Look, kids, we are a group who specializes in sharing knowledge. We LOVE to do so.
SO, ask any and all questions, as no one will say you are stupid.
And, if any one does, well, the moderators will nab them!
Learning about coins is a life-long process, not to be accomplished in a few days. Or even a few years. It never ends.
Remember, you may have knowledge that we all do not.
And it is in the sharing that we all learn more and more.
End of rant.
Except to say, "CCF RULES!"

Unless you're from New York or New Jersey, in which case the established procedure is to ask permission to ask a question:
"Hey, pal, lemme ask ya somethin'..."

My question is, is it smart to buy coins from a guy standing on a corner saying "Ppsssssst, hey buddy, what to buy some coins? Watches?"
Only funny if you grew up in a place called Maxwell Street in Chicago.

Nothing to rant about as far as I can see and it's nice to see that younger members (if they are all young) are polite (and respectful) enough to start with.

I am afraid to comment here because I feel I might be ridiculed.
LOL
I totally agree.. if you cant ask a stupid question here on the internet, then where can you?

i have an account on a photography site and all people do is just tell you how bad your photos are when youre looking for ways to improve, if anyone does post anything good up no one says a thing because theres nothing bad to say

I've asked my share of stupid questions here. Thanks to those who've (patiently) answered them.

Ok, OK! I've had enough.
Substitute the word "stupid" with the word "common."
Now, you might ask,
"I have a question, perhaps common, but I need to learn."
BINGO! The members respond. With quick explanations and/or links to more detailed answers.
There is never any shame in asking a question.
Only in being too fearful to ask.

The lady states that you can't put things on the internet that are not true. The guy says where did you hear that and she says, on the internet. My point is many such web sites are full of people that have nothing to do. Many are full of kids playing around. Many are full of possible mentally disturbed or someone just short of a few marbles. Your photos may well be so much better than the others on that web site, they want to run you down to their level. Or your just a losy photographer.  Kidding of course. Why not take some photos of coins and post them here on this fourm. Memebers here will actually either say great photos or try to help you make better ones. For some odd reason, most members here are rather on the more adult side of life. |
