Title: How's this for pretty quick?
Post by: Nevol on May 06, 2013, 05:11:00 PM
Our second last member to join, Aussiek8, applied today at 12.36pm, was approved at 13:06pm and her first post was at 13:32.  PDQ I reckon. Well done k8. :yahoo:

That is quick. Much better than some other forums.
But, what else would you expect from coin collectors?

Well done moderators. Give yourselves a pat on the back.

I was giving kudos to Aussiek8.  Many of our members have been here since day 1 or day 2 and still haven't posted. :angel:

AussieK8 is another crossover from a Facebook forum with over 340 members.Not so many informed people over there as there is here so I would say a lot of the facebook people will be over here very soon

She was obviously itching to find out about NZ $1 errors on single coin. And a good find too!

Congratulations to all concerned.

I can't see it.  What's the name of the forum?  There was one on there that I got banned from because I contradicted what the forum admin said about what a gold coin was worth.  He was clearly angling to buy it at well under market value and didn't appreciate someone being honest.

Yeah, that's it.  The admin was buttering someone up to buy a $200 gold coin for $100 under spot gold price.

Jeez, I just went to that group and found a friend of mine in it. Had no idea she had an interest, but will have to delve more now of course.

So Failbook hasn't died yet, eh? Only a matter of time... ;)

I just temporarily reactivated my FB A/C, but to see the Australian Coin,Banknote,Numismatic,Gold Silver Buy Forum, I'd have to join it and don't wish to do that so I've deactivated it again.
