[QUOTE="red_spork, post: 3122782, member: 74282"]Andrew, First, welcome to CoinTalk. I'm happy to see you finally decided to join us, even if mostly to lurk. As far as lack of worthwhile responses to your posts, while I can understand why that can be frustrating, I for one found your old posts on FORVM very useful when I began collecting and studying RR coinage. I rarely comment on them because I rarely have anything to add but I will say that not only did I learn a lot about coins themselves from those posts, I figured out what sort of books and papers I needed to work on tracking down from your citations. Sometimes I'll even link those old posts from FORVM or RROME here as "further reading" because they provide the information far better than I can on my own. Also, while I know you mostly plan to lurk here I highly recommend posting some of your write-ups: there are many members whom you would recognize here and good posts on RR topics generate plenty of discussion. Sure, there are the usual "nice coin" responses but I think theres usually plenty of interesting discussion to go along with it as well. -Jordan Montgomery[/QUOTE]
