<p>[QUOTE="cdb1950, post: 52043, member: 1735"]Some of the folks in the Forum are drama queens, whether it's a good-bye message or some other topic. Others are more numismatically inclined. Doesn't take long to determine the difference and then to choose what you want to read or not to read. Though this is primarily a numismatic forum, some folks want to talk drama, some want to talk Ebay, family, etc. Again, it doesn't take long to figure out what a person will be posting and to decide what to read or not to read. Sometimes it seems the off-topic discussions tend to outnumber the numismatic discussions, but folks can choose to read them or not. This thread, for example, is off topic, but still a good topic of discussion.
