Look at the email (see below) I got regarding a post of mine which they censored as hate-speech, vulgarity, threats of violence, etc. etc. Sure, I was being a little sarcastic toward some others who were being annoying, but I don't see how this qualifies as a violation of their policies...Geez

We appreciate your participation in the eBay Community Forums. We are writing to let you know that we
removed the following post.

Also-- I just wanted to say to the posters immediately
above-- I'm not trying to employ my buyer feedback rating to
decieve people when I began selling. Why you think this
is beyond me. Perhaps you say this because you see the world
as a reflection of yourself...because you are a
deceiver, you assume everyone else to be as well. Buyer
feedback says quite a bit about a persons business ethics
and etiquette. Since a transaction involves an equal
exchange between two parties...why does it even matter
who is giving the money and who is giving the goods...
presumably goods and money are the same thing! Buying is
merely selling in reverse! Why should a buyer who is very
highly thought of by her/his sellers act any differently
when they begin selling? A buyer who pays immediately is
likely to be a seller who ships immediately. Everybody
starts out new...with small FB numbers and all as a
buyer...so yes, I'm going to judge a new seller by their
buyer feedback.
