An open letter to eBay:
You have removed my auction for Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas because it "depict[s] frontal nudity" and that items like this are sold "with very limited exceptions". I understand the need for such restrictions, but enacting a ban on this game is ridiculous - I can see frontal nudity in hundreds or even thousands of R-Rated movies for sale on eBay. You have imposed no bans on such movies and I believe that recent media attention does not justify such actions.

This is a stupid move by eBay. Didn't they used to sell pr0ns on there? I believe they did... when ever did they clean up their act? You can buy sex toys but not GTA:SA?

FACES OF DEATH!!!
GTA:SA might be violent, but it is animated violence unlike Faces of Death.
Sadly, democrats and republicans equally hate videogames like GTA. Republicans for religious reasons, and democrats because they blame all the violence that occurs in the world on them.

Unless you make it funny, satirical, or something of that nature, not too many people here will care what you have to say about 90% of topics.
But, way to stick it to the man!

Who cares what posting it here has in the affects of the actual removal of the item?
Never give up. Keep on fighting!
