To whom it may concern
What is with the attitudes on here?? I am sure you will know if I am talking about you. Everybody is ready to blow up over anything. The first night on here some guy tried to force his opinion on me, told me "I was the rookie". I was waiting for him to tell me I had to go through some sort of rookie orientation, pink bellys and such. The reason I bring this up, is because I am a calm, joking person. I just made a comment to somebody: ""their name", you are a difficult guy to deal with on here, I say that while laughing, you never seem to have an opinion on anything. I could throw in a small bradley rc, like a bowman LMK"
And the guy threw a fit, I don't know if it was how I said it or what. I thought the "I say this while laughing" part would clear up any confusion about the context in which I wrote. I guess not. Heres his reply "oh really well heres an opinion im not interested in this trade, or any more trades with you thank you" Now I'm not perfect, I have disagreed with alot of people on here, but I always end the conversation with a "maybe we can work something out down the line". Everybody has a different opinion, but its no reason to get bent out of shape over. Thank you for a good two weeks of trading. You also know who you are. And thanks for the bears cards.

You're calling out the whole forum because of one person? Nice.

Not calling out anybody in particular, but there has been about 4-5 situations where somebody has gotten upset because I wouldnt do a trade thier way. I am a grown man and I don't see how some of the people on here can talk down to people who are new or have lesser cards. That doesn't include the entire forum, I have had numerous awesome trading experiences with new traders like myself and seasoned veterans as well. Thats why I said....and I quote....."I am sure you will know if I am talking about you".

KR580 - You just did exactly what 9nick0 was referring to! He's just trying to get a point across that we do this hobby for fun and we don't have to get all bent out of shape over trading/buying cards.

9nick0.....I see your point. The "uppityness" here seems to be at an all-time high lately. Probably just cabin fever. I find that people always seem to be "edgier" this time of year.
By the way...did you get the Bears cards from our deal?

nick: i agree w/you. being a new trader gets you looked down upon. i am tired of having trading exactly to the cent on a bv or getting chewed out because i have a card that i see bv'd one way but a more "expeienced" trader sees it another way. ok, i am not a big time dealer im just a 14 year old low on cash and working my butt off to play point guard and pitcher be prez of student council and always get a's. i look to cards as a relief but sometimes on scf only more stress is added by the more "experienced" traders ruling the day...

Not exactly my point, but I understand, I don't mind trading book value for book value, thats kinda expected, if you see a card valued one way, everybody should respect that though, they're your cards. That doesn't mean they should have to agree with you either.

Keep in mind that a lot of times things are misconstrued on the internet. Certainly some people are a bit edgy but I find the majority of the members here very accommodating.

Yeah, I just can't believe somebody would blow up like that without giving the other person a chance to clarify, I have disagreements on here all the time with members, but I am not gonna stop trading with anybody because of it. Everybody has thier own opinions from time to time, doesn't mean you have to dislike the other person, world would be a pretty dry place is everybody was always thinking the same.
