Home PCGS Set Registry Forum

Three hours and no new threads or posts, ahh back to being the dead forum.

Somebody/anybody want to start a thread about selling coins here?

    Steve: You were not the only one who noticed that many of the most outspoken opponents of coin selling here (allegedly due to interfering with their enjoyment of this coin forum), post virtually nothing on this board anyway! No one has posted a coin for sale post in a day or so - I hope those folks in particular have been enjoying the DEAD BOARD they so strongly desire image

    this place isn't really dead, it just doesn't get posted to as often. i'm sure many visit as i do, that being a "look see" when i have the time and not necessarily posting, just reading. what i really enjoyed about the discussion earlier this week was the flow of ideas which is essentially the purpose of all the forums. some saw it as bickering, so be it.

    i believe many spoke because it was a sensitive issue and many who replied and are labeled as "outspoken opponents who post virtually nothing" are likely some such as me who visit often but read and don't reply. is that a bad thing, mitch?? i find it tiring that things are constantly whittled down to i won-you lost or i'm right-you're wrong.

    Keets: Why is it that you are always entitled to your opinion, but, I am not entitled to mine? My opinion is my opinion - thanks for taking the time to read it image Wondercoin

    hey mitch

    you're certainly entitled to your opinion. did i say you weren't?? my apologies if that was an inference you somehow extracted from my posts on the topic. where we part ways is that you seem to feel you're right and have won some type of victory while i tried to raise ideas throughout the discussion to see if some plurality of opinion could be found. none really was, mnmcoin's poll notwithstanding.

    it really isn't important to me whether anything, nothing or something-in-between those extremes can be sold here. what is important to me is that rules governing the site shouldn't be vague and open to interpretation. most who remained openminded about the discussion shared that sentiment.

    what is and isn't important to you about the whole thing??

    That's the funniest thing about this complaint about coin selling posts...
    this forum is dead. Seven threads updated since yesterday. Dead.

    Who cares if people post coins for sale. No one is using this forum anyway. image

    Maybe I've just gotten used to the tempo on the Open Forum.

    One of the biggest problems with this forum is that as soon as a subject starts
    getting discussed about registry coins, someone will come along to try to save us
    from our follies by telling everyone that the coins are overpriced and those with
    an interest are just stroking their egos or somesuch. Go back and read the old
    threads, it's hard to find one that doesn't fit the pattern. It's one thing to disagree
    or dissent but this often crosses the line well into trolling. Ignoring them often
    seems to encourage them and answering them interupts the thread.
    Tempus fugit.
