new pre written descriptions
Just wondering how folks felt about the new pre written descriptions from HUKD's
I posted a jacket earlier and this was the
HUKD's suggested description
"Hey mate, have you seen this McKenzie Blast Puffer Jacket? It's only £25! You can find it at JD Sports.
This jacket is part of the McKenzie range. It's a puffer style, so it's perfect for keeping warm in colder weather.
The best part? If you spend over £70, you get free standard delivery. That's a pretty good deal, right?
And if you're a student, you can get a 10% discount. That's a nice little bonus.
You can also buy now and pay later. That's handy if you're a bit short on cash right now.
So, if you're in need of a new jacket, this McKenzie Blast Puffer Jacket could be just what you're looking for."

I think it's unnecessary and a good deal alone will sell itself.
How do you feel about.
Hi Folks?
What is a good way to address the community? (edited)
I probably missed the announcement about it. I did search but didn't see anything about it.
Annoying and patronising.
Yours is much better.
Thanks for feeding back.
I try to just include the information I think it's relevant and helpful.
I'm not too keen the tone of the HUKD's description myself but if it was popular I would switch to it.
Maybe things have changed.
Must have been a recent change as I've only just got out of having all my comments moderated because of mentions credit in comments. I had to promise not say anything to get out moderation.
And yes - any mention of credit is definitely not allowed on here so has something changed ?
Because whatever it was was hallucinating the price of my crisps deal, both in suggested price and suggested description areas, as it was trying to suggest that it was priced at £12.04 rather than the £13.50 it actually was.
It's trying to be personable and friendly but instead comes across as cold and robotic, like blatant AI, or at least, a door to door salesman trying to convince you he's got the best deals going. (edited)
