Very sad day. Dave was a huge asset to the team here at NGC, both professionally and personally. He will be greatly missed by those of us who had the privilege to work beside him for so many years.

The question of the week: How do I put another user on ignore? The answer: Click on your username in the upper right corner of the screen to open a menu where you can select 'Ignored Users'. That page will allow you to add as many users as you like. This will not prevent you from seeing an ignored user's post if someone quotes them so you'll have to make an effort to ignore those if you truly do not want to communicate with that person.

Good morning, The NGC Chat Board will be offline today at 10am ET for maintenance. We expect this maintenance period to last no more than one hour. We apologize for this inconvenience.

Reminder: If a thread doesn't interest you, don't post in it. This trend of running off members who don't share your interests is not acceptable.

Congratulations to you and all the winners! It is our pleasure to provide the platform and we are grateful that you choose to share your collections with us and the collecting community. Well done.

Well deserved indeed

You are most welcome! We are hoping things get back to normal at some point soon.

So nice to have you back. Fingers crossed and prayers on the way

Beautiful family you have there.

Moderation has never gotten in the way of rigorous discussion here no matter what opinions are being expressed. Be respectful of one another and mind the guidelines you agreed to when you joined and there will be no need for moderation. You may want to argue about some of the guidelines but they have developed over time and are in place for reason. The bottom line is that your first amendment rights do not apply here. If there are topics in the guidelines that are off limits then they are off limits. Moderation understands that things are not black and white. So much so that we recognize those who continue to post in the gray and feign innocence when it is brought to their attention. To those I say - cut it out.

...is working now. It may be found in the upper right hand corner of each post. Please use that feature if you see a post that is inappropriate for these boards and a moderator will be notified.

Sorry for the late response. I couldn't say without doing some serious digging. I don't have access to the old boards so I would have to search for historical metrics.

A reminder seems to be in order. If you can't play nice, you can't play here. In the past we have spent time going through threads to remove the hostile posts that ruin a perfectly good topic. Going forward we will just delete entire threads. This doesn't mean that you'll be able to derail someone else's thread to get it shut down. This means that anything you've posted, good or bad will be removed. If you can't leave your personal hostilities at the door, you can't post here.

Looks like that post was already in the newbie section but it was not pinned. It is pinned now and you should be able to edit it. Let me know if you have any trouble with that. The permission configurations are a little tricky in this software so I am not always sure if changes will have the desired outcome.
