Hey guys...

Re: Hey guys...

DCGreg and Nick - I echo the other's thoughts offered here. Thank you for stepping up and agreeing to keep us within the boundaries that this great forum was created for and has allowed so many of us to make new friends, grow our personal collections (I started collecting game used college football helmets and through exposure to this forum I have added -started collected MLB bats!), and grown my personal knowledge base due to the facts and information shared by all.

Re: Hey guys...

I would suggest that anyone who wants to see a tightly run and moderated site check out Orioles Hangout. The founder (Tony Pente) and the moderators do a fine job of keeping things in check and making sure that everyone plays nice (for the most part).

Re: Hey guys...

(Never seen so much drama on a forum. I am still wondering why would one attack another on game used items?)

This is true. It is also the reason a chat/off-topic forum is a BAD IDEA. Bad blood will spill over into other topics and make for ugly posts.
There are countless forums about countless subjects. Let's keep this forum sacred. I think random sports discussion is off-topic and can be discussed on many other sites. I am guilty of innocent sports talk in the past. It's very simple: if you have anything bad to say about my favorite team, then I hate your guts. There aren't many forums about game used and game worn sports memorabilia.

Re: Hey guys...

This is all great news. It seems the moderating is now in good hands. Hopefully we'll see some old faces return.

Re: Hey guys...

I see the cleanup has already begun.

A big THANK YOU to Nick and the others that volunteered.

Re: Hey guys...

Nick, great post..I share many of the same reasons for volunteering to be a moderator. I have bought, sold, and learned a great deal from this forum and am happy to give back and help the forum eliminate the bickering and regain its focus. I am travelling through Sunday so my immediate availability is limited for the next couple days but I look forward to working with you.
