The one thing I try to take into account is that everyone is different- there is no way everything will always be smooth sailing. And I agree that many people who might not like a person because of what they write on the internet might have a totally different opinion of that same person if they were to meet at a show or wherever.
And with that being said, I think that's where there's sort of a "good ol' boys" group on Net54 who have a hard time adapting to people they haven't had the pleasure of meeting in person. I have made quite a few friends on the board, but have not met anyone in person. I hope I can make it to the California show and put some faces to some names and create some more friendships. If not, all is well. There also seems to be a problem with some older collectors accepting new information that differs with information that they have been presenting as fact; the old "it's my way or the highway" type of attitude. They refuse to accept information no matter how sensible and well researched it is, because it's different than what they have believed or posted for so long. Sometimes this creates an air of hostility, in my opinion, and naturally creates some type of divide. If there was a chance at being open minded to collective research, an old dog may actually be able to learn new tricks   Matt- the Ice Cube post had me rolling Sincerely, Clayton

Regarding hostilities, I think you are only looking at it from one side. If a collector has been around for a very long time, doing a lot of research, and a newer collector pops in and presents contradictory theories as fact, there is going to be a hostile reaction. Sometimes it's not what you say - it's how you say it. Regarding the

because that's what it is  The second paragraph~ I do understand what you are saying, just don't know if I agree. I've seen contradictory theories presented as theories that make more sense, and the reader is always open to judge for themselves- at least that's how these things have always came across to me. I've never read them presented as fact only, and the people presenting the theories (and sometime's evidence) are always open to a rational discussion. I do agree with "sometime's it's not what you say, but how you say it". I think I myself have this problem, and as hard as I try to word things right, sometimes it doesn't come out right on a monitor Anyway, the board will roll on and there will always be some great threads going. We can all have a good time & check out some cards !!! Sincerely, Clayton

Personally, I'm torn. I don't know if everyone in this thread pretty much sucks or totally sucks. My dog has more insightful thoughts on baseball cards than this crowd. And he's been dead for six years.
P.s. Your religion is silly and your political views are childlike. P.s.s. It's called grammar. Try it some time. Last edited by drc; 03-05-2013 at 11:57 AM.

why is everyone putting down the autograph side? at least the beefs are well-defined and at the end of the day you know where you stand over there.
used to be only lichtman and rob d were the snarky ones. now that they post less there's a bunch of people trying out for those spots, unfortunately they're not as smart, funny, or knowledgeable.
