    << <i>I actually understand the original intent of this topic--that when browsing Collectors Corner, looking for, say, DMPL Carson City Morgans, a coin will show up in the listing that looks really gray, but when you pull up the illustration, you'll see a Walking liberty half. >>

    Oh, so that's what this is about. Thanks for the explanation.

    Jsf - Do you mind if I talk for a little bit, while you, um, catch your breath? Now that I understand, I think I agree, this could conceivably be construed as "spamming." Why didn't you just clarify that from the start instead of reacting so provocatively to the first reply? You'd have saved us all, including yourself, a lot of grief.

    OK, you "alerted" us. You performed an invaluable public service. Now what? Don't you think you ought to be "alerting" the administrators of that website? If you're right, its intended purpose is being undermined, isn't it? Something is out of whack, there. >>




    kurtdog, THANK YOU for trying to understand, but, NO, whoever came up with the statement you quoted, has interpreted my OP equally as incorrectly as MANOFCOINS did.

    "Spamming PCGS Collector's Corner almost worse than posting no dates, posting Morgans in with Walkers, false dates entered, intentionally it seems, or the lister was out to lunch.

    ..thanks NNC "

    Once again, most everybody else, I posted the "what" and "where" about my observation, in my OP. Do you people really need links too? If you can't find it or figure it out, maybe you should go back to lurker status? I'll working on improving my writing habits, y'all work on improving your reading comprehension.

    M.F. posted: "...his thread title and first post (since edited one or more times)..." NO, Marky, check the time of your post. It was a few minutes after I edited anything in my first post. Get it right and truthful at least, bubby. >>

    I didn't say when my first post was written, with respect to when you made your edit(s). I merely said, in reference to your first post "..(since edited one or more times)". And it was, indeed, edited one or more times - I got it right and was truthful. And quit telling me what to do, Mr. forum cop.

    This thread is very Seinfeldesque. The thread about nothing.

    Mr. Feld, don't lower yourself to his level. You are quite well respected on this forum and possess a wealth of knowledge most would be envious of.

    no no no, Marky. You aren't going to worm out of it that quick. You said, "since", clearly implying I edited my OP, AFTER you made your first post. That isn't true, at all. ...and ME, a forum cop?! HA!! The last time I checked, Collector's Corner isn't a forum. Quit trying to twist the truth to suit your story.

    Collector's Corner doesn't warrant a "forum cop" per se, but from time-to-time it sure needs someone to report companies abusing the PCGS-provided service. Unless of course, and as I questioned from the start, there was an honest listing error. That question seems to have been lost and gone unanswered along the way, for some reason.

    Y'all watch out for RRich2004, Mr. member-for-a-month, he's on a roll! He needs to back up several posts and catch up.

    I'll try one last time to communicate with you in this thread, and if you prefer to disbelieve and/or twist what I say, that is your choice.

    I wasn't trying to imply anything about the timing of your edit(s) in relation to the time I first posted. I had no reason to do so, as your post was unclear to me and a number of other readers, both before and after you edited it.

    My "forum cop" remark was tongue-in-cheek and was with respect to your telling me what to do ("get it right") - it had nothing to do with Collector's Corner. In telling me that, you were being every bit the forum cop you accused me of being, for writing what I did in my fist post, below. I was trying to help you help readers understand your message. You obviously chose to take it differently.

    <<OK, now try to put yourself in the shoes of a someone who didn't see or experience what you did on Collector's Corner.... Would you understand what you, the OP was talking about?>>

    Have a great thread.

    i knew it wouldnt be long before the eedioot whose avatar is of a vietnamese boy wearing a wig stepped in to see if he could recite some rules. yeah you know who you are, what is surprising to me is that you can tolerate youreself. i dont care what youve been told, youd have to climb the ladder to earn the title of fool.

    ebaybuyer---This post is totally uncalled for. Think before you post and you may avoid embarassing yourself.

    M.F. said: "...his thread title and first post (since edited one or more times)..."

    nope, sorry M.F., your story line stinks.

    You laid out my OP as a sequence of events. You were not simply talking about your first post following mine.

    1- you mention my first post and, 2- it, since (after) being edited. Not "since", as in because it was edited. You clearly had a timeline on your mind when you wrote what you did.

    There was nothing "since" about my first post, as it was made (regardless of how many times I edited it) ENTIRELY before you ever made a post. If the edit note wasn't on there no one would've known if it was edited or not. It would've just seemed to be a regular OP.


    Strictly speaking based on how I was raised, there's something refreshing about people who are truly honest, real Christians. They always tell the truth. They don't have to worry about twisting the truth to suit their story or deflecting rumor or suspicion about something they said being other than truthful. Anything less is, well, figure it out for yourself.
