    If this is the ultimate goal, it seems like a simpler, and perhaps more appropriate, solution to keeping colonial threads on the first page would be to simply get more people participating on colonial threads.

    I kind of like the contrast that we get with some of the 'tudes.
    I posted this in another thread, but it will work here too. As contrast is concerned.

    Somebody post a Colonial and save the day.

    No. How do you ever get new enthusiasts if you segregate your specialty?

    Please post one here, Mark. Then it can be the OFFICIAL LAUNCH of the first Colonial Coin Thread that had nothing to do with Colonial Coins until it got to "100".

    No, it's actually a thread about threads about colonials. I am thinking of starting a thread about this one. image

    I don't have any to post...but RYK does! image

    Also, Lakesammman's MA Half Cent is a pretty nice contribution to this thread!

    No, it was the Native American and Indigenous Species thread. image

    For a long time I tried to keep up with multiple forums - got burned out. If it's not posted here, it wasn't posted. image

    Fellas, leave the tight pants to the ladies. If I can count the coins in your pockets you better use them to call a tailor. Stay thirsty my friends......

    I say no. I rarely visit the darkside board, so I miss seeing a lot of nice coins. Post 'em here!
    Let's try not to get upset.

    Be sure to post it in the "Thread Commentary" forum.

    Perhaps we need a forum with the loose title ... "Crap we can just argue about so we can work through our anger issues and demonstrate our snobbery" image

    I would prefer to keep the Colonial coin conversations here as many of them have educational value.

    Noting the rather early hour of my original post would go far to understand it. My routine is to pick up the iPhone after the first cup of coffee is ready, and roll back two pages looking for a Colonial thread. In retrospect however I feel now that all these threads DO belong together HERE. Regardless of whether it may be a thread on colonials or on ASEs. This diversity yet compactness IS what makes this Board stand head and shoulders above any other numismatic forum--------------I do have ONE idea which would be EZ to do and yet allow quick access......that would be on any thread about Colonials, would simply be to find a placement for the word "colonial" in your thread title. That would give us a Colonial Archive and also current threads just by the use of the Search box.
