Your point is?

That you were calling someone incompetent and claiming he was ruining a company that he has successfully run for several years. Whether his policies that affect you are right or wrong is open to debate but he has obviously done enough to satisfy the shareholders.

To compare with David Cameron is a bit pointless, the job structure is significantly different. Whilst Cameron could be removed from office in a short period it wouldn't be as straightforward as John Donahue being removed. That's obviously at a basic level, I could go on about the other differences but I'll let you think about it.

He's not successfully run the company and he certainly is incompetent.

Oh yes, you still have your job or a large pay off, means that you're good at your job. Yes, that's logic, of course nobody reading this has every worked with/for somebody who was totally incompetent or a sociopath but managed to stay employed.

So, going on your logic, if you manage to keep your job, then you must be good at it. Hands up all that think David Cameron is doing a job at running the country? But he will still be there for 5 years - yep, he must be doing something right. Common sense seems to have died out a long time ago, people seem to so easily be conned into paying ebay more commission and are even welcoming paying them 10% of the postal cost. When did this lunacy set it.

rant seems pointless, you aren't going to influence ebay from here so take it or leave it, with as much dignity as you can muster...

And so have a lot of pyramid scheme owners. So, do we want to talk about companies that have made loads of money and ripped people off? Maybe I'll change my name to Beriie.

You better call an EGM quick, seems like no one else in the know is aware of this.

So does Bernie Madoff.. So does Fred the Shred, just because people make money, doesn't make them decent people. What part of that do you not understand?

I don't know anyone arguing whether he was a decent person or not, I met him very briefly once, he seemed like a decent chap, but I wouldn't say more than that. You did call him incompetent and say he hasn't run the company well, that doesn't seem to be the case as far as shareholders and the board of directors are concerned.
Some herbert in the UK being annoyed that he has to refund buyers who don't receive goods isn't really the best argument that he hasn't done his job properly.
Donahue's main purpose when he took over was to bring back and retain buyers, they were dropping off at an alarming rate when he took over and he has reversed that. Obviously you'd prefer he favoured sellers but that wasn't in his remit.
