But your Freedom of Speech at Net54 does NOT make you exempt from an auction house's decision to exclude you from participating in their auctions.

When players at the casino in which I work, start accusing the casino/dealer of cheating, we bar them... immediately! I get the same "Freedom of Speech"
crap from them as well. I answer "Your Right. No problem. Go to a public park and say what ever the Hell you want about us. But this is private property and you are not going rip us and scream "CHEATERS" in our own house... SECURITY"

I think pointing out an error in a public forum is not the same as bad mouthing them. Errors were pointed out and people were barred as a follow up. If they did not make errors then nothing would have been pointed out. But they did make errors and they grudgingly acknowledged those errors by removing the items.
