It is such a contrast to the politics forum I spend time on. There it is non stop abuse, accusations, sledging and vilification. I just hope that someday I dont accidently forget which forum I an on. :blush:

That is the big difference between Numismatics and politics.
Politicians immerse themselves in BS
Numismatics immerses themselves in Facts.
Facts cannot be distorted, Politics is ALWAYS distorted.
That is why there is always mud slinging in politics because they eventually get found out about their BS in the long run.
Whereas we numismatics tend to share information freely and admire and openly look up to the people that actually know what they are talking about without vilifying the tall poppies purely to obtain their status and position.
Give me a conversation with a coin collector over a bloody Polly any day.
Diogenes is STILL haunting the halls of Parliament looking for an honest politician.
It is a rare thing indeed to come across a dishonest genuine numismatic :good:
Crikey I enjoyed that rant :diablo::dance2::biggrin:
This afternoon, for the first time, I found out what the Moderator Alert warning box looked like on this forum. In the four months this forum has been online, it was the first time someone had clicked on a "report this post to a moderator" button while I'd been online. :d_clock:
It's mostly a matter of this forum still being very small, and not very visible to the trolls, spammers and similar troublemakers. Small towns full of law-abiding citizens don't need many cops. :police_car:

I saw you hunting through the similes :laugh2: and wondered when you would reply to my thread :friends:
This site does have a small town feel to it and it is relaxing and refreshing because everyone on this site are Mates and we all enjoy helping each other out :dance2:
We are small enough to not attract the scum that sometimes infects CCF (They get dealt with pretty swiftly by the long term members and staff anyway) .
I also think the members here truly want this site to thrive and be “all it can be" and act accordingly :good:
It is fantastic that a large number of the CCF Aussies are here on this site and still enjoy and also continue to contribute,support and help on CCF.
It is a shame however that I am unable to post about ACF on the CCF site, I understand Why but I still find it an unfortunate thing

BITE ME, i reported my own post, simply to be mischievous.
I couldn't help myself. I simply did not know the option was there before:yahoo:
And much better than the other half of the last forum a few of us came from too. The coin section was OK but the other side was often full trouble. I think eventually all of us will be here for good.
OUCH! we just nudged 44 deg. just a wee bit too hot for me.
