CTS used to be a mostly friendly place where people could meet others, make new friends and have discussions on many different subjects. This chat board has been overrun with several negative threads, all of them containing an offensive avatar of an unborn baby. The poster that started these threads uses any excuse to preach about her/his religion and constanly cuts and pastes articles. This poster belongs to a religious organisation http://www.amyfound.org/ and is in effect, trying to SELL their views and religion. Ebay has strict rules about advertising and soliciting on the chat boards and just because this persons' "product" has no monetary value doesn't make it any less of an advertisement or solicitation. Many people have tried to have discussions with this poster about his/her posts but he/she always reverts to cutting and pasting more articles and does not chat about what he/she posts. If this person was trying to sell purses, video games or hockey cards on the boards, they would have been banned long ago. Why is this person still here This is not the appropriate venue for his/her mission. It is easy enough to say "Just ignore it." But it is ALL OVER THE BOARDS! WHY won't eBay remove him/her SPEAK UP AND BE HEARD! WE WANT OUR CHAT BOARD BACK!

I have been reading through the notes you left about how these boards have changed and it really humbles me to see how many of you miss the community we once had. It turns out that a lot of us are feeling the same frustration about the relentless spamming that has taken over our space. I am currently looking into the best way to present your concerns directly to the site administrators and I am only able to do that because you took the time to add your names to this.

I am honestly a bit overwhelmed by the momentum behind this because I never imagined so many people felt the same way. This is entirely because of your willingness to speak up for the community we all miss. Thank you for showing me that I was not alone in wanting our space back.

ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS. ebay needs to do their job and clean this mess up. nobody wants to see that junk when theyre just trying to talk.

its so annoying coming on here to relax and seeing that spam everywhere. there are plenty of other places to preach keep the boards for what they were actually meant for.
