<p>[QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 1077749, member: 112"]Paul - as I stated earlier, it's not the administrator title or the number of posts. It's because people know me and trust me. So what is that trust based on ? It's based on past experience. In all of the years that I have been on the internet I have only ever used one name - GDJMSP. And that includes all web sites, all forums of any type and all subjects. And it goes back many, many years long before Coin Talk was even thought of. I'm going back to the days of CompuServe and AOL. And for those that don't know, CompuServe was founded in 1969.
