"Key," of course!

braddick · October 13, 2012 2:05AM

Threads are more likely to be opened via the author vs keyword, but to play along, "altered" is an interestingly enough word to get me to open a thread.

I go by poster, not by thread title.

Sonorandesertrat · October 13, 2012 3:02AM

"Farfegnugen"? Ain't no such word auf Kraut. Do you mean Fahrvergnuegen?
And RYK left out early coppers, large cents, David Rittenhouse, auction catalog, books, etc.

RYK · October 13, 2012 3:06AM

<< <i>I go by poster, not by thread title. >>

I will take that as a compliment!

"Farfegnugen"? Ain't no such word auf Kraut. Do you mean Fahrvergnuegen?

I guess that explains why I have not read much about that on this forum.

Two more...

I do know that if RYK posts a thread I open it.

Other than that, the work Quarter usually does it.

I look at the Originator column and if I see a name that's within the "circle of trust" I automatically open it.

TwoSides2aCoin · October 13, 2012 10:40AM

If there are a lot of misspelled words in the thread title, it's a guaranteed read. That's how I came to appreciate Laura.

USMoneylover · October 13, 2012 10:44AM

There are very few threads I don't at least open to see if the topic is interesting, entertaining or informative. What can I say, I love numismatics and enjoy some drama and comedy mixed in occasionally!
