My account as Elemint was closed last month and I never received an explanation as to why A friend of mine who had an
account closed sent my this thread today. Roger Burdette's account was recently closed on this forum. I've enjoyed his
sarcastic yet very insightful comments for years. Hope he returns. He's still active on NGC's forum as I am.

The censorship is so tight, it;s hard to tell what exactly is going on, especially when communications are severed,

On a side note, glad everyone here knows the real story of what happened during #forumgate2018 that cointalk thread is OOF.

And also that RogerB is not banned!?
Yes, this one gave me a good chuckle

Wow an alt to bump your own thread... Thought that was a joke, but now I've seen it all
@HeatherBoyd now we just need to know who alt BongoBongo was?
BongoBongo is the forums greatest unsolved mystery ever.
Any body want to talk coins on here.
I've spent enough time investigating alts today! Off to my regularly scheduled programming

FWIW, “312” is the area code for Chicago, where the Columbian Exposition was held.
Wow!
I am a member of CT but only log in occasionally to check on one topic as one of the major players in that niche field choses to do his work there. That thread on RogerB was over the top, which reaffirms my strategy regarding CT.
Good work on ferretting out more trolls above. Now that we know they were all the same person it is hilarious to see him conduct a conversation with himself.
I'll have to make some popcorn and sit back see what else hits the fan this week with the new policy on trolls and alts.
Hahah yes, for anyone who does not know, I was not the one who banned Roger and deleted his content. I'm the one who came in and brought it back
! But at the end of the day, it doesn't matter.
Fingers crossed for an uneventful rest of the week!

Nah - @RogerB is still fine here under his current account - that thread the OP linked was many months back when he was removed on accident by Heather for a day or two, but she found the issue and he was returned as well as his content.

As I recall it was a system glitch or some other inadvertent event, and that some people worked very hard to get it all back online.
Look forward to Friday...

Oops, my bad - but you did resolve it, so you're still A-OK in my book!

??? That # makes no sense. back to Roman class for you!
Always wondered why my coins with BC on the date were suspicious.
Agree
Let's hope this is all because of the Super Worm Moon and we can get back to coins soon.

That's downright embarrassing!
Smitten with DBLCs.
I never really noticed all this going on.

Now -- please, enough of this silliness from a very old thread.
wow!! people never cease to amaze me!! This is a hobby for me, so perhaps I'm not nearly as invested as I would be if it were related to my actual job. ..or, if I had that amount of time to waste...

I've always thought that being able to see those who were posting would go a long way toward understanding and evaluating what they were saying. The simultaneous strength and weakness of Internet forums is equal access to anyone with a keyboard.
I'm happy they're being weeded out.
I thought Roger was banned a long time ago.
Got to get past hump day!

Ah the excitement never ends... Good troll hunting Heather.... Cheers, RickO
Fresh from the mailbox. Finally finishing the Kennedy album I started over ten years ago by getting some odds and ends. (1999 and 2001 Silver proofs — so much cheaper now! — arrive tomorrow, with a CAM ‘64 proof to spruce up the front page.)

OK. I’m going to reveal the identity and some details on “Bongo Bongo”. All this is 100% Truthful.~~ I had the pleasure of hanging out with this guy several times at the time he was active on the forum. His first name is Adam. He lived in South Jersey,,in an apartment with wife and infant son. He had red short hair and is Very Very Intelligent, and is about 30 -35 . Some years before this he was working with a company that drove marine pilings in. In an accident, his hip and other bones were badly broken. He has healed pretty good but is on lifetime disability. His Mother and Father both held very high diplomatic posts, and Icelandic citizenship (as does Adam). Through various contacts he developed friendships with people involved with various shady operations, including a government assasin in Afghanistan. His Father was a Numismatist, though in a falling out within the family, stole and sold Adams collection. At the time I knew him he was deeply concerned with Government manipulation of the Environment, such as HAARP and “Chemtrails”, he printed out Vast quantities of documents fearing the Government would soon “cleanse” the internet and a lot of evidence would be wiped out. He did have a broad knowledge of coins and said though he seldom bought anything, he “collected” images and remembered details very well. ~ Now, you may ask, did He have Alts? Yes. He was Ahooka454, A few others I do forget. Now, I’m almost certain he no longer posts. Something.....I’m not quite sure what made him move to Oklahoma pretty quickly. I sort of gathered he was in some type of trouble and May be incarcerated (just a guess because he Does have my phone number and I’ve not heard from him)~~~~ So Now mystery solved.
Oh yes. I think one alt was 50largecents....another something like lincolnnutz or such. He Did get a lot of scoldings from Don Willis. He owned a Rabbit (animal not car). Wife was very nice.
Can someone tell me what is going on here? I am confused!

If people would not nurse their grudges and continue to dredge up ancient history, maybe they would have a shot at carrying on in their lives. "Forgive us our debts as we forgive your debtors", a good mental health practice.
