Andy.....you are correct and incorrect. True, I do not enjoy the hobby as I once did and the reason is that there is not much of a HOBBY left!
I remember those defending all the greed and shady dealings going on now as the reasons they left their former collecting habits and joined "chipping"! Why they now defend what they were against in the past is their business not mine and I'd be afraid to ask frankly. I'd also like you to point out to me what's so "negative" about my posts made on this BB? I feel they are no more "negative" than your recent post about the Harrahs "hoops" chip last year. Is it that this issue affected you more than my issues?? I'm not here to throw stones either and yes, I consider you a long time friend from the old prodigy days too. Also, I post a note about an auction I'm running (for someone else as a favor no less) and that's pointed out to me?? I don't think I'd be in the top 10 or even top 20 who post about sales
on ebay or jackpot or anywhere else for that matter.....we BOTH know who they are. I guess there is truth to the "off-line" comments that many people do not post their opinions on subjects on this BB for fear of getting their heads chopped off.....now I'll join them and lurk!
