I admit I am new to this site, although I have submitted many cards and a few complete sets, just to find that they "start from square one" after 1 week. I may be expecting too much here, as I have not "upgraded" with a "subscription", I just am disenchanted and believe I will be moving on. Thank you everyone for the awesome idea, this is one of the best database sites available I have found, although I feel that a lot of the contributions and contributors go uncommended. The adminstrators are awesome and deserve praise for the time and effort they put into this site, as well as respect for the success of this site, I am just disillusioned and need to take a step back for another perspective. So I say to all "Rest easy, Sleep well, and Angels on your pillows".

Hi Jay. Don't give up so easily. Perhaps the community can help. Can you be more specific? What do you mean you had to start from square one?

Jay, I too am confused by what you mean by "Start from square one". Can you explain a little further so we can help you on your journey here?

Gents, thank you for starting the thread of asking what Jay means above.  I read this and didn't really understand either.

Talk to us Jay!!!

One week here can't possibly have made you mad about what this site offers. And subscriptions do not matter here! You don't need to pay money here to enjoy this site. If you leave here, you'll be much more disappointed with any other sites you find out there. None of them beat TCDB! And that's coming from a still-current Beckett member and former member of other sites. TCDB is the best card site on the planet.

Kinda getting the impression that he might be a Zistle member who might have lost all his collection information and has to “start from square 1” here...   just my hunch 

Jay, Don't keep us in suspense, spill the beans, PLEASE tell us your problem here. We are here to help....but we can't enter your cards for you. LOL.

First off, I want to apologize for my "venting" as I am new to the site and was letting my frustrations getting the better of me. I had spent the last week (my first week here) scanning, submitting, and cropping mine and others' submissions. I believe there was a site update performed sometime yesterday evening, and noticed very few of my submissions were posted. If I had read or asked, I would have been aware that if you crop your own submisions for postng, and another member does not it reverts to "needs cropping" after the site update and posting. I am still learning the "ins and outs" of this awesome site and ask for your understanding during my time of being "educated". I take away from this, the awareness of all the members that that are very eager to help in any way they can and "the only 'stupid' question is the one that is never asked". Thank You all very much for your concern and hopefully your understading.

You should get high level on Permissions, that will help.

And beleive me, we welcome the help of someone who has experience and wants to learn this site.  Others have come from elsewhere and, after they got the knack of this site, they stay long term.  I think the duration of some of the most active members says alot for TCDB.

But yes, it takes time to start over again on a new site.  That is why we hope the faith of others never, ever befalls on TCDB.
