<p>[QUOTE="andrew289, post: 284140, member: 6463"]Not a surprising response. What I learned very early with this hobby is that everyone is only looking out for themselves. Sure there are plenty of knowledgable folks who are willing to offer advice and comments on forum posts. Everyone plays nice online in public but what it really come down to is whats in it for me. </p><p> </p><p>Public forums are like the ocean and some members are often wolves in sheeps clothing. They will give you the attaboys, nice pick up, and pats on the back like everyone else but in reality, they are sizing up the others. Who is a newbie that I can take advantage of?..they lay in wait until the moment comes. A moment like you described when they saw an opportunity to snag a valuable coin at a bargain basement price ...and they take it...never tipping their hand. The only problem is that online, you can't tell who your friends are. The wolves are out there ....I've been bitten myself.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
