Just my 2 cents about Blowout.com forums

I don't think we will be a chatty site like you are looking for. Most of us are a bit older but you will still see a lot of kudos and thank yous. It kind of goes with the territory.
Also, it looks like you do mostly football so maybe that is part of the issue. Football cards aren't collected as heavily as baseball. Good luck in the hunt.

I believe I already gave my full name to be able to join the site.
I dont need to keep typing it out in the open due to typical internet fears etc.

when I make a trade or transaction my full name will be known

It is a rule given at the top of the website. You don't have to post your name if you stick to just talking about the hobby and not giving opinions about people or company.

Welcome to Net54baseball.com. These forums are devoted to both Pre- and Post- war baseball cards and vintage memorabilia, as well as other sports. There is a separate section for Buying, Selling and Trading - the B/S/T area!! If you give an opinion of a person or company your full name needs to be in your post. Contact the moderator at leon@net54baseball.com should you have any questions or concerns. Enjoy!

not a smart rule if the other person is an obsessive compulsive criminal who then harasses you.
I didnt give an opinion about any company. I gave an opinion about the general behavior of a forum of people using fake names themselves.
that doesnt merit my personal information to an unknown population. My first name is adequate for being open to unknown people. Its common sense to not keep giving your full name.

You agreed to the few rules this forum has when you signed up. The requirement that your name be listed in any post where you provide an opinion on another person, or entity, is not open to interpretation, or discussion. You provided an opinion on Blowout.com. Therefore, your full name needs to be listed in the post where said opinion was provided. You can either abide by this rule, or you will not be allowed to continue posting here.

As for this topic, what, exactly, did you hope to accomplish?

And, yes, you did provide an opinion of the site:

that site is/was childish but at least more active than here or =54=.

I rebutted your interpretation intellectually,logically and correctly already.

Your redundancy is unnecessary. This place has my full name for the honesty of transactions and reputation. I dont need to spell it out everywhere to an untrustworthy global internet. Do you have enough common sense to get that?

I hoped to accomplish that I'm an honest adult with good intentions, who is sick and tired of people who cant handle adult logic and opinions.

I'll leave it alone here and just talk about cards since anything else frightens and confuses most people.

Just me, but doesn't seem like the best start as a new member. Yellow flags are already popping up for me. I do wish you good luck though, there are some really nice guys here that have already helped me on my collecting adventures.

Your continued arguing of your 'position', which as noted is in clear violation of the posted rules (which are some of the most lax of any forum which I have ever been involved), only leads any 'honest adult' to question one's 'good intentions'. It has nothing to do with intellect, logic, or common sense. Though I would hope you could see how those of us with those qualities would question your true intentions.

I will probably have at most, 1 additional response to any of this. Good luck and happy collecting!

Looks like the same old routine here but at least it will probably be over a bit quicker than his other attempts. Cheers!

Let's just follow this to a logical conclusion, shall we? Strictly for argument's sake, let's say you didn't provide an opinion on the site (though you clearly did). You, then, provided an opinion about the posters on Blowout.com. This still falls within the rule:

If you give an opinion of a person or company your full name needs to be in your post.

You can argue semantics all you want. You can also insult the intelligence of the posters here. Doesn't bother me one bit. The inevitable result is the same, because it seems you're incapable of discerning what is acceptable behavior here, and what is not.
