<p>[QUOTE=&quot;AncientJoe, post: 1774882, member: 44357&quot;]The issue of pointing to an external website is purely academic. Personally, I won&#039;t be using the websites as I receive all of their catalogs. People can visit each individual website or use the catalogs themselves - sixbid or numisbids or any number of other aggregator websites just save a few clicks and are free for everyone to use.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>It is in no way taking traffic away from CoinTalk, nor sending users to other websites maliciously. Heck, people could go to lot viewing themselves and pick up the coins to ascertain their value and make a guess; no website needed.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I look at some other contest threads with dozens of links to commercial websites (i.e. <a href="http://www.cointalk.com/threads/silver-bullion-contest.234145/" class="internalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.cointalk.com/threads/silver-bullion-contest.234145/">http://www.cointalk.com/threads/silver-bullion-contest.234145/</a> or even <a href="http://www.cointalk.com/threads/christmas-contest.219367/" class="internalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.cointalk.com/threads/christmas-contest.219367/">http://www.cointalk.com/threads/christmas-contest.219367/</a> which encourages users to go to a <i>different</i> website for their contests) and can&#039;t help but feel like there is some significant double standard being applied here.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
