    The only time that board "lights up" is when they have a chance to bash PCGS.

    I'm sure it will light up pretty bright when PCGS shuts these forums down for good.

    Sleepy hollow ain't so sleepy right now?

    If PCGS puts the kibosh on these boards like it did the OF, Sleepy Hollow may be jumping. At least if they upgrade their servers, as the performance is terrible.

    you think it would be reflected in more submissions to NGC or can PCGS maintain cash flow at current levels without these boards?

    That forum was so poorly written it's impossible for it to "lighten up"

    If they hunt for a while, they may be able to find a slower responding server to host their forums on, but that search won't be easy.

    I don't know if you can call one thread about this on the NGC boards as "lighting up", even if one were to stick with the misnomer of Sleepy Hollow.

    I think it's going to happen. And I don't think it will affect them financially. I won't stop submitting to PCGS.

    Mike this is not the place and time to call people out. There are a many good posters who post solely over there.

    Not true. For example, Greg has a knack for expressing opinions that generate a lot of discussion on occasion. Controversy generates many posts on the NGC boards just like it does here. You should also realize that the majority of "they" to whom you refer are also members of this forum. It's pretty silly to define people based on where they post.

    Only because you made an issue of it here.
  • IrishMike,
    I believe PCGS made the issue when the thread got deleted.
  • IrishMikeIrishMike Posts: 7,737 ✭✭✭
    Amen we covered this before and consensus was no good comes from comparing or bashing either board. There will always be those that fan the flames for personal reasons. I enjoy both forums.

    Jeez I take back what I said ( for the moment ). Its fast as heck and it's definitely not cached so.......
  • mrearlygoldmrearlygold Posts: 17,858 ✭✭✭
    Oops never mind. Some things never change
  • Careful Tom, you'll get accused of fanning the flamesimage
  • ldhairldhair Posts: 7,315 ✭✭✭✭✭


    << <i>No good can come of PCGS or NGC bashing......especially as it relates to who posts where.

    If you want to post over here......post over here......

    If you want to post on the NGC boards.....post on the NGC boards......

    If you want to post on both.......then post on both.......

    But let's all grow up and cut the name calling........after all I think we have all long since graduated from Elementary school. image >>


    Well said.
