WilliamH · Feb 20, 2013

Better than me. I haven't even touched a roll this year. Had a baby on the 9th of jan. and been way to busy.

Thank you. But yes I will get some coins here in the near future.

WilliamH · Mar 20, 2013

Well I got my first box of halves and got skunked. Maybe I will have better luck with 2 boxes of dimes. Good luck to all

I think its been rough for all of us. But by the grace of God we are persevering!

A lot less here too. I'm too lazy to be hitting the dimes like I used to. Besides that, I'm having fun buying small silver collections and accumulating so much more than I could by roll hunting alone.

Why revive this older thread?

Why revive a 5 day old thread to ask why revive an old thread?

I don't see a problem with 5 day old threads. But a month old, I would not revive unless there is good reason.

GlenDronach · Mar 26, 2013

Is that the TOS?

BuffaloBoy · Mar 26, 2013

Come on now Sagittarius, please don't jump on people for reviving older threads, it's a privately owned forum by TNET, They have no rules against bumping old threads...

I don't have problems with reviving a month old thread; I've been out of the country for longer than that, and would need time to catch up. Six months or a year is excessive IMO.

New Members should be restrained from bringing up topics that are six years old.....

I disagree. If something constructive is to be said, than it could be beneficial. All of us were New Members at one time, and you can see who some of us became, veterans, or just people with great advice. Also, you don't suddenly change after having 10 posts, so it really wouldn't have to just be New Members, but also Tenderfoots, which restricts the freedom of posting here on Tnet.

This is so hypricritical :coffee2:

I was LOLing when I saw that in the other bumped thread. I made sure to quote it for posterity.

sagittarius98 · Mar 29, 2013

I was trying to say that new members shouldn't be banned from reviving threads, since it may serve a purpose. However, many times it is pointless.

After all, when do you say that a member is no longer "new?" 50 posts, 100 posts?
