"I guess we should begin correcting ourselves on all of our terminology so this message board would return to important subjects such as who has what to trade. Maybe the occasional casino news and new release updates. Which are the only real issues 99% of us are interested in." ... Rick Whaley

Rick; I, as just ONE regular reader of this message board would like to know what poll was taken to arrive at the statistic of 99% you have posted? I believe that this message board was established for the benefit of those who wish to use it for discussions and opinions and news-worthy items that are related to the silver strike hobby..... including trading.

If some folks do not like some of the topics that have been posted for discussion by others, or who do not wish to read posts made by certain individuals, it is my personal view that those posts are easily skipped over with the click of a mouse. Why should your views set the standard of appropriateness of "important subjects" for those who might disagree with you ... and would deny those who use this board for purposes other than trading?

On the other hand; if a poll were to be conducted by the Chapter, or if a discussion ensued at the annual convention meeting in Las Vegas, I would certainly abide by that decision.... keeping in mind that the Chapter to the best of my knowledge does not pay anything for the use of this message board, and that its use has been provided for by Greg Susong. I would think that he would have final say of the use of this public forum.

I'm just asking the question in response to your post; no offense is intended.
