I’m always amazed at how many people operate on this level. My in-laws are a prime example. They ignore/deflect every hard discussion and convince themselves the world is kittens and rainbows. There are many more people in the world who aren’t strong enough to face reality than are.

I posted this on the Collector's Universe forum and the idiot moderator banned me 2 minutes later. I guess it's time for an alt account over there.

I guess they figure what people don't know won't hurt them. From what I've been told "ignorance is no defense"

Default Just Keep Popping Nincompoops

Frankly, You all can give me shit for speaking my mind and what I firmly believe is a billion dollar fraud going back 20 years. That is not joke. I really don't give a shit about you nay sayers that just want to keep the PSA gravy train rolling. I think you are short sighted and don't stand up for what you believe is right. Either that or you have no moral compass....or perhaps you are too pigheaded or just a complete asshole that only cares about yourself?

I would rather have my old sagging bat winged balls sliced off than to support a company that rips people off consistently and doesn't give 2 shits about their customers.

My parents taught me to stand up for right and wrong and that's what I'm going to do and continue to do until the day I die. I am not part of the problem. I am trying to get the word out and help just 1 person.

If you can't stop associating with criminals to enjoy your hobby or to make money, that's on you. You imbeciles know who you are.

All the work is being done by BODA. Your parents may have taught you that yelling and screaming on a bulletin board = standing up for whats right, but they were wrong.

I’d argue your act on this forum does more harm then good. You are loud, divisive, and from what can tell aren’t involved in the solution. And if you have known about this stuff for 20 years, then where the f!@# where you the last 19.5 years to stand up for whats right and wrong, like your mammy and pappy taught you?

+1 BILLION (see what I did there)

How about the name calling and insulting what people collect? Since you say "people don't get your humor" guess what? It aint funny. Plenty of comedians out of work we can hire. If I posted "idiots and dipshits collect t206s" I don't think I'd be able to stick around here very long. Insulting what people collect isn't why the board exists.

Well, sure. PSA grades most of the cards, makes most of the money, and thus deserves most of the blame simply by volume of its misses, if nothing else. If you pay for something you don't get, that's a problem. If you pay for a complete miss that people end up getting screwed on, that's a problem That is a no-brainer IMO. That does not exonerate SGC or BVG by any means. I feel the same way about them. They don't get a pass either.

I've often wondered if collectors (as in some, not all) overtly and all but advertise that they don't care about accurate grades or correct identification of alterations, what would be their argument for items they bought that are wrongly authenticated?

"I want my money back. This card was mislabeled."
"But you collect cards that are mislabeled."

The moderator is actually pretty cool. This topic was made off-limits months ago with a warning that posts would result in bans. Hence the ban you got. The board is run by PSA, I can understand why they wouldn't want people trashing the company on their own forum.

It's almost worse than that Conor. If you dont agree with what people are saying, you MUST disagree and immediately are pigeon holed to the extreme other side of the argument. It like politics, which we dont discuss here on the boards.

Spot on, Ted. The middle ground has been hollowed out of everything, it seems, which is why I place a strong premium on those with whom I can engage in civil discourse.
