Are you allowed to post a topic thats considered to be a joke to try and get laughter flowing, because although coins are phenominal, Laughter is also of key essance you know.

We have specific reasons for not letting just anyone into the Buy/Sell sections - in fact, we're going to make the qualifications even more stringent in the near future - and although I'm not accusing you personally, Tim, you're doing precisely the thing that the people we don't want there do. |

Non-Moderator post: The humor here is kinda like joking around with a loaded gun - some people just won't ever see it as funny.

Quality as opposed to quantity.. yikes, if anyone ever really looked at mine, I might be down to what, 30? 40?  |

I remembered I wanted to get to 50 posts so I could BUY. The best way is to 1. Welcome the new folks to the board. 2. Ask good questions, ie. cleaning, storing, etc... 3. Ask about photography, which I still can't do at all, they always reflect the flash back to me 4. Post an occasional off coin topic for fun 5. Congratulate folks when they post they reached a milestone.

My recommendations:
1) Ask questions about coin-related topics that you've wondered about, but never had anyone to ask before.
2) Answer other members questions.
Relax, take your time, and don't post just to post. You'll be at 50 before you know it. There will still be plenty of coins to buy and sell, contests to enter, etc.

50 quality posts is not too much to ask. Why not spend just 2 weeks (which you have to be a member atleast 14 days to Buy/Sell/Trade)sharing your knowledge of coins with fellow members or learning from other members by asking questions about your coins or ones you would like to know about. The post count is there to keep people from just trying to "take" from the community without giving back. Believe me I was there not long ago, remember time flies (as well as posts) when you are having fun!  |

maybe the buy sell trade should be "invisible" until the person reaches 50 post/ 2 weeks

My apologies, everyone, I guess some jokes just need to be unposted, however I hope you all understand that I was certainly not posting that just to up my counter one post, I was simply bored and didn't really have anything else to post. I hope you can forgive me, and know that I'm an honest member, and I guess it would be safe to say still an amature coin collector lol.

Tim, it's great to have you here. There are many topics here to navigate and many great coin collectors contributing to this great Forum. I stumbled across it by accident and am glad I did. As you will come to find out, it's extremely addictive swcoin.ecrater.com

This is a good suggestion. Hard to covet what you can't see. |
