    😊 Use emojis with ease

    Dear community, Emojis make posts, replies, and private messages more personal and often express feelings better. 💜 If you’re wondering how to open the emoji keyboard on your device, we’ve put together a little overview for you. 💻 Windows

    Windows key + . (period) 🍎 Mac
    Control + Command + space bar 📱 iPhone & iPad
    Tap the 😊 icon on the keyboard. 🤖 Android
    Tap the 😊 icon next to the space bar or at the bottom left. 💡 Tip: With the emoji keyboard, you can insert not only emojis, but also many symbols and special characters. 👉 Feel free to use emojis to make your posts friendlier and livelier — but as always, please keep our netiquette and treat each other respectfully in mind: https://community.ebay.de/forum/community-schwarzes-brett-15/topic/unsere-community-netiquette-411/ Have fun trying it out! 😊🎉

    📢 New feature: Private messages now available to everyone!

    Dear community, we have a new feature for you! 🎉 From now on, private messages (direct messages/DMs) can be sent & received by all logged-in community members simply by going to the respective member name.

    If you want to use this feature or adjust your settings, you can find the options under: 👤 Profile → Settings & Privacy → Privacy There you can decide for yourself who is allowed to send you direct messages: Disabled – No direct messages can be received. Only fellow event participants – Only people you are attending an event with can message you. All – All logged-in community members can send you a private message. 💡 How it works: Click your profile picture in the top right. Select “Settings & Privacy” . Under “Privacy” you’ll find the “Direct messages” section. Select the desired setting and then click “Save” . (The attached screenshots show you the individual steps.) If you want to use this feature or adjust your settings, you can find the options under:
    🤝 Please remember our netiquette in private messages too With the new ability to exchange direct messages, we’d like to remind you that the same respectful and friendly tone that is a given in our community also applies to private messages. Please therefore also make sure to follow our community netiquette in private conversations: 👉 https://community.ebay.de/forum/community-schwarzes-brett-15/topic/unsere-community-netiquette-411/ Let’s work together to make sure our community — both publicly and privately — remains a friendly and respectful place. 💜

    📢 Important information: Our community is moving to a new platform!

    Dear community members,   you may have already seen our announcement – if not, we would like to inform you here once again about the upcoming move of our community.   🚀 What’s happening?   Our community is getting a new platform that offers you a more modern design, improved navigation, and new possibilities for exchange and collaboration. Events, discussions, and helpful resources will be brought together in one central place to make using the community even easier and clearer. Please note that the move has already begun in the background. As a result, there may already be occasional minor restrictions or delays. Even in the first few days after the move, things may still be a bit bumpy in places while we continue to optimize the new platform together with you. We ask for your understanding.   📅 Important date   From June 11 to 15, 2026 , the community will be available in read-only mode only due to the platform move. During this period, you can: Read posts However, during this time you will not be able to create, reply to, or edit new posts .   ℹ️ What happens to my posts?   Your posts and most activities since 2021 will be automatically transferred to the new platform. The migration of this historical content will take place gradually. Therefore, it may be that not all content will be visible immediately after the new platform launches. The complete migration may take several weeks.   🔐 Sign-in   The familiar SSO login via your eBay account will remain in place. So you can continue to sign in with your usual eBay account.   ❓ Questions during the move   If you have questions about your eBay account during read-only mode, please contact eBay Customer Service directly: 👉 Help   ❤️ Thank you   Thank you for your support, your patience, and your commitment in our community. We look forward to welcoming you to our new platform very soon!   Your Community Team

    PS: The community is still here for you over the holidays too. Since our Community Team and Community Support Team are not fully staffed during this time, our replies may take a little longer. Thanks for your understanding 💛

    Please no more links to article pages related to reputational damage!

    Hello, we have noticed lately that more and more, contrary to our Community Netiquette , other eBay members are being put on the spot by sharing article numbers and links to articles.   Since the community is a place where no one is discriminated against or judged and respect is one of our cornerstones, we are forced to sanction the mention of articles or the linking to article pages in the context of defamation.   Please use the eBay community for what it is intended for: networking, discussing, receiving support, providing feedback, and exchanging or simply to get in touch with eBay directly.   Of course, you can continue to use the most effective way to report policy violations to us, either directly via the article page, via " Report a problem with seller " or by contacting our customer service.   Please also note that the measures we take are not always transparent to outsiders and for privacy reasons, we will not inform you about the steps we have taken.   Thank you for helping us make the community a place where eBayers enjoy meeting and staying.   Best regards, your Community Team

      On behalf of the three of us on the Community Team, I wish you all a peaceful holiday season and a great start to the new year 2023!   Thank you for making the eBay Community a place in 2022 where people love to come together 💖 . We look forward to seeing together with you what 2023 has in store for our community!   Our presence will be lighter at the end of this week and all of next week, as we’re taking advantage of the holidays too. But be assured that if you tag us or send me a private message, we’ll get back to you as soon as possible. You can see from our signatures who is currently unavailable. The eBay Q&A session will take place as usual this week, but will be on pause next week.   All the best Miriam, Patrick & of course me  😘

    Das eBay-Community Rang-System

    Hello dear community member,   As a member of the eBay community, you can participate in discussions, ask questions, and search for answers. To reward and make your activities visible, we have been working on improving our ranking system over the past few weeks.   As you use the community today, you may see notifications about the change to your community rank.   Your rank illustrates how helpful your community activity is compared to others.    Each rank in the community is displayed next to a user's name and indicates their activity in the community. You can see your rank on your profile page as well as next to your name throughout the community. The ranks of other members appear in the same place in their profile.   The improved community ranks are now divided into three categories:   Passive Ranks are for members who sign into the community, read posts, and mark them as helpful, but do not perform actions like writing posts. The ranks classified as passive are:   Exploring Warming Up On the Starting Blocks Ready for Takeoff     Active Ranks are awarded to members who perform actions in the community, such as starting a new topic, replying, accepting posts as solutions, marking posts as helpful, and receiving helpful marks. Above all, they are active members who actively engage in all forms of community life.  Earning badges in the community is a great way to improve your rank and thus show how much you contribute to the eBay community.  The ranks classified as active are:   In the Race On the Ball Committed Team Player In Top Form Top Talent Outstanding Talent Pro Champion Superstar     Mentor Ranks are for our members who volunteer as mentors in the eBay community. They use their knowledge to support members in their actions on eBay. You can find more information about the mentor program here . Mentors can earn ranks by starting a new topic, replying, accepting posts as solutions, marking them as helpful, and receiving helpful marks, and of course, also generally being very active in the community. The ranks for mentors are:   Mentor Top Mentor Pro Mentor Genius Mentor Einstein Mentor     Thank you for your continued commitment and for being part of the eBay community ❤️ !   If you have any questions, feel free to contact me by tagging me with the @ symbol before my eBay name or with a private message.
