New Member Saying Hello: Banned From PSA Forums This Morning

Yes, I fully understand. I saw the forums I would use for what I collect. I posted here because it said '& New Member Introductions'. I am sorry if this is the wrong forum for this post. Thanks for the welcome!

No, no need for an apology, you are fine and did everything right. I was just mentioning the other areas as that is where your list of hundreds of post war cards/packs would solicit the most responses. It's all good....and if you did post in an incorrect forum a moderator would just move the thread. You wouldn't be banned for something like that unless you did it over and over and over after being asked (many times) not to. The other moderators and I have a lot of patience for most things. Now, if you go berserk and start talking about someone's family or children, you will be out of here faster than lickity-split . Also, you can always PM me for guidance if you have a question on something concerning the board. Happy collecting!!

and obviously I didn't understand, when I posted the above, what the situation was. I thought these were your PSA 10 Gem Mint cards you had posted.

PSA grading is a rigged game where the insiders win and the outsiders lose. Has been since PSA graded card #1 with at least one grader who was involved knowing it was trimmed. This is just a particularly piggish example. At long last, PSA has no decency...

Go raw; it's more fun and you won't get a hernia lifting a 500 card set.

You know, I collect raw and I am always trying to amass reasons not to slab and the sheer weight never dawned on me. Let's say a collector has 25000 raw cards and 25000 slabs. The raw cards would be a pain to move..The 25000 slabs would be painful to move.

25000 slabs would weigh about 1500 pounds. No, seriously...1500 pounds. That's enough weight to possibly require extra structural support to whatever room they reside in.

Hi David-

Welcome, and nice collection. I watched the video (cool music) and I'm guessing there is something regarding the list you gave in your OP (all Gem Mint 10's) and the packs in the video graded Mint 9's, correct?

Sincerely, Clayton

Hi Clayton. No correlation at all... No jealousy at the 10's at ALL. I am VERY happy with my 9's!!!! None of what you saw in my collection was self submitted. I could not even imagine having to pay for 10's.

I am glad you like the tunes!!!!

Edit: Well, there is one 10 hidden in my collection. So I guess I don't have to imagine having to pay for a 10. I did pay for one.

OK I admit it, I'm confused. Why did you get banned? All I see is an introduction with a long list.

Sincerely, Clayton

P.S. Liked the music, video, and collection !!! Nice job.

Exactly! (LOL). Its just ONE very long sequential submission that got many people on the other site upset. I didn't even START the thread on the certs. It also had a spin-off thread poofed and another thread selectively edited by the moderator. I believe there is one thread over there right now with someone asking ME about the list. Unfortunately, do to circumstances not under my control I am unable to reply to him!

I just got banned from one site. I don't want to get banned from this one for giving any opinions. I am out of the opinion giving business. "Just the facts, Sir" and that list is ALL the facts that I have.

Again... thanks for watching my video!!!!!!!

Welcome David. You'll like it here.

Someone obviously has a great eye for knowing what PSA looks for in a GEM MINT 10. I can't imagine why they would have a problem with you pointing out the skills of one of their submitters!

Go Figure!

[Peter_Spaeth]

What were folks saying over on CU before the moderator stepped in?

[Tobacco&Gum]

David, maybe it was all that Kirby Puckett bashing that got you banned!

Seriously, I read that thread, and I can't imagine why someone would be tossed over it. Do you know if the OP was banned?

[EvilKing00]

rofl - um what were they upset about - i dont get it either.

[insidethewrapper]

I don't understand this post or thread at all.

[boysblue]

Wow! That seems like alot of 10s right there. I don't submit too often but I am assuming the person(s) who submitted those cards must submit all the time and, therefore, must have a very good eye when it comes to assessing cards. That must be it, I suppose.
