I honestly did not think it was you - until now.

You should spend less time at that boring Open Forum and more time here where the lions play.

After I bid on the 5 CoinDr/Braddick auctions, which I knew Braddick set them up because they were just like his own, I used the "ask seller a question" feature and sent CoinDr a message saying "Hi Pat!"
That's when my bids started being canceled. I didn't mean to panic CoinDr/Braddick and I said darn that Braddick because I really wanted that green nickel.
The flame thrower is off.
From now on I'm not going to care about trolls or what they say.
I'm just going to ignore them and concentrate on the one thing that I came here to the forums for in the first place...COINS.
But I'm sure all will be forgiven. But as far as I'm concerned this was the most childish and disrespectful thing that a popular member could do by letting it go this far and not telling fellow board members that like and respect him what was going on. Now flame me if you will, and that will take the attention away from a matter that in my opinion was a mockery of this board that I have gotten to love and respect.
<< <i>Personally, my trust of this forum, my interest in it, and its value, has been significantly diminished by this episode. >>
If anyone still fails to see/understand the damage done by the CoinDr thread(s), please read Pushkin's above comment one more time.
Try the NGC boards.
They've calmed down considerably in the last 24 hours.

twenty times.
Here's a warning parable for coin collectors...
In my opinion those attacking Members should take some time for reflection upon their own attitudes, rather than now attacking Braddick.
I do not know these people personally however they were Braddick prey. Reread his comments about Russ, Braddick is one sick and lonely man.
it but it's even possible the explanation is accurate. Even "coindr"
might be almost OK with a little less attitude.
Pat: I know exactly where you are welcome if you feel like it.
than again, more then likely, no one noticed (how's my gramma?)
You actually said
<< <i>Some members made absolute FOOLS of themselves and have been doing so for a very long time. Unfortunately, now that they, and their attitudes, have been exposed as though they are the emperor with no clothes, they still want to lay the blame at the feet of someone else, rather then their own. >>
Your remarks are absurd. Members made fools of themselves because they were possibly (I say possibly because I don't claim to know all the facts as you certainly must, to speak the way you do) set up in a prank/game by a fellow board member in whom they had faith and trust? The board members are the emperor with no clothes? You have it backwards - the CoinDr has no clothes. Lastly, the blame is being placed where it belongs, by all, it seems, but you.
I don't like to engage in verbal battles, so flame away at me all you want. I will let you have the last word and will not respond to anything else you say on this subject - you "win".
I don't remember the recent initial thread by CoinDr, but I didn't think it was that bad. Yes, he did get into it with a board member. But, if memory serves, he was also viciously attacked by lots of board members as well. I remember that the thread about coin doctoring and A/T was done with a lot of attitude. But, aside from that, the topic was well worth airing here. It's an important issue for many of us. Yet, many attacked him simply due to the subject matter. It's like attacking someone for wanting to discuss the merits of stem cell research.
And now, many are still attacking him. Even those he (whether it's CoinDr or Braddick) didn't aggreive in the earlier posts. Is it remotely possible for the lot of you attack dogs to take a tranquilizer? Sheesh.

I think the focus now, should remain on the issue of coin doctoring, and not how the message was delivered.
Personally, I am not insulted by the means of delivery. It really got a point across that otherwise has been missed or ignored, embarassing, or just hard to accept.
I like your teaching style, Pat, and I appreciate your efforts. All in all, I found it quite entertaining.
Where was the prank? This is an honest question, because I could easily have missed it with all the posts flying around recently. But, I truly do recall seeing any evidence of a prank.

I'll not flame you. I can agree to disagree. It is the intolerent Members that want to slash, attack, call names and "flame" as you call it. I notice they are now avoiding these threads like the plague.
That's only if we have to take sides...
But don't listen to me. I'm just one of the intolerent Members.
As ModMan he tried to discourage us from buying PCGS graded Modern coins while as Braddick he was buying all he could to make Registry Sets and constantly sucking up to Wondercoin. If I even remotely disagreed with Wondercoin, Braddick was the first one to jump in and accuse me of personal attacks. Then back himself with ModMan.
Not to mention the efforts Braddick/ModMan made to disrupt my efforts to get Proof, Mint, & Year Sets implemented into the Registry around the time David Hall was taking surveys. As a result I got disgusted with it and deleted 5 other sets & dumped them on eBay and moved my Classics to the NGC Set Registry. Gee, thanks Braddick, I only found out you were ModMan recently or I would have flamed you a long time ago.
As CoinDr he caused turmoil on the boards to discourage us from buying toned coins but as Braddick he was buying all he could on eBay. But he was the biggest suckup to Anaconda the monster dealer.
He talks bad about ACG but as Peac*ockcoins his very first feedback was from AHCollectables.
And don't forget as Officer Braddick San Diego County Sheriff Deputy he was parked behind the Dunkin Doughnuts in his squad car posting on this board about how collecting coins gave him a high like pot & angel dust and compared PCGS to a drug dealer.
Hmm..sounds like he was trying to use the boards for his own amusement & twisted purposes and we're supposed to think it's funny. He has a twisted mind and I'm glad I live far far away from California where this guy runs around with a gun & badge in his own fantasy world. He has no credibility left with me.
Prior to that, I called him no names, nor did I level any attack. After that, the troll got precisely what he deserved from me. I will never take crap from cowards who hide behind their keyboards and take pot shots with one hand, while getting their rocks off with the other.
