Message:: [QUOTE="tenacious, post: 435416, member: 14553"]I have been collecting coins from ancients to moderns for 13 years. I've been involved in, or lurked on, many of the coin forums. Exactly. I like how everyone is included and receives attention and help, or at the very least support and acknowledgment. No one is ignored. There is no "In Crowd" that you feel excluded from. For example, I've seen this happen to others on other forums, and had it happen to me a couple times. Someone will put in a lot of effort and thought to post a truly informative, useful and even entertaining post. Then no one responds. No "Nice post!" No "Thanks!" No "That is useful!". No smiley even. No response at all. It's just ignored. But here I like that people's posts can be acknowledged by posters nominating them for The Topic Nomination Contest. I think this is a great idea. It shows that the posts from the members are valued. I even had a topic nominated and I got 3 Reputation Points! Even though I'm new, and I only post occasionally, I feel a part of the forum. More so than any of the other forums that I've been a member of. But even if this coin forum is friendly it wouldn't be much without its knowledgeable people. This is not Coin Talk Lite. There's always someone who can provide an answer. Or at least steer you in the right direction to look for it.[/QUOTE]
