    Clark,

    I posted the message below to the NGC forum yesterday and even received some criticism (one of the replies which I will post beneath my message) for it. If my post had even a small part in the"possum's" departure, than it was well worth it. Either way, I'm not planning on participating over there again for sime time.

    MY POST:


    Sorry, ladies and gentlemen -


    I spend quite a bit of time on both this and the PCGS board. When I first drifted over here, I found this place to be a nice alternative to the other board.

    Lately, however, this forum has been dominated by talk of and by a particular individual. That talk, in my opinion has done (virtually) nothing but waste time and take away from other discussions of potential interest and learning here.

    To me, this board has become pretty much, a waste of my time. It's sad to me, that the most interesting and informative recent thread was one about grammar. I have nothing against that thread at all. But, the number of worthwhile threads has dwindled to almost nothing.

    I'm done posting here, at least for now. Maybe some of you care and maybe no one does. These are just my personal opinions and feelings. If things change over here, someone, please let me know.

    Mark,

    I'm sure Mrs. coinguy1 will welcome it. You spend a LOT of time on these boards. You must have one like Mrs. wayneherndon that is very understanding.

    Wayne, interesting that you mentioned that.

    Mrs. Coinguy is very understanding but 1) she thinks (knows) I'm nuts; 2) can't imagine what I could be doing all of that time between my regular work, participation on Ebay and the message boards and 3) she is currently studying hours every day (yes, after work and on weekends too) for her C.F.P. test. Once that's over, I'm not sure exactly HOW understanding she will be. Wish me luck! image

    Yep, sounds like Mrs. wayneherndon (except for #3). If she gets less understanding after the exam, maybe she should chat with mine to trade war stories and tactics. I predict she will remain as understanding (unless and until you start trying to get her to recommend coins for her clients portfolios).

    I've passed two professional licensing exams (bar and cpa). I one point in my younger, crazier days I also thought about getting my real estate license. Now I'm plenty happy that licensing exams are well in the past.

    Anyway, best of luck to you and her (on the exam).

    We have not found an effective way to remove such pests.I fear we only manage

    to turn away good people and the pests keep coming back. I wonder if we fumigate?

    P.S. If we all hang in there , all this too shall pass , and all will be as it should. Have a little

    confidence in the basic goodness of the overwhelming number of members of the Forum

  • Bear,
    You are correct, it's in the book! (Psalm 37:5) Have you always been a "Biblical Bear"?

    JLW - Just some smatterings of knowledge that seems to have wedged

    in a crevice of my rather small brain. Make sense to me though. Bear
