Guinness book of world records

Onedollarnohollar · July 8, 2012 3:03AM

This will be an attempt to break the old world's record for longest coin forum thread in history. The current record is not available to me at this moment but we have a long way to go anyway before we need

to concern ourselves with actual details...

.... So to begin with "I am born" To say that I was born in this context is that I became a collector of U.S. coins. Mostly moderns....

You'll never catch this thread..

WHich I've enjoyed BTW.

I would think spelling it correctly (it's Guinness, not 'Guiness') would be a step in the right direction for achieving your goal.

Onedollarnohollar · July 8, 2012 4:05AM

Hey thanks braddick...good lookin' out for spellcheck! Now back to our regularly scheduled program. Anyone want to talk about coins?

no one but the moderator or owners can close a thread, sorry.

Onedollarnohollar · July 9, 2012 3:25PM

no one but the moderator or owners can close a thread, sorry.

or indifference by the forum members.....

FadeToBlack, 19Lyds, thanks for trying to breathe some life into this thread with your comparison references to other long running threads.....

but, alas, the patient died. Died too young.... an assasin put a bullet in 'em, shot 'em in the back, while others stood around and laughed and could only parrot

He died with his boots on though! Maybe the Guinness record for shortest threads in history.......

Next time let's talk about coins, eh people?

This could have been a good thread. Everyone could have talked about their personal areas of expertise and interest. So many threads are dedicated to just one theme or specialty.

We could have shared and learned from each other and maybe sparked an interest in a coin or series that beforehand we hadn't thought of. We could have learned grading skills

perhaps. We could have told stories about how we got started, travels to shows, grading company insider info, auctions, shared pictures of rarities, etc. Unfortunately, it just became

fodder for some to poke fun at. Someday I hope that personal agendas don't have to rear their ugly heads when trying to start a conversation. That is all. The defense rests.

By the time this thread even comes close there will only be a Guinness eBook of world records

Onedollarnohollar · July 9, 2012 3:53PM

Thanks for jumping on the pile ... but you're too late, it already stopped breathing......

CarlWohlforth · July 9, 2012 4:07PM

I've got a good coin for this thread. It too has something long that might qualify it as a candidate for a different world record.

Onedollarnohollar · July 9, 2012 4:16PM

You should be embarrassed Carl.

CarlWohlforth · July 9, 2012 4:24PM

Hey, I'm on your side! I'm just trying to get this coin related. So why not post coins that might set records themselves.

Onedollarnohollar · July 10, 2012 3:25AM

I'm not looking for anyone to be on my side, especially childish people. I was trying to start an adult thread about coins and experiences related to them.

By the way, this is day three of the thread...and they said it wouldn't last....
