    @desertgem - I thought that using another username was not allowed.

    Actually decriminalized is not the same as legalized.
    (In regards to the Denver, Colorado news/decision on mushrooms.)

    And east is east and west is west and if you take cranberries and stew them like applesauce they taste much more like prunes than rhubarb does.

    The US MINT though did do extensive testing on Test zinc coinage, which did not resemble any circulated coinage for several years prior. All testing pieces are called "nonsense pieces" and look "similar" though completely different.

    I'm still perplexed why people think *only* the US Mint can do a Rockwell test on .. well, anything. Anyone can buy a Rockwell spec'd test machine and do all these things themselves after the fact if they wish. You don't even need one of the machines to get the ball or other shapes indent.

    I'm more perplexed why anyone would claim that a 1981-D cent with random marks has "exposed zinc", and not post the single most relevant observation, HOW MUCH THE COIN WEIGHS. If it weighs 3.1g, that's not "exposed zinc". If it weighs 2.5g, it's time to start investigating whether it is some sort of pattern or test strike. I know which one I'd put my money on.

    Did ya ever bother to look and see ? I think not, otherwise you probably wouldn't be making the claims you are, but then again, maybe ya would. This is his original account, available to anybody who looks -
    https://www.cointalk.com/members/robert-lahti.95718/

    Yup, he was a member here alright, for all of 1 day. Made a grand total of 2 posts, both the same I might add. And he didn't write a single word - not one. Which kinda makes it hard to say what his writing style was like doesn't it ?

    Hmmm, could be, but I wouldn't know because I don't use FB - wouldn't use it on a bet. As for your last 2 sentences, the number of people who write like that are legion ! So it's kinda hard to say that this one's that one, and that one's this one. Anybody, could be anybody. And by the way, if ya Google the name, you get over 13,000 hits, a whole lot of different people all with the same name.
    https://www.google.ca/search?as_q=&..._occt=any&safe=images&as_filetype=&as_rights=

    Tell me how many of those are the same person ?

    But here's the bottom line. I don't care about what somebody does on some other website, I only care about what they do on this one. As long as they follow the rules on this one, then they're allowed to stay. And to the best of my knowledge, the person in question hasn't broken any of them.

    Does he ? Please tell us, what are they ? And I'm asking because I sure can't any evidence of it - and I've looked. And you've claimed elsewhere that you have proof of it - OK, what's the proof ? I'm willing to listen. But it needs to be actual proof not just supposition on your part. And it needs to be found on this forum, not all over the internet. As I said above I only care what people do here, not someplace else.

    It isn't allowed.

    Oh it can happen, it's possible alright. But to the best of my knowledge, every single one that has ever done it has been caught and the duplicate accounts removed - by me.

    For what reason exactly ? Because he posts what you consider to be be bad information as you have claimed so very, very many times ? And not only about him but about others as well ? Well Chris I'll tell ya, if I banned members for posting bad information on this forum - we wouldn't have very many members left !

    Or because you and others think he's a "troll" ? Same kinda thing goes for that reason - tons of members would be banned if that reason for used for justification ! And yeah, you might even be one of 'em yourself ! Ya see, more than a few members have claimed you're a troll at various times.

    Oh, and by the way, I've been called a troll myself more than a few times. And I seriously doubt that you are anybody else can find even 1 member who has been said to have posted bad information - more times than such claims have been made about me ! Shall I ban myself ?

    So no Chris, the only reason that people get banned around here is because they break the rules enough times to justify it, or they break a single rule that is serious enough to justify it. And being called a troll, or thought of as being a troll, by other members, or posting what some members call bad information - neither of those things is even in the rules - let alone reason or justification for banning somebody.

    Oh, he's had attention since the day he joined Jeff - attention from me. I have investigated and watched and looked at every report ever made, and pretty much everything he's ever done. And not once have I ever found any reason to say he can't be here - not once. (that's the end of my response to you Jeff)

    Now none of you guys are aware of any of that, but then there's no reason you should be. That's because the mods are not allowed to discuss what they do as mods. And if that's the case why am I doing so in this case ? It's because I'm tired of and fed up with all this nonsense ! I'm sick of it !

    If the members here don't like somebody, or disagree with what they have to say, or don't think they shouldn't be allowed to say what they say - then simply ignore the person, don't reply to their threads and or posts. It's just that simple. If you do that, eventually they'll simply go away. But as long as you give them the attention they want - they'll stick here like glue.

    And you all might want to apply some of that same thinking to yourselves - because there's always somebody who thinks the same way about you. Yeah, YOU ! - all of you !

    Now if ya see somebody break the rules, by all means report it. You can rest assured that I myself will look at, review, and investigate single one of them - every one ! And I do, every one, every day. And if I don't something, or one of the other mods doesn't do something, then that means we don't think there's anything that needs done. In other words we don't agree with you and your report.

    But when something does need doing - we do it ! But just because you're not personally aware that we did it - does not mean that it didn't happen. It merely means you're not aware of it.
