I think everyone who has interacted with Felicia here needs to immediately go over there and tell that jerk what you think of him. It's a cowardly move to say something like that on a different message board and not reveal your source to boot. If that guy wanted to pick a fight with Felicia, he picked the wrong person. There will be 50 people who are friends with her on here that will make it a point to drown out that guy whenever he goes on a baseball card message board. He can E.S.A.D. as far as I'm concerned.
why start a thread like this. If you genuinely cared about the feelings of the person being discussed you would send her a pm, and then defend her on the other boards. I do not know Felicia at all, but I have seen her amazing generosity to numerous members on this board. She in no way deserves this attack on the other boards, or someone bringing attention to it here. This thread should be poofed in my opinion.
I agree with Steve, Ping was just trying to bring attention to something he thought we should know about. I think he had the good intentions of the community in mind when he posted it. Ping is a quality guy and has proven his mettle more than once.
I've had the pleasure of chatting with Felicia a few times via PMs concerning our Mantle collections and can honestly say that she is nothing short of all the great things that many, many members have said about her so far. She's a very honest and sincere person.
After reading each of the posts rendered so far, both good and ridiculous .... I can say that the ONLY motive for such a bashing of Felicia on the part of the OP from "across the street" is ENVY .
ENVY is a feeling of discontent aroused by someone else's possessions, achievements, or qualities.
ENVY is a feeling of discontent at another's good fortune or success.
ENVY is a feeling of grudging admiration and desire to have something that is possessed by another.
What a classless, distasteful, lowlife and ignorant thing to do to such a giving & caring individual such as Felicia.
OP from "across the street" .... grow up! You owe Felicia an apology!
I've said my peace over there to that idiot. He's admitted that he has no verification. He's being a real ninny by calling some of us "sleuths" and "police officers" of the internet. But maybe if he would verify information before posting it he wouldn't be in this mess. Heck, (i don't believe him for a second) but even if he were right even HE doesn't know if he is. Maybe that should tell him that his information isn't worth posing on a public forum.
In defense of Ping, I really don't think he had any malice in his post. I just think he chose his words poorly in the title. If he had said "look at the garbage that's being posted across the street" then all would have been fine. By calling the information "interesting," he lent weight to it. I have spoken with Ping via PM before and I don't think he's a spiteful dude. If I'm wrong, someone PM me.
I will agree with Ijustlovecards generosity on these boards and it makes no difference if it is a man or woman or dog or alien. I personally think it is the real Santa Claus. But does history not teach you tough guys anything? You can be anything or anyone behind the keyboard of the internet. Has it been so long that everyone has forgotten about the guy that was supposedly dead and wasnt? How about the group rip disaster with Gary? How about how great a guy Arny V was? Shall I keep going? There is not a single doubt that Felicia is an unbelievable person and this whole thing is silly but just remember things are not always as they appear.
Your noble defense of felicia is to be commended. The OP does not speak for the SGC community. While it is not the Big corperate juggernaught you have here at the CU boards, it is a growing community of many respected collectors and good caring folks who have worked hard to make the SGC community a place where all can share their hobby interests. It would be ashame to see your class act defense of Felicia, turned into a classless act of your own by turning the comments of the OP into a name calling shot at the SGC community. Suprisingly "Rube" does not make 60-70% of the posts on the SGC board. That title would go to Earl who has devoted countless hours and effort into making the SGC community a respectable and enjoyable place to share and discuss our hobby and interests, and once again Earl had the voice of reason with his post "across the Street" on this whole Felicia Matter. I think his words represent most of the SGC community and speak volumes for the kind of people this hobby needs more of. Ladies and Gentleman........ EARL
"Most of the SGC members of this forum know who I am and so do many from the PSA forum I have come to know over the period of time I have frequented their boards. I have read all the posts here and what has been started and I need to speak up against any bad sentiment directed at the SGC forum as a whole because of the opinion of one. As offended and upset as anyone may be towards the person making these claims, I want to remind everyone that there are many great SGC members and collectors here who are generous, caring and thoughtful people. Please in your judgment about this situation do not group those people or judge this forum by the opinion of certain individuals or the contention they may pose...they do not represent the majority of individuals that make up this collecting community. It is unfortunate that this situation has occurred or that such things have been spoken, but this is not at all what defines this community or forum. I am not sure about the motive behind the accusations or WHY this was ever brought up by the poster, but it is an individual response and not a community belief! And to all who have posted in protest as well as support I hope you can separate the two. And as to you, Felicia, I on behalf of this community welcome you here to the SGC forum and hope that you, in spite of this wrangling would be willing to share your knowledge and experiences of collecting with us here. And as to the rest of the collectors concerned about this matter, I ask that as collectors we set aside any differences that may come from being on one side of the "street" or the other and enjoy this great Hobby together. I have learned so much from BOTH "sides" and hope that you would continue to be open in sharing your collecting knowledge with all of us. To me, that is what makes this the most worthwhile hobby there is!
Thanks for everyone's consideration in this matter~
Winpitcher is amazing. Every other word out of his mouth is "troll". It's pretty easy to sit behind a computer and talk smack about someone all day long because you are safe at home. Keep talking, Winpitcher! One day i'll see you at a show or out somewhere and your mouth will get you into trouble. You wouldn't say half of the stuff you say on this thread to someone's face. Guaranteed!

Either that or keep it to PM with him. Pretty classless to bring your own agenda.

This is exactly why i hate posting anything on these boards. every time someone has an opinion about something, someone has to get offended to the point where they start name calling and all kinds of child crap. we are all adults here and are entitled to our own opinions, no matter how many posts we have.
its no wonder why collectors are always thought of as 'dorks' or 'nerds' by people looking in from the outside, because of stuff like this. who cares if someone has 20 posts or 20,000 posts! I'm not pointing anyone out in particular but some people need to grow up and start acting like adults!

The one commonality in your post is that all of those people ripped off board members, I on the other hand have always given and never took..
If someone will please pm me and show me how to post a you tube video and the kind people here at the boards will give me a day or so, I will post a video of myself, my cards and say hi to all you board members, hopefully this will put this to rest, and then when the show in chicago (november) rolls around we can meet and have some drinks and talk cards or whatever else you would like.
I will not let some person run me off from my board member friends, no way. I like it here and I'm staying.

I'm the OP, True I could have worded things a little different but I have some Rubenese in me with regards to proper use of the english language. IMO I didn't feel it was right for someone like Felica to be badmouthed by someone.
Felicia is great for the forum and collecting in general. I would prefer to think of her as a beautiful lady collector, but that's just me. I would prefer all of you clowns to be beautiful women, lol. It really doesn't matter one way or the other, but if she says she is a woman then I would think her credit worthiness on here is at the top of the scale.
A Youtube video is not necessary. No one here believes the allegations are true and most of us wouldn't really give a rats a** if they were true.
I will also say that I have dealt with Lloyd (ping4u43) many times and never had any concerns. He is a good guy that just posted what he thought was an important topic but just worded his original comments wrong.
As far as the SGC community is concerned, no one is judging the entire community based on the ridiculous comments of one SGC forum user, nor should we.

Not sure why that post was made over there, but I guess jealousy could play a part.
