And there's nothing wrong with that. Look, smell, touch....best feelings in the world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the authority Posted March 15, 2017 Share Posted March 15, 2017 I started reading the posts from old vets here 7 or 8 years ago. I joined around 4 years ago and have been on here daily or close to it ever since. I mostly post in Moderns because that is what read. In fact, I've been reading moderns since the early '70s. They've changed their names over the years to Silver, Bronze, Copper, etc. but not when they were fresh in my hands. I've made many good friends from all walks of life, all over the planet, and I'm absolutely thrilled with my decision to join the community. I like at least 99% of the people I've had the good fortune to converse with and it would seem that even trolls come around to being friendly over time. After Moderns, I most often visit Comics General, Copper, Bronze, and Magazine sections of the boards in that order. The Heating Up sections of each of those has allowed me to cash in and buy lots and lots of comics so thanks to all who contribute to those subsections. I enjoy that we can PM each other. I post there much more than the boards everyone sees as I've grown very fond of a few people here. Its a great way to communicate with many people everywhere without bogging down the main sections with personal stuff. Thanks for having me.

1Cool Posted March 15, 2017 Share Posted March 15, 2017 I think it was after I found a large stash of Silver-Age book in a buddies garage that had been left there from a previous tenant. I started selling them on E-Bay and someone suggested I get some of them graded and a Google search later I stumbled upon this place. I've taken large chunks of time off during the last 10 years but this was always the place I went to get accurate comic book news and info. Just like a family - everyone doesn't always get along but the general love is evident. I'd definitely miss this place if it ever went away.
