why wouldn't it be? Should i have just posted it here? Wouldn't that be just as greedy of me?
I mostly frequent PC forums and they have freebies threads that give away tons of great stuff all the time. Many of which have helped me out in a bind or two. Why should I hold out on them just to post it on BYOAC?

I'm sure that's consolation to the person who thought they had a chance at it for posting dibs first. If it were me, I'd rather not have seen it at all than think I had a chance at it after posting. So yeah, in my opinion, you should have either a) held out on them or b) held out on us. Post it in one spot, and then if it doesn't sell, post it elsewhere.
I realize this isn't E-Bay, but still. Common courtesy is always a better way to go.

Again, Why? You aren't really giving a reason here at all.
I post on multiple forums and there's nothing anywhere that states i couldn't post a FREE item on anyone of those forums at any given time. I actually posted it here before i even posted it on other forums. So technically BYOAC got about a good minute head start over H, TPU and other sites.
As with any freebies it's always on a "you snooze, you lose basis". I can't help that and I'm not going to pick and choose who is going to get it. If i did, I would have just offered it up to reputable members on any site i chose via pm; completely killing any basis for a freebies post in the first place.
