I am getting tired of these boards!

I am getting sick of this board!!!

Several reasons

1) people keep getting banned

2) sick of Russ sucks, Marty sucks, we get it already, Are these the only people with scores or do they just live off of posting each other stuff?

3) posting an honest question and getting no responses while people argue about AT or NT?

4) people bashing each other, I used to say, oh well, it is part of the boards, so be it, but it really is getting boring.

5) whining, including me, how else am I supposed to get this message across

6) Anaconda

SO, take a vote should I stay or go, or does it really even matter???

  • Hang around.

    Just ask K6AZ for that BS meter that is pegged to "man the lifeboat" and start posting that all over the board. This should clear the air for you

    Tell us how you really feel.

    Also, are you going to count "Your a loser anyways" as a "No" vote? If not, darn, I wasted a vote.

    You're also hurting your argument concerning personal attacks being something you're 'getting tired of' when you single out Anaconda.

    What Tumuss said.

    I voted for "loser", not because you really are one, but because you spelled "You're" incorrectly. image

    It takes a while to get into the groove here. Early in your membership, worry less about the inside jokes of others, flame wars, ebay scams, etc., and post to the threads that do interest you. After a while, you will feel a part of things. It happens gradually. Along the way you will make some friends (and maybe some enemies image) and will learn more about coins in a shorter time than you could possibly learn anywhere else. It's not our choice, it's YOUR choice.

    (LM, did I spell it correctly?)

    1) The overall percentage of people who've been banned is extremely low, probably under 1%

    2) Look at the coins they buy, they have to amuse themselves in some way to compensate.

    3) Most questions here get answered, and yes, the AT/NT debates are getting old, especially considering that most people who make comments about it have no clue.

    4) That's one of the best parts, don't be an idiot.

    5) Try submitting a few coins to PCGS, and you'll see why people whine.

    6) You got a point there.....

    I say hang in there, otherwise the bad guys who think they own these boards win.

  • I have posted several questions with no responses and have answered many questions that no one else seems to took the time to answer. This is a vote, people I have helped will vote along with the coin mafia who don't care if I stay. I am going to do what the popular majority votes. Simple, am I wanted or not? I think I know the answer.

    I've also sensed some apathy on these boards lately. Too many fights? Not enough fights?

    If you think you are a loser you are.

    Your too new here to get bent.
    Give it time and pass on stuf you don't wish to read.

    It's all in what you make of it. image

    After reviewing your reasons, I voted yes.

    Too much bashing.

    Too much you sucks stuff.

    Too much political posturing.

    Too much attitude from a few wholier than God (or so they think) dealers. In fact, these few only jump in where it suits them, and otherwise they are nowhere to be found with nothing worthwhile to contribute.

    And not enough meaningful dialogue. Case in point - I posted what I thought may trigger some good analysis. The few that participated has some interesting insights. Not sure what the rest of you were doing. Here is a link to that thread. Link
    I brake for ear bars.

    But I never seem to go away...

    ar18, please do us a favor and TTT some of the threads in which you asked questions. I am sorry that I missed them. I don't answer a lot of questions simply because I don't know the answer. Where they tough questions??

    A lot of the board veterans have responded with good advice with you, but you still seem to be defensive about the whole subject and want to give an ultimatum insisting that people rally around you or you leave? Do what you must, but remember, in the end it's your decision, not the decision of the people voting.

    I could not bring myself to say Holier, by the way. image Oh my, I'm bashing. image

  • Personally, I think it's heightened tension due to politics, as well as the natural cycle of the boards...

Guess what? In one way or another we're all a bunch of losers. Yup the whole forum gang - every last one of us - think about it image

    Uh, AR, sorry to point this out, but your light is still on. Good luck.
  • Stick around... seriously... don't give in to idiots... ignore the sh!t, and read the posts that interest you... this forum goes through cycles of bad crap... and it's a never ending cycle. Many of the veterans of the forums will tell you that... stick around, I guarentee it will get better... and I realize, sometimes you need a break... I occasionally take a couple days off from the forums, because I get tired of it... image I use that time to do other stuff, research a numismatic topic, play a game, surf EBay, check out another forum... image Stick around, ride it out, you'll be better in the end for it image

    I'm bored with the boards as well. Do what I did - go spend some time in the open forum. It makes this one seem sedate in comparison. image
  • ar18,

    All i gotta say is "been there, done that." Boy!! have i been in exactly your position and felt the same way.

    It's now several months later and i'm still here. Just enjoy the good stuff and don't sweat the bad stuff.
