Everyday I am asked about someone's parking lot finds.

Way too many requests to answer and the answer is always the same. It is getting quite old.

So I decide to post the opposite of parking lot finds....

Post yours ...

    I don't think this guy is banned, he's just in a timeout and in jail. No life sentence or death penalty yet........I don't think.

    Put if he keeps it up, he'll feel the guillotine.

    He's banned. His avatar shows the circle with the diagonal slash through it.

    The forum rules are clear, publicly posted, and the mods in general have awarded people a lot of lattitude or warnings prior to bans. Being knowledgeable or contributing to the forum is not a valid excuse to behave however you want.

    Maybe he can come back, similar to others who have been allowed to return.

    Did you know.....To make sure your pasta is cooked to perfection, remove a morsale, and stick it,
    to a smooth surface by throwing it. If it clings on, its ready to strain.

    If I had to guess, it's the photography job listing thread. He insulted our hosts repeatedly.

    That had to be it and the offending posts have been removed.

    Wasn’t this supposed to be opposite of parking lot finds? So?

    I think that the smug alerts at corporate were driving them crazy and they couldn’t remove the battery.

    I like to see the coins that he displays, and I hope that he comes back shortly with the best parole announcement giveaway ever.

    Edit: I amended the second sentence.

    now that you've defeated your coin forum nemesis, what are your next collecting goals?

    Wasn't me. I don't report people. I also don't care about dissenting opinions.

    When I first came on here, Chris and I got along and actually seemed to be friends. Somewhere along the way, he came to despise me and ridiculed almost every business observation I made - including pretty standard ideas like inventory turnover. But, I never put him on "ignore" and, while I'm not sure I'll actually miss him, I never wanted him to go away.

    I do report people, on occasion. Despite our strong differences, I didn't in this instance. If PCGS happened upon the thread, it probably didn't take them very long to make their decision.

    Chris was talented but smug and righteous even when he didn’t have the high ground. Him and I butted headed from some of his earliest posts when he bragged about ripping a pricy error off eBay off a newb. I won’t miss him but coin collectors including my self are often a stubborn and eclectic bunch. If everyone of some value gets banned (even if situationally called for) there won’t be much left here.

    Probably not defeated unless he chooses not to come back. I had the same avatar recently while in time out.
    Although, their email to me specifically mentioned that it was temporary and without a release date.

    Probably not temporary as he was over the top with the PCGS insults on that thread. I'll miss him, though. A good contributor and a very talented photographer
