<p>[QUOTE=&quot;JCro57, post: 3041765, member: 92083&quot;]I get that experienced collectors are sick of seeing new posts all the time asking the same darn questions from people who are new, don&#039;t understand this hobby well, and want to know if they struck it rich. Many new members don&#039;t understand the difference between errors and varieties, what is and is not PMD, or the difference between mechanical doubling or a true doubled die. I also agree that things are getting ridiculous where people are searching for miniscule errors with a 20x loupe and trying to be on the front page of Numismatic News with their new discovery. Some people post specifically to start trouble. Oh well!</p><p><br /></p><p>However, some people on this forum are very happy to come off as condescending jerks and downright rude even if a member asks an innocent question in a polite and respectful manner. Like it or not, some people are easily offended when you tell them their new discovery is common, or junk, or worthless even if you are polite. Ignore them! You don&#039;t always have to respond. </p><p><br /></p><p>And keep this in mind:&nbsp; When you find yourself arguing with an idiot, it soon becomes difficult to tell the difference.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
