Considering merging this section with memorabilia ......

[Leon]

Hey guys
A few years ago when we started this autograph section there were more posts and action. In looking at how it has gone the last several months the thought is to close this section and let these threads be in the regular memorabilia forum. IIRC the reason this was formed was because there was a lot of angst. With getting rid of at least one bad apple, Travis R., most of that has gone away. What do ya'll think?

First, thanks for providing this forum.

For me personally, I really enjoy the sub forum and visit almost every day. I'm only an autograph collector so it would be cool to keep this here rather than merge and have to find the autograph threads that are mixed in with threads about game-used items, etc.

That said, I have fewer than 100 posts so it really shouldn't matter what I prefer.

I kind of enjoy having the separate section for autographs, but I collect memorabilia as well so it wouldn't hurt my feelings that much if they were to be combined. However, if doing so would cause an even greater decline in autograph discussion, I would be against it.

I like the sub-section as well. It's nice to keep the autograph section separate from Memorabilia IMO. I think people will be clicking on page "2" and "3" alot more if they were together. ----meaning a lot of Williams,Mickey, Joe D..."are these real??" type threads will control the Memorabilia thread and good material will be pushed to the back. Not saying those are type of threads aren't good, but they are very frequent.

Just my .02 cents.

I really like the Autographs in its own section, so if I had a vote, I would vote to keep as is.

Just my opinion and thank you again for this forum.

I don't mind either way, but I wonder how many of our membership even know about this forum as there is an inordinate amount of autograph threads that I have to move over to this forum from the memorabilia section.
