Adding REAL address as a Gift address on Paypal

I just added my real address as a gift address into my Paypal account. I was told before there was no problem about this but I am checking my ebay account and I see that my real address also was added into my ebay account immediately after was added on Paypal. I don't see it as a gift address on my ebay account.
I just wanna make some purchases and receive possible items in my real address. I don't know if I did wrong doing this?
Please advise...

What do you mean they are linked?

If the address you added is linked to a suspened account, you are now linked as ebay has it under your account info.

Right, you can't use your real address that was suspended by eBay / Paypal already. That'll link your accounts together. You have to use a new address.

I use simon card (⊗⊗⊗⊗d address same as ebay) to create a paypal and add bank account (true banned address). Before PP is linked to ebay, this account is ok to pay and receive money for ebay transaction. But later, they require me to link it after 9 transaction, I linked it and was suspended within 10 minutes. So remember not to link PP and EBAY if PP account use true address bank account.
