BrickLink ID Card NoGravitasHere (35) Location:  New Zealand, Canterbury Member Since Contact Type Status Feb 24, 2021 Seller Store: Pretty Sick Parts & Sets

I've contacted BrickLink support multiple times via the Help Desk link, and been ignored every single time. The current system of silver classification is laughably bad. There are 9 official Lego silvers/chromes/gunmetals, and you only recognise 4.5, at best. I have repeatedly offered you the information you need to fix this issue, and have not once received even a reply for my efforts. Instead, BrickLink is more interested in maintaining their poorly-categorised colours, removing accurate listings (how can I include rubber bands with a set, when said rubber bands are 23 years old and dust?), and ignoring the fella trying to literally hand you the answer to this issue, and also ruining your database by no longer tracking part variants. You do realise some of those 'insignificant' changes actually matter, right? ... Right?

[...] Like any other sets with broken parts, you leave them out and list the set as incomplete saying no rubber bands. (4 months ago, Feb 2, 2024, to Catalog)
