Default Christmas Presents for the Beginner

Posted By: Seth B.

I, like Al, think Peter is being ridiculous with this post. First off, you can give him advice, but he's made it clear before that he won't be paying attention. Peter did not post this up here to get responses for what he's going to buy his nephew. He made it clear in his initial post with his "well, but he likes girls, and I never got any cards" nonsense. Peter did it to get attention, and it worked (unfortunately, I'm partly to blame). I have not seen one, NOT ONE, worthwhile contribution to someone else's thread from Peter. Certainly nothing pertaining to vintage cards. He basically sits waiting until he can jump aboard with some Barry Bonds nonsense, or he posts something only tangentially worthwhile. If you post eight times about cards and once about what to get your nephew, so be it. If you never post about cards, and you incessantly post about nephews liking girls, and MOREOVER you do so in a joking sort of way that makes it clear that you can't take seriously any advice to tone down your OT posts, I'm sorry, that doesn't slip by. Josh, I can't give peter slack in marginally good posts, and then berate him in really awful ones. I've never been this incensed by anyone's posting on this board before. Usually, I don't say a word unless it's about the two or three sets I'm working on. But frankly, this board would be worlds better without Peter.
