Is bashing PCGS moderns a bammable offense?

Zoins

If someone bashes modern coins that are PCGS encapsulated, is this considered bashing PCGS and thus bammable?

I agree.

I see no reason to bash.

It should be noted in context though that providing insight into the likely future market of certain "coins" or that there indeed is no significant two-way market in them is nothing more than honest advice. The promient person who has provided such advice hardly needs to do so to support his/her business and is not affected significantly by the folks hwo buy those "coins'" and not his/hers. Those posts I am think of have always been presented as a challenge worthy of a welcomed debate. Perhaps the presentation was always lacking or something, but it always seemed to strike a nerve for some people. Also I think it doesn't make sense to overdo that stuff in this forum as PCGS does derive a big chunk (I think the biggest chunk easily) of their revenues from those "coins". They'd displease their investors far faster if they ceased slabbing moderns than if stopped grading obsolete coin series.

Unless you really are interested in seeing PCGS pull the plug on us, maybe it's time to let it go.

Same here.

If you don't collect the moderns, than there's no reason to bash them, just ignore it.
