It doesn't appear to contain a call or solicitation for auction bids (even though it contains the word "auction" in the subject line) or any declaration of opening bids or anything of that nature. Contrast this with your post earlier today... http://www.lugnet.com/market/auction/?n=4407 ...which contains a solicitation for auction bids ("watch ebay this weekend") as well as a declaration of opening bids ("start at $0.01") and comes out swinging with "I have over 20 auctions ready to go online . . ." followed by a list of sets. > http://www.lugnet.com/market/auction/?n=4396 Not even close. (Its appearance in .auction, though strange, is certainly innocuous albeit off-topic for the auction group.) > http://www.lugnet.com/starwars/?n=6015 Not even remotely close. > http://www.lugnet.com/market/buy-sell-trade/?n=4606 Definitely over the line, yes. Thanks for noting. > http://www.lugnet.com/market/buy-sell-trade/?n=4586 Difficult to tell for certain, but most likely not even close. > http://www.lugnet.com/market/buy-sell-trade/?n=4580 Not even close. > http://www.lugnet.com/market/buy-sell-trade/?n=4554 Somewhat close, but not really. > http://www.lugnet.com/market/buy-sell-trade/?n=4478 Not even remotely close. > http://www.lugnet.com/market/buy-sell-trade/?n=4412 Not even remotely close. --Todd
