Ok here is the deal. I am currently leaving all my feedback as positive with 1 star DSR Rating for all my items that I purchased. I figure the more the people do this then ebay will get the idea for getting rid of the DSR ratings or make some Big changes to really reflect the true ratings. Well I just got this email from ebay Trust and Safety. It seems if I continue to do what I'm doing then I will probably get my account suspended even though this suppose to be a "Friendly Reminder". So watch out people.

"Dear BooMer,
We encourage all buyers to leave honest and accurate Feedback after
buying an item on eBay. When buyers leave an overall Feedback rating
(positive, neutral, or negative) for a seller, they can also leave
detailed seller ratings in four areas: accuracy of item description,
communication, shipping time, and shipping and handling charges.
It looks like you've left positive Feedback with low detailed seller
ratings. We understand that there are several reasons why you may have
done this:
- The detailed seller ratings left are accurate, but you're worried you
may receive negative Feedback if you leave a neutral or negative for
your seller.
- You think 1 is the highest (or best) detailed seller rating that you
can leave for a seller.
- It is an attempt to intentionally to hurt a seller's reputation
without the seller knowing.
We wanted to contact you to let you know more about Feedback and the
impact of leaving low detailed seller ratings with a positive Feedback
rating and comment.
Buyers can no longer get neutral or negative Feedback from sellers. So,
the best way to let eBay, the seller, and other buyers know about your
experience is by leaving appropriate Feedback. You can give honest
Feedback without worrying about getting negative or neutral Feedback in
return.
The detailed seller rating system is based on a one- to five-star scale.
Five stars is the highest (or best) rating, and one star is the lowest
(or worst) rating.
It is against eBay policy to try to harm a seller's reputation
intentionally by purchasing an item with the intent of leaving
inaccurate Feedback. If eBay determines that this is happening, we'll
take action against the member. You can learn more about Feedback
policies here:
Feedback Policies - Overview
It is important to eBay, the seller, and other buyers that buyers leave
appropriate Feedback for sellers. There may be times when it is
appropriate to leave positive Feedback and low detailed seller ratings.
However, in most cases, if the detailed seller ratings deserve a low
score, the overall seller rating should also be low.

eBay Trust and Safety team"
