Coinfrog... My mother always told me "If you cant say anything nice, Don't say anything at all"
You would be wise to take her advice.

Coin frog has an opinion/position that's valid against a different paradigm. Nothing wrong with that at all. If something doesn't fit the paradigm we follow we tend to be confused; things aren't fitting expectations as expected. For instance, I see folks pour through boxes of coins in a matter of hours. It's days for me. But the paradigm is different; I variety hunt. So it 'confuses' me why folks are willing to skip over nice finds (and usually more lucrative). But to each their own. It's fine to point out differences in paradigms; some paradigm shifts are usually inevitable. But be mindful of another's paradigm and try to be accepting of differences. And if a person doesn't adopt your paradigm it's ok. If folks are happy doing what they are doing we should be happy that they are happy.
Happy hunting folks!

CRH is more about the challenge of filling a book with out paying more than face value for any coin in it.

To each their own. I enjoy CRH, but I've also expanded to enjoy junk bin searching at LCS and also instead of filling folders through CRH, I've started albums of sets that can only be fillled though purchases.
I like to think of CRH as buying lotto tickets, but worst case you get a full refund and more than instant satisfaction

Nice finds!  Keep in mind, CRH is better than gambling (you cannot lose, only win) and will always be more productive than dealing with psychics and other scam artists (you always lose).  |

Jbuck, technically you can lose because the gas you pay to go to the bank+time spent which can be used to work at a job at $7.25 an hour(At least for U.S.A). Still CRH is really fun and I love the thrill of it.

I cant lose.  I know what to look for, and it costs me nothing. I legally can't have a job, and I walk to the bank. |

I love everything about CRHing, down to the dirty fingers & that funny smell! I tend to average 1 wheatie per 3-4 rolls (12-16 per box).
Just lucky I guess.

Why do you do this? It has been explained to you in the thread you created and asked this question as well as every other thread you ask in. https://goccf.com/t/240415Quote:
Coin frog has an opinion/position that's valid against a different paradigm. Nothing wrong with that at all. No, but he/she keeps asking int he "Coin Roll Hunting" forum the same thing which is getting to the point of absurdity and pretty much trolling every coin roll hunter by trying to say "You're doing it wrong!" It is getting kind of annoying actually, like PETA throwing paint on someone wearing fake fur. It is like they want people to stop roll hunting as the mission for being in this section of the forums?

The aim of my post (the quote from the other thread) was to remind folks that there are two sides to every coin and that while we may not agree with the other side, we should be tolerant and respectful. It does get increasingly harder to show 'passive indifference' when seemingly some members would rather keep forcing their paradigm as the only paradigm. I think you've shown reasonable restraint, so I can't fault you on your tactics. Hopefully your approach will yield a better result than mine!

You mean you don't identify CRH as a profession and take a tax write off for all expenses related thereto, including for your home office used to CRH, the microscope, magnifying glass, and lights for variety identification, your computer and ISP cost for variety identification and research, and appropriate deductions for use of your car to travel to myriad banks for getting and dumping coins?
Yeah, me neither. I need a better accountant.
