Anonymouswhile i realize that i seldom post, and many of my posts haven't necessarily been succinct or 100% thought provoking, i figure it may be worth pointing out that a lot of people respond to sean's posts, and i have to imagine that, based on the lack of response to a post i made recently about southern leaguers, if nobody wanted anything to do with this kid, the topics he posts, however innane, would quickly fall to the bottom faster than my SL hypothesis post or t206.com post.
as a daily lurker, i see many posts which start out very seriously, and deteriorate into absurdity yet continue being popular threads for days. sean just seems to be skipping the thought provoking topics of conversation which initially drew all of us to this board and going straight for where post 50 typically is in any given thread.
i am relatively new to vintage cards (about 2 years into the hobby) and get a ton out of this board for its educational value and the opinion of many veteran hobby experts. i aso enjoy the comedy very much, but if anything, if the topic of who to ban and who not to ban is being discussed, i'd ban the people who make pointed, personal attacks, in, say, a heated "to slab or not to slab" debate before i'd ban a kid who isn't being malicious. but that's just one man's opinion.
