<p>[QUOTE="medoraman, post: 1622607, member: 26302"]Yeah, maybe I am just hopeful. I remember stupid stuff I did as a kid. I do think I saw an improvement with him deciding to try to buy slabbed coins, (shocker, Chris saying buying slabs is a good idea <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />). I was hoping him only buying graded coins would slowly show him a good coin versus a bad one.</p><p><br /></p><p>I seriously did not mind him starting lots of threads. At least it generated conversations, and a few of them turned out worthwhile. In that regard I viewed him as our "replacement Ruben". Some days are slow around here, and its nice to have someone creating something to talk about.</p><p><br /></p><p>Do I think Tim realizes what he doesn't know? No. Do I think he talked way too authoratatively on subjects he knoew little about? Yes. Do I think some were way too hard on a young kid who simply is overambitious? Yes I do. I don't care how uninformed someone is, or how wrong someone is on a subject, I simply view the VERY personal attacks on him as uncalled for. Disagree all you wish, prove to everyone how he is misinformed, etc. but I never thought PERSONAL attacks were warranted. I would have gone "internet board postal" on anyone saying the things to me that were said to Tim, in my eyes unprovoked.</p><p><br /></p><p>Paul, I would have never asked for BNB to be banned either. I read some of the threads you are referring to. If someone here is sticking up for Tim but was actively trying to get BNB banned I could understand your statement about hypocrisy, but I would never advocated either of them to be banned or have personal insults hurled at them.</p><p><br /></p><p>Just my view. </p><p><br /></p><p>Chris[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
