[QUOTE="LaCointessa, post: 3447411, member: 87186"]This idea is along the lines of what I was thinking when I suggested that new CTers who wish to show us their errors or ask the value of coins they think are error coins must first successfully identify certain types of damage and types of 'doubling' before being able to begin a new thread in the error section. It could be presented as a fun challenge and they could earn some sort of badge or acknowledgement. That way, experts would know that they have attained a minimum level of ability and have showed interest in learning about identifying errors. Heck, I wonder how I would do on such a quiz! We could take it until we 'pass' it. I still come up against areas of CoinTalk where I am not allowed to respond to certain threads. That never caused me to leave CT. Maybe if we expected more of our newcomers it would help them. Just another thought.[/QUOTE]
