What brought you to CoinTalk?

Quite by accident..........

While flipping thru the inter web.....this is my favorite site, I read it daily..

 

Google search for coin forums, glad I found it.

 

Stumbled across it.

One of the best stumbles I ever had.

 

I had been participating on forums in other categories for years, and finally decided I should do the same for the only hobby I've pursued almost nonstop since childhood. I spent a while "window shopping" at several coin forums and eventually settled on this one as the best.

The best of a bad lot, mind you.

 

Same here.

Unfortunately life gets in the way from time to time but I do find my way back here.

Somehow, the ancients have sucked me in though.

 

I work too much. Kids grew up and I wanted to reinvigorate my love of the hobby. Now I have to work twice as hard to pay for all the love affairs I started in the “For Sale” section.

 

I was researching the origins of the universe...Doug's name came up.

 

I 'googled' Kurt Bellman Orange Show and found this clip of Kurt beating some numismatic sense into an unfortunate newbie silver stacker (at 0:50)

 

Just look for information on different sites love the intro and coin humour

 

I had initially come here to discuss coins and the market ect something I enjoyed. But over the last several months the one sided moderation by one in particular (gets old when their political views determine their moderation) so like many others that have left I am on the verge of doing so as well and believe I will be. I’ve thought about it a few days and there’s just nothing fun here when you can’t even correct flat out wrong information without suffering personal attacks for pages and pages and then be told it’s your fault for correcting it.

 

You mean the 'Big Blah Theory'?

 

Gonna pay for that one in the morning..........

 

I was searching for the movie Grumpy Old Men......

 

Then you came to the bloody, blasted, right place........

 

And shut up, you young'uns.........live and learn. 'Grumpy' is an acquired condition. Check back with me in about 15 years.......

 

Ditto.

 

Will do.
