Default Why is it...?

Why is it that a couple of times each year, this board gets invaded by escapees from the CU Forum? Invariably these guys are in a "huge" fight over something, have been banned or locked out of that board, and elect to continue it over here. It seems their issue is always over $25-$50, usually in shiny new cards.

Do these guys think we are incompetent? We have many posters on Net 54 who are perfectly capable of mucking up our own board! We don't need help from immigrants from other boards! There are many of us who can start a fight and continue one! We can play offense or defense! We already know the meaning of the word "disfunctional!"


What can we do to take our board back?


(Short of that, what can we do to discuss cards again?)

I understand what you are saying but we were warning the fellow collectors here about this guy in question.I for one don't want to see anyone get ripped off.I was kind of hoping you guys would send Marshall our way as payback.I thought he was a riot but no such luck.

Perfectly understandable, but Leon warned people in post #1. By post #10 or so, we, pretty much, knew there were concerns. The last 100 posts (including mine) are all off topic or overkill.

This is a VINTAGE BASEBALL CARD BOARD. Please point me to concerns which are about that subject.


Edited to add:
Will you take Marshall and Bruce?

Default well

It's my fault this thread started at all. The reason I started it was obvious. There was someone on our BST that seemed to have some issues, real or not, following him. I feel it is my/the moderators responsibility for alerting other Net54baseball.com members. I mistakenly thought it was someone else with a very close USER ID to the one in question. That was my mistake and for that I am sorry and apologize. As for this thread.....I am not sorry I started it as it needed to be talked about since there were things on our BST that it pertained to ie...the people involved. Regards

Why aren't post-war discussions sent over to the post-war side? That's what we have it for, so that we can send these train wrecks over where noone will look at them.

In March of 1973 a new shipment of blotter had just arrived on campus. I thought I saw a Roberto Clemente signature on the side of the sheet of 100 hits but then again maybe it was floating over the sheet, or maybe it was on the giant caterpillar that was crawling over the overpass that I was driving under. Or wait, maybe that was 1974.

Leon,

Would you please edit my name and net54 handle out of your initial post on this thread?

This will help close my involvement in this.

Thanks,
Bob.
