spam posts from Ebay ESS?

If you come on the site and open the "new posts" option, at least half the time it's 1/2 to a full page of these Ebay Posts.

It's cool if he wants to post up what is mostly junk, but to have a new thread for each one is rediculous. It would be better if they did not show at all, unless you specifically went to the Ebay forum.

This is a significant annoyance.

Where do they come from? This board? The only ads I see are the banner ones at the top.

they are NOT spam - they are auto-generated RSS feeds that I created (same theory as the News portion of the site)

I've changed the 'search' settings so that forum is no longer included...that 'should' correct the 'new post' issue.

Please let me know if it does not.

unless someone notes otherwise you can:

a> search in the EBay corner
b> NOT see those posts in your 'New Post' listing
