The good aspects DO out weigh the bad, just no one should CHOOSE confrontation as the first aspect in their view of the boards. Seemingly, those invited see it as one extra way of being involved, but don't think it's worth it at face value when invited....... As someone who has had there tiffs and don't want it to be the norm, cause who cares what i think, the invited people to me see it as pointless. They get enough of it in their day to day. I get it though, trying to be nice to everyone and be sincere will have it's off days, no one wants a reputation Comics4All 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get giving someone another way of looking at things can be beneficial, but most of the time, it is of no use, no matter how you'd "like to help". If it ends in the other being offended, then the time was wasted, idk. No one should take the boards that serious, no matter how much of a belonging it provides Everyone here has merits, it's caring enough to point that out that helps, if it is still not received well then at least your hands were clean. I speak to myself mostly, I wake up on the wrong side of the bed every so often too, a little forgiveness goes a long way in my book Comics4All and oakman29 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My point was more to do with the credibility afforded new posters (a majority of them) than the dollar amount of their collections. And I think that is how particular posters view the boards, as seen by a certain thread on New Years eve. 1950's war comics 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soon after I joined in 2008, I'd be quite enthusiastic about the boards in the two comic shops I went to, on-and-off over the following two years until I stopped buying new comics. Nothing but complete disinterest. Glad you're here Paul.Happy New Year Ken Aldred, oakman29, ADAMANTIUM and 1 other 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THE_BEYONDER Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 1 minute ago, Hollywood1892 said: I agree But it takes a long time to get too the heart and soul of someone, too see who they truly are and what motivates them, and I imagine some people have left because of the reactions of others. And in leaving, lose out on an invaluable resource of comic knowledge. Everything that’s anything in this age of encapsulation has been discussed to death here. I’m not sure I’ve ever seen a legitimate comic question go unanswered here. It’s instrumental. There’s insufficiently_thoughtful_persons everywhere. All you can do is try not to be one. oakman29 and Hollywood1892 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
