Like I said, messages trying to answer a question 
or to help out in general are fine.  And like I 
said, I usually have no problems with that at 
all.  In fact, I'm all for it and answer 
questions whenever I can myself (if they haven't 
been answered already).

However, I think that (like I said before) fireye 
could have accomplished the goal by simply doing 
the exact same thing, except without posting the 
auction links (which seems unnecessary and 
unwanted from what I've read from others 
before).  It's a fine line and it's up to debate 
(obviously) but I'm simply going by what I think 
is the norm around here.

It really wasn't a big deal with me at all.  I 
usually do not carry strong opinions or emotions 
about anything here (it's a cel collector's 
forum, so why be so uptight?).  I usually follow 
the lead of most folks here.

If my first response to this thread appeared a 
little too adverse, then you're reading too much 
into it because my level of interest in this 
topic was not that great to begin with.  However, 
I do apologize if any of you mis-interpreted my 
text too much.
