[QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 250726, member: 112"]Not really, I know it may seem that way at times but to a large degree that is because you are reading the written word instead of listening to someone speak. Listening to the spoken word you can hear the inflection and tone of voice of the person speaking and that causes the listener to take what is being said in a very different way than if they just read it. There is also a reason for it - and that is to help others learn. It is very important in this hobby to use the correct terminolgy - otherwise those you are talking to will not understand what you are saying. And since there are approx 200 people at any given time reading these posts it is important to be correctly understood. So CoinNewbie - do not be offended if and when someone corrects you for using the wrong terminology or stating incorrect information. They are doing it to [B]help[/B] not only you, but the thousands of others who will also read the very same posts ;)[/QUOTE]
