In sympathy for the Feld banning.

Anyone up for it?

    I tried to call him on his cellphone...I think he has been banned from Cingular, too.

    (No, I have not seen proof of his banning.)

    Then a boycott might be premature.

    But in preparation of a possible banning, perhaps we should start looking around for a picket sign provider, pitchforks, etc?

    How about a boycott of submissions until PCGS gets their head out of their a$$ and give some definition of "First Strike". How about a submission boycott until they give the results of their testing on the wooden boxes that they promised. How about a submission boycott until they can explain why they don't use the most secure method of shipping coins from shows when they are in their possession. How about a submission boycott until HRH finally decides to answer some questions on the Q&A forum?

    I think a boycott would be healthy. I could spend a little time with my wife (what's her name again?), and when that got boring, post a little across the street.

    Thousands gathered in Denver to hear Coinguy1 discuss the true meaning of "First Strike" while, of course, urging the crowd not to take the law into its own hands.

    Your score = 35
    What does your score mean?
    Well…you must have a really nice personality! Ok, we're just kidding. So you don't laugh at the same things we do -that's cool! However, if you scored this low you're probably not one to laugh at absurdity -including your own. That's too bad -if you can't laugh at yourself, what can you laugh at? Perhaps you're taking things too seriously? Remember, life's way too short for that.

    I highly doubt coinguy1 is banned, permanently or temporarily. I didn't see the "disappearing" thread, but he has been consistent in stating that PCGS' actions in the "first strike" bruhaha are not fraudulent. He bends over backwards to urge others to withhold judgement until facts are in, etc-he is a careful and thoughtful poster, as we all know, or should know.

    Under his public profile:
    Last Visited On: August 9th, 2006 1:21 PM

    In addition, when one attempts to login under a banned ID, one receives "Login Denied, you are not authorized to login to the forums. "
    That's not what one gets when attempting to login as coinguy1 image
    If he's unfairly banned, I'll do all I can to get him back here. Few add as much to the discourse here as Mark.
    But to reiterate, I doubt he's banned.

    I clicked on the link and saw what looked like a high school photo of a girl that had glasses that looked as if they were borrowed from Nelson Rockefeller and the captioned said..."She is a Model now"

    I guess I someone can post an after picture as proof... or just return the glasses...
