<p>[QUOTE=&quot;BNB Analytics, post: 695780, member: 20117&quot;]With all due respect, Paul, I want you to know that I hear you.</p><p>Mark, I hear you as well.</p><p>But, I have every right to mention or call out someone who I feel after repeated times, is giving me what I deem &quot;a hard time&quot;.</p><p><br /></p><p>See how you just explained your post right here? Thorough, gentle, and yet firm and informative.</p><p><br /></p><p>That&#039;s how criticisms should be worded so that the other person doesn&#039;t take offense in any way to it.</p><p><br /></p><p>I think the best quote in this situation is, &quot;The best speakers are ones who can tell someone to go to hell in a way that makes the person want to enjoy the ride&quot;.. something like that..</p><p><br /></p><p>There are so many other ways Mark could detail his consistent criticisms towards me like you just did. You know, the devil is in the details.</p><p><br /></p><p>With all this said, Mark hopefully knows I have(i don&#039;t know why i&#039;m saying this) a great level of respect for him personally from who I know him to be, However, some of his statements towards me is what I take issue with; not the person.</p><p><br /></p><p>Now, I have a question to ask you, Lehigh.</p><p>Answer me honestly..</p><p><br /></p><p>Do you think there is a general bias or favoritism on this forum towards the more senior established members?</p><p><br /></p><p>Usually on a lot of forums their is and that&#039;s fine but I just want to know if you feel that is the case.</p><p><br /></p><p>I spoke to this with a member from the forum last night.. I truly believe that the older and more years of experience dealers truly have their own clique. Anyone new or perceived wet behind the ears to them is either a) a threat or b) a victim and if I were to ever set up at a show one day(which i consider when the inventory is there), i would get harassed by the older dealers because of my age and experience level.</p><p><br /></p><p>Still doesn&#039;t mean i can&#039;t sell a good coin at a fair price with a smile.</p><p>Thanks[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
