    I'm really confused about cookie stuffing.. does this mean that this happened to all Digitalpoint users or is this just a certain downloadable software?

    Lol, the ignorance in this post is outstanding. It's worth coming to DP to see posts like this.

    I don't think eBay have revealed the method of cookie stuffing yet.

    There are many methods to cookie stuff but I reckon if he was stuffing them on this forum we'd have heard about it by now.

    A simple of is img tag. And I am sure it was the one used. Or maybe a script with CTR count to defy the ebay ;) ... and show clicks + impressions.

    Yeah, until proven guilty :rolleyes:

    Now unless you're one of his close friends, family, neighbour etc that comment is pretty useless....

    Hehe. Both banned. I do love you Sarah :D

    I burnt my stuffing last Thanksgiving because I put some cookie dough in it. Should I get an attorney?

    Well, perhaps it would be better for them to remain ignorant.

    Though it seems highly unlikely that someone "stuffed" on this forum is then going to go off and join eBay with the same cookie! Why the hell don't people just try and make a legit site once in their lives, instead of all this nonsense..?

    Just to mention, i think one of the mods or admins needs to do something before we have several hundred different threads about this. I see it now its going to be another case like the stupid pagerank update!

    Billions and billions of threads about DP being sued or shaun being sued or mothers stuffing being burnt....

    There are already three threads i can see.

    What about the hundreds of thousands of existing members of ebay?

    It wouldn't be hard to make a script that first checks if you've ever visited ebay before, then if you have give you the correct country cookie..

    Shawn is a music burning cookie stuffing rebel!

    In all seriousness though, good luck Shawn i hope the DP company and forums aren't negatively effected by FleaBay.

    Do not expect Shawn to respond here, it would be extremely unwise when he is involved in a lawsuit. Since the RICO anti-racketeering act may be invoked, the consquences could be extremely serious, much more than any payable compensation.
