...Pudge was talking about your Mutual Admiration 
Mob and not me?  ;)

Think about it.  I started with one comment about 
how 19 "FA/FS: Boogiepop Phantom cels!" posts 
since June is a bit much.  No personal attacks on 
Zatara.  No ranting.  No far-reaching 
proclamations or orders for her to stop.  I 
stated my opinion.

What was the response?  Let me recap:
Several people ranted and raved about how I 
ranted (ironic don't you think? especially since 
I didn't rant to begin with?)
My opinion was called a verbal attack (huh?) and 
I was labeled rude, a know-it-all, god-like, a 
net-cop (huh?  When did I order her to stop?), 
sickening, bringing down the IQ of the whole 
board (one of my favorites!), and I showed 
flagrant disregard for people's feelings.
I also have been diagnosed with a complex and 
have, as my life's goal, the hobby of hurting 
everybody I meet.  
Profanity was used.
Oh, and my lone opinion, stated clearly, with a 
link to the list of posts I was talking about, 
was also enough to cause at least three or four 
collectors to martyr themselves and quit the 
hobby completely.

Wowee, what a response.  A little out of 
proportion to the imagined affront don't you 
think?  I know if I was a newbie, I'd hate to 
post on here with mobs like this running around.

And nobody really responded to the points in my 
post.  About how redundant these weekly auction 
updates are, and how nobody else has ever done 
this quite so much.  But I guess that doesn't 
matter.  You folks have made it clear that 
attacking anyone who speaks less than glowingly 
about your buddy and then clapping each other on 
the back for stamping out The Red Menace(!) is 
much more important.  Its like Theater of the 
Absurd.  ha

I stand by my opinion.  And I think the responses 
here have shown me quite a lot about the people 
who post here.  I would suggest coming clean and 
stop pretending you are championing right over 
wrong---you are rabidly attacking someone who was 
annoyed by your friend's abuse of the board.  
Pure and simple.

I will try to put it plainly one last time.  Use 
the search function (it will grant you "GOD LIKE 
INFORMATION!!!!!!  haha) to look up Zatara and 
Phantom.  You will see 19 sale posts over the 
last five months at regular intervals.  The 
message is "Zatar has BP cels for sale".  This 
condition hasn't changed in all these months.  
Maybe they were different lots but it is common 
knowledge that if you wanted BP cels she would 
have some.  For months and months.  With no real 
change in the situation.  And I think that is a 
bit much.  Why?  Because if everybody with unsold 
cels posted updates like this, we would be 
flooded.  Why doesn't Animanga post about his 
hundreds of cels every week?  Why not Nichibei?  
Why not Taro?  Why not Ed?  Why not Animechaos?  
Each of these businesses and every person with a 
for sale page with unsold cels could come on here 
every week and say "cels still for sale...."  And 
the board would be drowned in useless noise.  
Tell us when something is significantly new or 
significantly changed.  If it is more of the same 
with little buyer interest then I think it is 
okay to say "enough".

Friends don't let friends sell Boogiepop Phantom 
cels.
