Site Forum

Only Admin can "banish" you.

I was simply mentioning all the various gripes you've aired over the last year about the site, and suggesting that, since you're the only one with this many gripes about the site, that maybe this isn't the site for you. It doesn't seem to fit your style or what you have in your collection. You'd be much better served by creating your own site.

And I'm calling absolute BS on your claim that "ADMIN, I have all of the utmost respect for the leader" - the original message in this thread was you bashing the site (Admin) for taking away your points for the scans that are no longer posted to the site. So, your gripe there is solely with Admin and his policy. So right there your "defense" of what I said is out and out BS.

Go cry somewhere else.

I was just saying that any correspondence I've had with ADMIN has been very cordial. Most messages, suggestions, ideas have been met with respectful replies.

I'm not sure why you think the TCDb is not for me, Oh contrare. The "gripes" are not the SITE, it's some members and underlings that cause a certain amount of discontent and like pushing buttons., not ADMIN...not the site. In any organizations that I have been a member, the FORUM has been the way to "air it out" with always positive resolutions. L8s and members here have all sorts of insecurities and problems not using  it  as it should be intented. Just my opinion.

Dan, you said, "doesn't fit my style", but that's not true. It has taken over 5 years to TEST the site in everyway possible. I've have finally been able to match the site across all barriers. Collections added, cards and sets added and subtracted, trades [successful and unsuccessful].....I've reached the CL stage, and scan stage.....and just getting the guidelines down. I've have so much to add, 4.5 rooms worth. 

I'm sorry you think that the TCBd is out-of-my-league, Why 4.5 rooms? I'm sure there are bigger collectors on here than me. Given a fighten chance, my physical collection, my Google Drive Records and the TCDb will mesh!

And as I always seem to end.....sorry everybody...just me....~bob~

And stop slinging BS around.....

Bob, the problem is that when your query is answered (and yes all queries are accepted here), if you don't like the answer, you keep bringing it back up with every new post more heated than the last.  People get tired of that.

For this particular OP, the question was answered correctly by at least 3 or 4 members.  The answer was not to your satisfaction so you kept at it to the point some were hoping that the next answer would make it go away but with no such luck.

I have had queries that the answer was not what I hoped for but I respect the site and move on.  I am sure many others have had the same. But you never move on.  That's where the problem lies.

Bob, Admin took your points away . Not Dan. Not L8s. Not me.  Not the card burner.  Not the guy who made the Michael Jordan Frankencard.  Admin did it.  You asked why on the forums. You got answers. You didn't like the answers. But the people who answered your questions didn't take your points away.  They just understand how the system works. Admin did it.

Bob,

This is how every thread you start goes:

1. You: here's what I want to do. How do I do it?
2. Several members: Answer your questions as best as they can
3. You: I don't like that. I'm gonna do it this way instead
4. Members: Please don't, that's against the rules. Please do it the way we suggested
5. You: That's not fair! Where does it say that? These rules are stupid and you're all picking on me! More general insults!
6. Members: 

You ignored multiple people offering their help with your request in this thread and did it the wrong way. Doing it the wrong way makes the database worse, so that work got removed, and you no longer get the points for those scans. The scans were (probably) fine, but your checklists weren't, so everything had to go. Does that make sense? It does to me, and seemingly pretty much every other member since we all have to follow the rules. If it doesn't, logically the problem lies with you, and you should stop acting like a victim.

You're the only one starting multiple threads every day and complaining about stuff like this, so the only one with insecurities is you. Nobody's telling you you're a bad collector or that your cards don't belong here--they're telling you to stop complaining and follow the same guidelines we all do or go make your own site with your own rules. Take the constructive criticism and do better or stop wasting everyone's time.

I love the references to people only members here would know...Makes me feel part of something haha.  

Step 1) Bob wants something

Step 2) Bob gets an explanation of why that's not how tcdb works.

Step 3) Bob pitches a fit

Step 4) Bob gets lots of reactions

Step 5) Bob asks for help

Step 6) People answer and try to help

Step 7) Bob ignores the responses he doesn't like

Return to step 2 and repeat.

Bingo.

Can't believe a thread about 20 or so removed useless points has four pages of responses.

Fix the checklist, reload the scans, get the points back. Yikes. 

Keep replying and and the thread continues.

I basicly could have stopped on page 1, ....rules, rules and more rules.

Change is good, some rules in life need a change, some things in life need a change, who ever thought we'd be tearing down statues of historical icons.

I mean, if I don't understand what you guys are trying to tell me, and it takes a little longer, and you get pissed off, then I have to do it the way I understand it. Got a better solution?

"Keep replying and and the thread continues." So whenever you request help, we'll stop replying (except for those who are not yet tired of your inability to follow helpful instructions).
