Fortunately they have the ability and resources to be involved with more than 500 things at once.

Wow just found it in water cooler section. And locked! Glad I didn’t buy anything in that auction because I’d have no idea what was going on with them anymore.

Whenever members want to throw snide remarks my way then the repercussions are not going to be what those members want. Just like when you said "so sorry" to me in your thread you wanted to be on the front page. And then when I have had enough with those members, those members will be gone. I have found that weeding out malcontents is not only good for me but good for the forum. Carry on.....and so sorry .

If legitimate questions about advertisers are now suddenly off limits, count me as a malcontent I guess. Not the forum I've known for all these years.

It was the snide remark that tipped the boat not the question.
If you make those kind of remarks then you will be in the same boat as they are.
It is each members call how they want to participate. It is the same forum as always I am just taking less BS from the members. Had I truly been "protecting" an advertiser then the thread would have been deleted. Each member can make their own assumptions but the best way to participate here is not going to be rubbing me the wrong way, on purpose.

Yeah, and eventually like every organization on the face of the earth they sit around at some point and decide budgeting, priorities for the coming year, which things merit continued attention, staffing needs, etc. I see the FBI in the paper every day now. . . . .and it ain't about baseball cards. . . . .

You must have access to better information about what’s going on with them and this investigation than I do so I will have to defer to you.
