He may have been well-respected by ebay employees. He may have been good for Trust and Safety but he was rude and lacked people skills when posting on the boards. I never met him, but, tbh, I really didn't want to. For a long time I believed that Richard didn’t exist but was simply a posting id for ebay employees who wanted to be rude.

As for Richard Ambrose I don't believe he had any real input on policy and was just a PR mouthpiece in the press and on the forums, the hate for him is misplaced.
