[QUOTE="GaryBurke, post: 49019, member: 1874"]The very first forum I ever joined, many, many years ago, was one regarding the NY Yankees baseball team. As an avid Yankee fan since about 1947 I was thrilled with the idea of exchanging information about my favorite team and players. What happened was greatly disapointing to me. The posts were mainly accusations about players' private lives, and were filled with filthy comments. When I attempted to object, my comments were met with additional filthy comments. The bottom line is that I shied away from forums for many years, thinking they were all similar. Not true. I enjoyed the now-defunct Coin World Forum, and currently really enjoy the Coin Talk Forum. So, this is a great forum, with room for everybody, and room for everybody's opinions. My opinions often times are in the minority (for example my support of the proposed Presidential Dollars program), but I am never atteacked by other forum members because of my views. Room for everybody? Certainly! :) :)[/QUOTE]
