Cat Wants 2x2 Clear Flips.

Thanks, Meow was seriously offended and was considering leaving. Meow thought this place was all about getting together and discussing a hobby we all love. Who knew that even coin forums had people who gain from putting down others.

Meow,
I've felt insulted in a few threads, a year or so ago when I was still starting to feel my way around the board. Some of that was instigated by me, sometimes it was (or was not) intentioned to have the impact it did. I learned to bite my tongue on certain topics and stay focused on why we're here. Things are much better now.

We all have idiosyncrasies. Sometimes they're easier to overlook than others. Just like I have set aside my personal opinions of those few who rubbed me the wrong way in the past (and these are posters who have earned some respect around here), I hope that others can see how sincere Meow is with the hobby and pay more attention to that.

Meow, if I had left when I felt as bad as I did, I would have limited my learning and lost a valuable resource for the sorts of things that you're asking now and will ask later as you get farther into the hobby. I think it's good to recognize that some of us don't necessarily feel so supportive. Third-cat might be a bit much at times, but I think it's refreshing to have a new personality here, and one who genuinely wants to stay.

Edit to add, on seeing Bobby's follow-up: That's sad to hear. I'd understand one or two such requests; "many" is disappointing. I've said all I can, now.

That is the most important concern.

I will not personally speak of myself in the third person perspective, but really, when reading Meow's posts, it is simple to mentally insert the grammatically correct pronouns if you wish. Other than that, it's about username, and as I pointed out previously, one can make it whatever they wish. That is why I'm not "Squinty."




I took a test a bit back, and my result was the same.




I haven't seen the comments that made you feel inferior. I am a low budget collector, so there is nothing I will be dangling over everyone's collective head. Choose the holder that you find appropriate for the coin. My only concern would be if it is 100% coin safe. Beyond that, it is your choice.

So in other words, "Your collection is too cheap for nice holders", says one. And the other says "I agree".

In all seriousness, Meow is at this moment putting 1970s UNC dimes in nice holders. Is some one here going to call the police on Meow? The charge will be putting cheap coins in too nice of a holder in the first degree.

1970 d Gem BU that is good enough for Cats

Just to clarify, my request for an ignore function predates Meow and is directed at ignoring others.

OK, sigh........Tell ya what, if one person would say you don't want Meow here; Meow will delete all posts and leave. You want Meow gone? Just one person reply here to say so and Meow will be gone. That's a promise.

Meow should of kept Meow's desire to collect coins to Meowself.
