I wanted to point out that "do what we want because it's ours" isn't necessarily justified.
But one other quick thing: I'm more sympathetic to bidders because they usually don't make anything from it.
And as I mentioned elsewhere, groups using bid bots for promotion purpose have no alternative for paying for exposure right now. I want to change that.
i see, very good points and of course i listen to you wholeheartedly. :)
