I do want to add one more point. If Greg has the ability to do so, as a newer member here, I think it would be eminently valuable to create a second board. One board should be completely focused on collectibles and it should have posting rules to stick to focusing on casino collectibles. The second board should be the free-for-all board where anything goes. I think this would address much of what is wrong here. From what I have been told in private emails, and I am posting an email I received without attribution because I was not given permission to post this and list the name, there long ago was much more of a focus on this board to history and edducation:
"At one time the board was quite educational; authors,
historians and educators would frequent the board daily and contribute.
Then, a few "know-it-all-bullies" started to shoot down everything they
said... and before long they never posted again."
Let's get the main board back to where good things happen, the board is focused and then we can still have the free-for-all board for us to have fun in.
