On one hand I fully understand what you & they are saying. Plus this is a hobby & most people have a hobby to break away from whatever stress they might have in their life. On the other hand I am really tired of hearing they don't feel like this is always a friendly environment. By letting the occasional argument keep you from posting or letting it drive you off of the board makes you the loser in the long run. You are just missing out on all of the GREAT parts of The Chip Board.

I CHALLENGE any member who is lurking to reply to this post & tell us a little bit about themselves & what they collect. NOT NEW members, but those who have been a member for at LEAST a year. Make your first post as a reply to this & I will GIVE the first FOUR posters the uncirculated $10 Hacienda Blackjack Tournament chip below.

Go ahead...give the board a chance & you might end up enjoying it by posting & not just lurking.

If you post I'll need your first & last name in your post. No initials for the last name and you must be a member and include your number in your post. PLUS have been a member for at least a year & this is your FIRST post.

Steve Bedo will be the one & only judge as to if a member who makes a post has been a member for at least a year. And if this is their first post here. The offer ends once I we have four posts or at MIDNIGHT March 31st.
