<p>[QUOTE=&quot;RaceBannon, post: 1287701, member: 25357&quot;]Regardless of your grammar and punctuation, you make a very valid point Ricky. I&#039;ve often noticed how harsh we are as a community to newbies. There are many first timers on this forum whose questions may seem elementary to the advanced collector, but they&#039;re really just seeking knowlege about this great hobby. Sometimes I wince at the tone of the responses certain individuals give these newcomers. But we owe them some measure of respect, and usually, unless the post is rude or offensive, also the benefit of the doubt. In the spirit Peter intended when he conceived this forum, we should always be respectful and generous with our knowlege, it helps the hobby writ large and presents a better image of coin collectors as a whole.</p><p><br /></p><p>I think perhaps we can all learn something from this nine year old.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
