Posted By: <b>vertigojumps</b><p>Sean, just like in organized baseball, some players are not ready to play at the big leagues until they reach certain level of experience.<br /><br />You are clearly not ready to post here and it looks like you don't want to be ready, maybe because of your age and lack of maturity.<br /><br />Again, try to STUDY the message board archive, not just speed read it like a magazine.<br /><br /><br />

Posted By: <b>leon</b><p>No need to worry about his ramblings anymore. He's banned. I was correct in my guess of 2-3 days. He repeatedly did what I told him not to do, publicly and privately, on the board. He had more warnings and deleted threads than anyone ever has. This time I told him to come ask me in 6 mos. if he can come back. I hated to do it but had no choice. best regards

Posted By: <b>Steve M.</b><p>I was just wondering this morning whether you had a block mechanism that could screen him out. It had gotton real annoying.

Sean
 

Posted By: <b>barrysloate</b><p>Funny, but I was responding to his last thread when again it disappeared. And I knew that he disappeared with it. He was one for the books alright. Leon -you are kind of like the soup Nazi- no soup for six months!

Sean
 

Posted By: <b>Steve M.</b><p>I think it was for a year. Leon, you are too too kind to the lad.

Posted By: <b>jackgoodman</b><p>Many tried to make it work. I applaud them. Perhaps a little maturity will help Sean, and he'll be back as a valued contributor some day (tho' not too soon I hope).

Sean
 

Posted By: <b>Richard Masson</b><p>Thank you, Leon

Posted By: <b>David McDonald</b><p>That was some first-rate moderatin', Moderator Dude. You were patient and thoughtful with the lad and really tried to work it out with him. Boy, if this board weren't moderated imagine what it would be like. Scary stuff!

Posted By: <b>jay behrens</b><p>Scarier than me?<br /><br />Jay<br><br>A good friend will come bail you out of jail. A true friend will be sitting next to you saying, "Damn, that was fun."

Sean
 

Posted By: <b>David McDonald</b><p>"Scarier than me?"<br />Strong opinions aren't scary. You're in the bell-curve, man. Not to worry.<br />

Posted By: <b>leon</b><p>Imagine in the old Fullcount board days (this board's predecessor)...there was no deleting, banning, or editing.....even a moderator couldn't do it. What was put on the board stayed on the board. It was truly the virtual worlds wild wild west.....ah, the good ole days <img src="/images/happy.gif" height=14 width=14> And BCD and I really got into it when I told him I didn't think Mello-Mints were so rare.....he blasted me for days....Now I could just zap him <img src="/images/happy.gif" height=14 width=14> (Hi Brian... <img src="/images/happy.gif" height=14 width=14>)

Posted By: <b>joe brennan</b><p> Maybe I can replace some of his rambling posts with a few of my own. I haven't been banned from anything or voted off for that matter.<img src="/images/wink.gif" height=14 width=14> I kinda like the sound of it. What would a T206 Wagner with Broafleaf back in PSA 9 go for? Anybody?? I'd really like an answer now!!! In Arnie's e-mortal words, "I'll be back."<br><br>People said it was a million dollar wound. But the government must keep that money, cause I ain't never seen a penny of it.

Sean
 

Posted By: <b>Sean</b><p>PSA 9 - $780,000,000<br />PSA 10- $9,000,000,000<br /><br />This is assuming it's a Broadleaf 460 back.<br /><br />Hope that helps!<br />Sean BH <br />(NOT that Sean)

Sean
 

Posted By: <b>DJ</b><p>The T206 estimator tends to disagree.<br /><br />PSA9 Broadleaf 360 $ 32.5 Million<br />PSA10 $375.0 Million<br /><br />PSA9 Broadleaf 460 $243.7 Million<br />PSA10 $ 2.8 Billion<br /><br />Sean's banishment had to be done. When I was eight years old, I listened and by his age, set up at a small card show selling cards just enough to make enough money to plug in some set holes on my now worthless 1970's sets. Also my grammar wasn't an issue at that age and by eleven, had published a collecting newsletter. This place would be a mess without a little policing and it's good that the moderator cares enough to clean away the riff-raff.<br /><br />Keep up the good work Leon!<br /><br />DJ<br /><br />P.S When someone gets banished, a question has to be asked. What ever happened to Moraine?

Posted By: <b>joe</b><p>Good job Leon. Really not sure where this kid was coming from. A lot of his postings almost seemed like a practical joke or something.<br /><br />Joe

Posted By: <b>barrysloate</b><p>Talk about moderating a board- last weekend I found myself posting on a "Seinfeld" chat board and you should see the foul language that gets thrown around there. Every four letter word you can imagine and nothing gets deleted. And this is a forum for a TV show about nothing. How do these knuckleheads get so worked up recounting the minutiae of each episode? It was rather funny, but I didn't have the patience for it. Just a bunch of overly sarcastic yahoos.

Sean
 

Posted By: <b>Richard</b><p>Mello Mints aren't that rare. So what's the problem?<br /><br />

Sean
 

Posted By: <b>Brian McQueen</b><p><br />I remember having to remove Adam from our forum just about one year ago today while everyone was at the National in Cleveland. Soon after that, I think he re-surfaced at the Collector's Universe board. Haven't seen or heard of him since.<br /><br />On a sidenote, Barry - sorry about deleting the thread you were typing a response out too. I've unfortunately had to strike a few like that one lately.<br /><br />-Brian

Posted By: <b>barrysloate</b><p>Nothing I said to Sean was all that important. Besides, he wasn't listening anyway.

Posted By: <b>Gary Nuchereno</b><p>I always thought Sean was someone who had been kicked out<br />before and came back as Sean.I think Sean was 25 years old<br />and got lots of laughs with his posts.

Posted By: <b>Kyle</b><p>Any of you ever see the Pixar movie The Incredibles (young boy wants to fight crime with Mr. Incredible. Fast forward and the boy ends up being the villian in the movie)? Wouldn't it be funny to see this young man come back here in 10 years and have some desireable items in his collection? His intention was pure but a line must be drawn at some point.<br /><br />-Kyle-

Posted By: <b>Bob</b><p>New York Times August 2, 2025: Man finds treasure trove in rubble. Baseball Card collector, Sean LNU, found a complete set of E107 baseball cards today, most in excellent to mint condition.

Posted By: <b>Joann</b><p>... and he believes them to be worth about a billion dollars.<br /><br /><img src="/images/happy.gif" height=14 width=14><br /><br />J

Posted By: <b>John S</b><p>At 11, Sean should have been able to exhibit enough maturity to at least respond to the resquests made by board members. Many of us attempted to put into words what it means to be a collector. Sean, unfortunately, is the poster child for the internet youth generation where minimal effort leads to instant gratification in the form of cheap information. He seemed incapable of absorbing any information or feedback except for superlatives (most expensive, oldest, rarest, etc.). Hopefully he will pick up a few books and return ready to at least appreciate some of the baseball related discussion.

Sean
 

Posted By: <b>steve f</b><p>Sean, If you're still able to read these; <br /> <br /> You are obviously very smart, excited and enthusiastic about collecting, those are desirable traits.<br /><br /> The old-time ballplayers were extremely proud and passionate about the Game and those that were in it just for the $ weren't favorites of fans nor the other players. I believe something very similar has occured in this Membership. Discussions of card values and profits cheapens those Players' legacy. <br /><br /> Think of this board as a kinda Baseball Card Library. The students remain quiet and absorb as much as they can before posting. You're young and full of energy. Many newer collectors (adults) read and learn from the messages here, but respectfully do not post because they don't have the knowledge <u>yet</u>. <br /><br /> In no time, you'll receive your library card and be a valuable contributer. Have you noticed that kids you've met and disagreed with in-time often became very good friends?.. <br /><br /> I hope to see you back!
