I never like the term"Lurker"

...infers to me that someone is creeping
about, when actually some of the REGULAR
posters are creeping me out.

As a busy family man, I simply have no
time to contribute on a regular basis.
I enjoy some anonymity with the board
name I use, it is my experience from
Full Count that certain continuing board
members CONTINUE to turn on others like
a pack of jackals. I find the practise
of running off ANY collector simply because
of a difference in opinion (and not foul
language issues)UNACCEPTABLE, vicious, and
repugnant.

My point in firing off some rounds with my
gatling gun on the "other board" was to point
out these issues. It was certainly a lost point,
any attempt at free speech was muzzled with the
crudest innuendo. Over the years this has been
a continuing theme with many wonderful acquaintances
of mine driven off because others here were too
sanctimonious, grossly inconsiderate, and selfish.

I am ASHAMED at the long term board members for
sitting in silence while others here have suffered
and quite enjoyed slinging mud at those responsible.
Thanks Runscott for the "other board".

Yikes, as a long term and frequest poster, I'm sorry you find my input so offensive. I'll quit posting, and if you have any questions about authenticity or forgies, I recommend find someone else for advice.

I would apologize in advance for what offended you?,
as I value your contributions, I would hope in the
future to learn more of your work, I am somewhat
familiar of your expertise.

As David didnt seem to know what
I was talking about and to avoid
furhter misunderstanding, I was
referring specifically to
'regulars' Koos-Daniels
and a certain Mr. Mathewson
who did not agree with their
viewpoints and was 'run out'.

Some long term board members don't care to fire the "gatling" gun, nor do they care to contribute a few rounds so that it may be fired by someone else. They merely want to discuss the hobby that they love so much.

To those people, they have my utmost respect.

and a point well taken. I could sit silent.
But I am questioning the value of 'running
out' collectors like Mr. Mathewson.

I like him a lot. talked to him a couple fo times and will probably sell him some altered cards of matty* However, comeon! Nobody ran him off the board. He chose to leave. No one can make anyone do anything from behind a screen and you know this now! he can choose not to fight with anyone.
