To be fair, I ripped into condition freak. Did I deserve a ban? hm

 

There was a delay in my ban, I had made several more posts, using profanity proliferously that night.

 

Perhaps a warning would have sufficed.

 

Alas...

 

Thanks for the love peeps :)

How come the coin guys never get strikes?
If you read the US Coin or Numismatics General Forums periodically you'll see some interesting and often heated exchanges, but they tend to not get too personal. They can be pretty funny though, mostly due to the arguments being out of context (or understanding of a comic-centric person).

 

I think the coin folks are more akin to those frequenting the GA forums. Well mannered, and they have a better perspective on the market and don't deal with wild price fluctuations that may color the viewpoints of posters in other forums that lead to friction. Also very little to debate about first appearances and such. 2c

One time condition freak posted something I found highly offensive and I despooned a word to call him.

It got wiped and I just got a warning (apparently the mod found what he said offensive as well and understood why I, in anger, responded as I did.)

 

I still apologized afterward to condition freak. I may not agree with his...uh... points of view.... in fact, I may feel a lot more strongly about his points of view than I'm letting on, but... it's for the mods to decide. He's gotten his warnings and strikes.

 

I try and let that anger wash away, man.

 

Life's too short. Spend it on things that make you smile.

I find it best to not get involved. That's why we have the ignore function. Personally, I have only ever had 2 people on it, but it has made the boards much more enjoyable for me.

 

Isn't that weird how that feature can make it so much more enjoyable? I only have one on it, but holy cow, what a difference.

I think the coin folks are more akin to those frequenting the GA forums.

I think the adjective you're searching for is "old".

 

I think they realize they have a finite amount of time and energy left. They choose to use it wisely.
