I see bill time has come around again from BL.

I note that there is now "please" in the pay now demand.

How do we teach the next generation of people respect when major organisations
refuse to be polite?

Is it so hard to respect people? Is our manners now so obsolete that a little
respect is too much? I am sorry but I come from an age where please and thank
you is standard, hello and good bye is an acknowledgement of another person,
and saying excuse me and sorry when injecting or creating various interferences
to another depending on the case, whether a little harm like crossing in front
of a person, or making a mistake and providing acknowledgement and sympathy to
the person I may have caused harm to!!!

Further this is a family site, can we not just leave the big nasty company behaviour
outside the website? And so BL ADMIN - It is so really so hard to add the words
like?:

PLEASE pay now - THANK YOU and maybe the following something like this:

for trading/using/selling through our service....

After all I give a lot of my time to making the store work, I am happy to pay
for the service/ use the website mostly, but the ride is not free and easy, anyone
who works a busy store will tell you that. So I really believe a drop of kindness
is a slight acknowledgement that BL is not shouldering the load of the site and
that it takes a community, as a whole to give and take for the site to work and
I think that others are also slightly disappointed that BL Admin is not always
acknowledging the effort store owners and buyers put in to make it work!

Please consider!

Thank you for your time,
Kind regards
