I never like the term"Lurker"

I find the practise<BR>of running off ANY collector simply because<BR>of a difference in opinion (and not foul <BR>language issues)UNACCEPTABLE, vicious, and<BR>repugnant.<BR><BR>My point in firing off some rounds with my<BR>gatling gun on the "other board" was to point<BR>out these issues. It was certainly a lost point,<BR>any attempt at free speech was muzzled with the<BR>crudest innuendo. Over the years this has been<BR>a continuing theme with many wonderful acquaintances<BR>of mine driven off because others here were too<BR>sanctimonious, grossly inconsiderate, and selfish. <BR><BR>I am ASHAMED at the long term board members for<BR>sitting in silence while others here have suffered<BR>and quite enjoyed slinging mud at those responsible.<BR>Thanks Runscott for the "other board".<BR><BR>

Posted By: <b>David</b><p>Yikes, as a long term and frequest poster, I'm sorry you find my input so offensive. I'll quit posting, and if you have any questions about authenticity or forgies, I recommend find someone else for advice.

They merely want to discuss the hobby that they love so much. <BR><BR>To those people, they have my utmost respect.

Posted By: <b>B C Daniels</b><p>I like him a lot. talked to him a couple fo times and will probably sell him some altered cards of matty* However, comeon! Nobody ran him off the board. He chose to leave. No one can make anyone do anything from behind a screen and you know this now! he can choose not to fight with anyone.
