Crazy Joe & the Ultima Online Red Cross drive
have hit a major snag. eBay has shut down all of the virtual
gold auctions on its site—more than one-third having been bid on already. eBay was forced to make the move due to
strict policies governing charitable solicitations.
Basically, they didn't trust Crazy Joe to be handling all that money in his own name. Ain't it tragic when the
past actions of a few bad apples spoil the good intentions of an honest man? Still, Joe has got to be optimistic,
given all the positive response; let's hope he finds a way to complete this effort after all.

It probably didn't help that his name was "Crazy Joe." Maybe if it was "Honest Abe" there wouldn't have been a problem.
