<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Tom B, post: 1810582, member: 11854&quot;]Let&#039;s be somewhat accurate here.&nbsp; Your first post described the pictures as &quot;crappy&quot; and the photos as &quot;inadequate&quot;.&nbsp; Those are <i>certainly </i> statements of <b>condemnation</b> toward the seller and his images and they were not couched as opinion.&nbsp; They were written as statements of fact.&nbsp; I responded very simply and directly that I would <i>interpret </i> the coin as having negative eye appeal and I used the word &quot;interpret&quot; because you had already disparaged the images and, therefore, called into question their accuracy.&nbsp; Therefore, my interpretation of the images was that the coin would have negative eye appeal.&nbsp; There was nothing insulting in my post; it was merely a statement of opinion &quot;I would interpret...&quot;.</p><p><br /></p><p>Your response to me was over the top and, yes, very, very rude.&nbsp; Again, I replied with a short, honest statement that you may well learn something if you read my site.&nbsp; Apparently, you not only did not go to my site to read anything, but you also jumped to the conclusion that I thought you knew nothing about this niche.&nbsp; Of course, your responses since then have not completely elaborated your issues, which appear to be myriad, but I imagine you never thought that my intent for you to read my site was to discover for yourself that I actually love toned coins.&nbsp; You were directed to my site to discover this because of the question in your post-</p><p><br /></p><p>&quot;On what planet? <b>Do you know anything about toned coins, and what people who collect toners think of rainbow toning?</b> Or is this just the typical board &quot;Knee Jerk&quot; remark?&quot;</p><p><br /></p><p>Since then, I have remained out of actively discussing this topic&nbsp; since I do not know if there is anything constructive to add to it, but have posted again to set the record straight about who said what and when.&nbsp; You are free to be insulted, perturbed, offended or whatever you like, but please have the courage to send me a PM about the issues you face in the event that they still boil over.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
