Only way is to use another account or temporarily remove the listings you don't want anyone to see.

I think there is a way to put your listings on vacation,one option is to hide the listings,if you dont want anyone to see them,not sure if it is still available,
or open another ebay account

Holiday mode does not hide your listings, it only gives the buyer an updated timeframe for delivery (after the seller is due to be back from holiday)

The simple answer is that you can not.

The way around is a stealth selling account with no listings and then you can ask your questions

I recall there is such option,hide the listing,check it out.
Most buyers do not read,they expect you to ship promptly,it happens to me once when I was overseas

Unfortunately not - this is why a lot of people tend to use a separate posting ID for community posts, so that other people can't then see your listings and complain about them!

Definitely have separate accounts for buying/selling, and community.
