@jmlanzaf indicated he was in time out for 2 weeks.
I do find it strange that all his posts and comments are/were deleted.
Also that he can still post but comments show up as removed.
Friends, I had to play agent 007. I already located jmlanzaf. I am waiting for his reply. If he answers, I will pass along any message he has for you guys here.
He communicated with me yesterday via PM which is apparently working. He'll be back on Oct 23 unless they let him out earlier for good behavior.

Our friend PerryHall already brought you the update! I managed to get in touch with him on another platform, and he told me the same thing—that he's locked up in jail. I told him I was going to ask around here if there's any lawyer to defend him so he can get out soon, lol. Big hugs to the forum!
There are pms and other communications that PCGS management sees that we don't. We've seen many members go poof, even Mr. Feld, so apparently no one is beyond their potential restrictions.

I believe he may have been saying the posts and comments are not deleted but a type of hidden thing.
Hopefully returning when time out is over.
BRB gonna go get myself jailed so I can post political content that no one will notice for a couple of weeks.
In solidarity and support of our friend and contributor @jmlanzaf I shall log off and not post until he returns on the 23rd. I know very few, if any, care, but if I don't post my intention, I would be likely to break it. (I'll be on read-only.)

He needs a break from here more then anyone. I'm surprised all his posts didn't already break this forum! 🤣 😉

Superb collections are built more by omission than by addition.
Very odd. Even if there was one problematic post, why remove all his comments? 🤔
Unless he requested it in response to the jailing....
.
That's a lot of posts to remove.

I hate for him, but did they have to put kitty cat in jail too?
Did someone else disappear?
There is a post October 9, 2026 5:10PM ET that shows as "Unknown" and "This content has been removed" in the thread below.
That seems to be after jmlanzaf posts were gone so may be another member gone?

Isn't that a dog?

I think so. Maybe @Creg knows it’s a dog named Kitty Cat, but forgot to capitalize the name.

He'll be back on 10/23. Right @jmlanzaf ? 🤣 👍

It’s not another member gone. I believe @jmlanzaf can “post” but that the forum can’t see what he writes.

Who is this Unknown man?
"When they can't find anything wrong with you, they create it!"
If the government ever did that to @jmlanzaf it would fall under "cruel and unusual punishment". Fortunately PCGS isn't the government.
Looks like he tried to post just after you.
The pain must be terrible. Like a ghost that is almost visible but can't be heard.

Alive and kicking on Facebook. He hasn't done coins for a long time but did recently reminisce about them there.

At least for this instance, he is “irrefutably accurate”. 🤣🤣

@Creg He just answered "no"; now, what was the question?
I believe he may have been saying the posts and comments are not deleted but a type of hidden thing.
Hopefully returning when time out is over.

That's a low blow. I think if @jmlanzaf could comment, he would say that you are being harsche.
Friends, I had to play agent 007. I already located jmlanzaf. I am waiting for his reply. If he answers, I will pass along any message he has for you guys here.
I thought that he said yes twice.
He communicated with me yesterday via PM which is apparently working. He'll be back on Oct 23 unless they let him out earlier for good behavior.

I thought he said “yes” once and

Anyhow, here’s some stuff to hold you and the puppy over—

This is how I picture @jmlanzaf serving time

I wonder if his post count will be reset to 0? 😉
Doubtful.
BRB gonna go get myself jailed so I can post political content that no one will notice for a couple of weeks.
Christmas is early this year, hope it gets cleared up quick 🙏
That would be one way to keep us in line. A jail sentence and total post count deletion.
Will he lose a STAR?
Fingers crossed it doesn't lead to that.
He’ll be back soon fortunately.
Something tells me that theres a few more that got jailed as well that we dont know about
Grrrrr wtf
.
Extra post grrrrrr
. can’t imagine what he said. He’s always so politically correct.

Godspeed jmlanzaf.
