Freedom of speech in any form
INot true, there are limitations, one still can't yell fire in a theater. Nor, can one slander another and so forth. "Freedom of Speech" really only addresses speech against the government. We can say what we want, hurl accusations, lie about candidates, deride and damn our presidents and such but, our speech does have limits. You can make a false accusation against your elected reps but, you better not do the same against a car dealer, banker, sewer worker and so forth.

Maybe it's because I'm still new both here and fairly a novice pipe smoker. But even if the guy asking the question is another ebay flipper doing his research I still learn from the answers. So to those who feel used by Chuck with a truck pumping them for free info, I feel you but you're helping me (and probably others here) at the same time.

Why not make that suggestion to the man who owns this site? You should PM Kevin with your ideas and complaints. This site is, thankfully, not a democracy. It's privately owned and again, thankfully, well run with great mods.
Thanks for the tip, up until now I thought you owned the forum !

I understand where you are coming from. I've been trying to get the owner @admin to make a minimum post count in order to buy AND sell for years now. This is how the boss likes it. So I just does as he says! 😉😂
