My hand is still sore. Seems that using the words "St. Elsewhere is going strong" in your tagline equates to advertising your off eBay site. HUH? No, advertising my off eBay site would be: Visit www.kcskorner.com. Or, tired of being ripped off and the high prices on eBay? visit www.kcskorner.com.
Geesh, the pinks have nothing better to do on the eBay boards than to pink slap people. They can't answer the dozens of questions pertaining to eBay policy, but they have free time enough to pink slap everyone.
I wear my pink slap proudly. It's my first. We always remember our first.

Ok, I am a little behind in meaning of things lately but what exactly is a PINK slap, just an email or did they cancel your auctions?
Sorry to hear it happened to you..

No, they just send you an email. After so many of them, they suspend you from the boards for a short time. Kind of like here when you violate the policy. Still don't know what I violated. I don't see that I advertised anything except eBay's fee hike.

Oh the Pinks of the ebay boards, I quit going to the boards with my seller name signed up with another user name but they limit your posting until you get 10 feedbacks? I don't want to use my seller name I think I got skunked on an auction by doing that at ebay's boards, just took one time and some ahole did a number on my best auction.

Despite the descriptive phrase "pink slap" little slaps like that usually come from LiveWorld Mods, not eBay Pinks.
Mods are as dumb as dirt and I think they have all of five minutes training, if that much.
"After so many of them, they suspend you from the boards for a short time."
Or, they suspend you for a long time. Or, they suspend you indefinitely. Sometimes they don't even tell you the details. They just suspend you. Remember "double secret probation" from Animal House? It's kinda like that. lol
I do believe that the Pinks have a hand in the longer term and indefinite suspensions but I think the shorter suspensions are simply a matter of accumulation. Once you hit a certain number of slaps, you get the boot for a week.
Edited to add: P.S. I don't remember my first slap but I have the complete collection, lol.
