<p>[QUOTE=&quot;chrisild, post: 1893690, member: 39&quot;]In my opinion there is a difference between a basically US website and one with an &quot;international&quot; approach. If you have a place where mostly Americans discuss coins, the almost natural consequence is to make a &quot;domestic - anything else&quot; split. Elsewhere that may be done differently, but even that does not guarantee a balanced mix. Another coin site where I participate is more &quot;global by structure&quot;, but has many collectors from India. Guess what sections are the most popular ones. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Do I collect ancient Greek or ancient Roman coins? No. But would a &quot;world minus US minus such ancients&quot; meet my collection focus? No. My perfect (sub-)forum would be found interesting by hardly anybody else here. So what? The &quot;New Posts&quot; link does come in handy indeed, also because some topics that I find interesting are in the Coin Chat forum for example. The only drawback is that, if your own collecting areas are hardly ever discussed at site X, you take your posts to site Y or Z instead. But I suppose we all do that.</p><p><br /></p><p>From my experience it is pretty rare that a whole bunch of collectors come to a forum site almost at the same time. I know why it happened with the ancients folks here, and I am glad they are active Coin Talk members - also because even I find some of the &quot;ancient&quot; topics interesting, and because many of these members do not limit their participation to topics about ancients. So let&#039;s leave the setup as it is.</p><p><br /></p><p>Christian[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
