I don't post anywhere else. I guess I just love you all too much!  Seriously though, I really like the folks on this board and don't have a whole lot of free time when my 2 year old is thrown into the equation. I would be interested in knowing some other website/forums but for now this one is enough for me! |

I am very active on-line. I belong to other forums for other interests. I even belong to a automotive forum for a type of car that I have not owned in 5 years... That being said, this is the first and only coin related forum that I have joined. I have been collecting for about 9 years. What took me so long? Thanks, Jim Also, I think this is my 50th post.  |

I actually belong to several forums and use the same name because it is my name. Never could see using a handle like back when we had CB's and every one had a handle instead of a name. I basically like this forum due to it's seriousness and yet a little comidy thrown in once in a while. Good separation in forum types also. My pet peive is with the PCGS web site where if you post a question and don't get an answer in a few minutes, that post vanishes to page 2, then 3 and on and on. With over 20,000 active members it is just to crowded to acquire information when and if you want it. I used to belong to other types of on line clubs also, car, gun, etc., but being old I get bored easily and just fade away for a while. Appears lots of well informed individuals on this site. Excluding me of course.

I do belong to other forums but have basically totally abandoned the others and only post here. I will sometimes reply to a topic on the other forums if I have time to check them to see whats going on but this is my home page so I always make sure all questions that I am able to answer with any certainty are answered first. I never post pictures of coins for anyone else's opinion unless it is about a specific VAM and no one on this forum knows which particular VAM it is and usually even then I will do all the research available to me before I will post it on the other forum |

I'm a member of several of the other coin forums, but I've found this one is always the most interesting, active and informative. Some of them are very specialised, like the Ancient coins Forum, and Xeno, I mostly just drool over the pictures, and rarely post.

When I started to get serious about collecting I figured I needed a place where I could learn a bit about what I would be doing. This was the first forum I came across. I found a few others but they didn't take. This is the only one I use and it's been very helpful!

I started at another VERY popular forum and was treated very badly and unfairly by SOME moderators and by the ADMIN PETER who disparaged me, made fun of me and LIED about me. That forum is full of right wing nut jobs.
Then another forum member invited me here and this place is great. thanks.

I also belong to a VERY popular forum, in addition to C.C.
and their are intelligent,experienced people on c.c. and the other one.
I am amazed at the depth of knowledge of the posts I read on both.
One forum however, gets more responses than the other.
I value others opinions and learn from these forums. Especially about
grading. Don't trust my own skills,others seem to grade my coins higher.

I only post on this forum. I've looked some others, but this one seems the easiest to interact on. Gotta give credit to Mom & Dad and the large number of regulars who give this forum it's personality. Learning about coins is a process and it helps to have people around who are willing to share their knowledge and experience.  |

Nope. My insanity is only contained on this forum. I guess you guys lucked out  Through, on slow periods on CC I'll take a peek at the PCGS forum and if I'm really desperate I'll stop by cointalk. |

I belong to a couple of other forums. I generally post here when I post, but I read everything that I can. When I do post elsewhere, it is always as tcekolin.
