It's nothing more than classic mob tactics. Holiday has repeatedly said that there are no restrictions on discussing pending auctions. This was obviously a multi-thousand dollar, high-profile auction perfectly appropriate for public discussion - especially once it blew up to $1,000 with multiple fat wallet bidders - yet I've been called a "moron," (by a moderator!) a "reckless idiot," "douchebag" (by another moderator, who later apologized) and told that I was "deliberate fucking" other APF members out of spite. I've gotten into a few hot arguments with a couple of charming members, but I've never used that kind of vitriol for an issue like this.
Who's the douche?And WTF is this nonsense talk about fancy french people who slap each other with gloves. I'd slap all of you people, and not with gloves.And there is no über lord, Chris. Holiday is the brains, and I'm the _____ ? T
The reality of this whole issue is that it will not change one bit. A majority of the people feel that it is not the right thing to do and admit that they would never do it themselves. Mel is allowed to post what he wants regardless of how other members may feel. Honestly who gives a shit anymore.
I'm asking this in all seriousness Rich... do you disagree with us calling Mel a hypocrite (meaning you don't think he is being one)? Or do you disagree with us for giving him shit for it? Or something else entirely?
The end result is permanent alienation and a less interesting forum in the future because no one will discuss pending auctions lest the majority "tar and feather" them, as the "majority" has done to me in the last few days.

Yeah, well another "reality" is that the "majority" has debased itself by engaging in gutter fighting and starting a civil war over a settled issue. The end result is permanent alienation and a less interesting forum in the future because no one will discuss pending auctions lest the majority "tar and feather" them, as the "majority" has done to me in the last few days.
I think it's better for some of you to call 1-800-277-4653
There are plenty of other things to talk about on this forum than just pending auctions.
And this is for you Rich http://www.experienceproject.com/groups/Am-A-Dickhead/71739
Clowns freak me out
I forgot, it is that time of year!
That clown from Poltergeist freaked me out for years.This is why I've always hated the circus. Show me all the horror movies in the world, show me Cannibal Holocaust or Texas Chainsaw, but don't show me a clown!!!T
