[QUOTE="Ryro, post: 3304869, member: 91461"]I've always enjoyed your posts. And certainly I've spent good time on writing threads that have fallen flat (see my diadochi thread. I thought that thing would explode like dynamite...instead it exploded like a turd flushing down the toilet). A couple of things: Doug and TIF are spot on in regards to your posts length. As someone that also collects in some niche areas, I find that posting a little and then if the thread gains momentum posting a second or even third thought to get more (and maintain) interest does the trick to get the thoughts flowing and pictures posting. Secondly, as a fan of most of your posts and coinsI find your complaints about this board, those congratulating you on an excellent acquisition to be very off putting and reminiscent of a young boy running too fast, skinning his knee and then kicking the ground crying about it. I know, harsh. Don't talk trash on the board homie. But I hope you keep posting cool coins and education and less complaints. Cripes! The last time you complained your thread was featured later that day! An honor that many haven't had. After reading the write up I was thinking about adding this to [USER=83845]@Curtisimo[/USER]'s awesome scholarly list. I still may. Though with some resignation. If I had any coins from this area I would add them but since I don't you have my like and obligatory "nice coins".[/QUOTE]
