<p>[QUOTE="Morgandude11, post: 7502540, member: 37839"]I agree with Eddie. There is a fine line between educating newbies, who sincerely want to become collectors, and the “I found this 1999 Penny in my driveway, after I ran over it with my car. Is it worth $100,000, and can I retire from the proceeds” posts. Sincere collectors, who ask genuinely motivated questions, and desire gaining expertise should, by all means, to be encouraged. That is the heart and soul of the hobby. However, the multiple spam posts that have been occurring recently are annoying as heck. We had that woman post 10 new threads a few weeks ago, and each one ended up as a massive argument, when she did not like the advice of multiple experts. So, let us use good judgment—encourage the sincere new collectors who legitimately want to enjoy, and join the hobby. We were all there once. However, the “hit and run” garbage posters should not be encouraged, as they waste our time, that could be better used, building our community stronger, and more as a family.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
