That being said, I agree with all those who feel that Frattlaw is a good guy.
It's location is highly classified. Luckily for you, I brought enough to share.

ccr - was that a pun intended? "..he got the boot .... and he was pretty nice guy to boot." I guess if you are a nice guy to boot that may explain why you get booted???
HRH has talked about excessive "bagging" about PCGS being a reason for banning someone. I wonder if this is one of the straw that broke the camel's back?
Sheeze.... won't my webhost be surprised at the traffic I'm getting this week

Will PCGS still grade Frattlaws coins, has anyone ever been banned from submitting, or just posting, could you trade your submitting rights for posting rights?--------------------------BigE
could you trade your submitting rights for posting rights?
Well, I certainly couldn't. PCGS would rather take my grading fees than have me on these boards. But there are probably a few people that could work a trade like that. Warren Buffett comes to mind. HRH would probably like to have him posting here...

<< <i>He was, indeed, one of the finest posters. >>
Indeed he was! However, at least now I can show off my toned Peace $ without any competition. Though, his razor sharp insight will be sorely missed around here.
Hi All, I also will miss him and his informative posts. If they banned him for discussing toning of slabbed coins and showing it done, what do they have planned for me with my PCGS WOOD BOXES ARE CLEARLY THE ANTICHRIST camapign ? Frattlaw helped drive the point with his well photographed posts about AT, slabs and acetic acid. I guess it was his comments about the turnaround time? But now he is not gone? I don't know. The only ALT I know is a button on my PC. Best, Billy
<< <i>I have no beef w/Frattlaw, but have had occcasion to have a few banned and others warned >>

Naw. As I said, I never had a beef w/Frattlaw and certainly had nothing to do with his demise on these boards.
I've bounced my share though, and have a put a few on probation with an understanding that they are history the next time they cross the line of fair play and common decency.

Yup, I just read the FrattLaw's thread bashing PCGS. Not a surprise he's banned, not at all. What did he expect?

powers that be, will prevail and reverse this action.

Your nothing!!!!
He never was anything but a decent fellow and I can not think
of his saying or doing anything to have caused him to be banned.
I look foward to his return. There would be no reason for anyone
to have dropped a nickel on him.
