Membership fees to join this forum are NOT under consideration...

...all you have to do is register.   Cool


(in case you can't tell I'm getting quite a kick out of how full of themselves the PCGS management appears with their new posting rules and consideration of requiring membership to access their forum)

 Sad

Really?  I did not bother myself to read that post.  I guess I will, now.  Thanks for
the head's up.  I figured it was another rant over excess holiday wishes, or something! 

Jeez, and yessir!  Speaking of ego stuff!  Those 7-8 individuals who created PCGS seem to still be at odds with each other (in the back, back room....)  Whew! Shocked

In regards to PCGS:

The issue of permitting paying members only to access the forum, at least in this case, would be a short sighted business move. Any increased revenue would be negligible, and the resulting bad will, coupled with the loss of people that become interested in memberships via participation in their forums, would quickly result in diminishing returns.

 Wink  I agree!

Although the idea of participating in an exclusive arena, riff-raff kept out, has a sorta, kinda,
special membership appeal. I could end up the single participant....  I could always try for
another state dinner, huh?  Or, just continue to hang around here...  Who is that masked man?
