Wayne EllisI hope it's okay if I join in here as this is my first post. I joined LTS in the very beginning and what was and still is appealing about LTS is that it has been a safe place to discuss sportscards without the constant bashing by anonymous trolls such as what happens on CU. I've always collected post war cards (for the past 4 years 1955 Bowman football) and I don't know anything at all about the pre war cards that I understand are mostly talked about here. I may be wrong on this but that is just what I've heard.
I just want to clear up a couple of things. There are a lot of great people of LTS and most of what is discussed is very good. It's not perfect but it's much better than CU. I don't consider it to be an elitist group. It's just a place to talk cards. Like any other forum there are times when it becomes far from perfect and deviates from the discussion on cards - but I forgive Varha for this.
Dan - It's been a long time and I hope you and your family are doing well! I remember that initial discussion and I didn't agree with what was being said either but I do want you to know that isn't the norm. It's been a great board. I do appreciate all of the help you've been to me over the years.
Anthony - I can't tell you how much I miss you on LTS! I'm not involved in the politics and I honestly don't have any idea why you left other than something happened but anyways I hope that everyting is going well for you. (I did finally buy a digital camera as per your recommendation.)
Dav - your collection just continues to impress. I've been building the 55 bowman football set for 4 years now and I'm down to 6 cards that I need in PSA 8 or better to finish. Now that you're pretty much done maybe I can find those cards! (lol) Like the others, I do miss you being on LTS.
Whether you choose to post here, CU, or LTS I just think it's much more important to enjoy our hobby, enjoy collecting our cards, and enjoy exchanging knowledge.
Take care all!
