During my short visit to that page, I got the impression that the discussions were between the 'experts' at the planet, and a small group of carefully-screened people, with most of the discussions being planet people responding to their own posts;i.e-Travis starting a thread and then talking to/with himself.

So unless they create a member and plant a 'minor dissension' thread, there is really no damage of anyone arguing with their expert opinions.

As has been said frequently in the past: "It's a very small planet."

I disagree and see no reason, syntactically, why that is so. It would surely be clearer to use a definite article to refer to infighting if that were indeed what were prevalent, but it is not necessary. You can say that your interpretation is true "without doubt," but it is interpretation only and therefore open to credible doubt. In fact, the vast majority of defining relative clauses modify by proximity, which means that in a case of ambiguity, we could fall back on the interpretation that the relative pronoun "that" is modifying the noun in closest proximity, which in this case is the aforementioned "infighting." However, you are using larger contextual clues to interpret that it is modifying the earlier-occurring "problems." That's a fair interpretation, but it is far from being "without doubt," and I revel in the fact that very few things dealing with language are such.

Wayne, that is probably the clearest and best thought out reply to a post of mine that I have ever seen.

Thanks bro. Something needs to have focus in what has become a mess of a thread.

For some weird reason, even without meaningful input from 'the creator', Travis threads are often long and interesting....often for unintended reasons.

5 of the last 8 posts were Travis Roste responding to Travis Roste's discussion. 3 of the last 8 posts were Dan B responding to Travis Roste's discussion.

I don't see much room for Chris.

Does Travis respond to any direct questions to Travis' posts, or does he ignore them like he does here??

Dan B is not me...obviously. I haven't tried to sign up but I doubt I'd be approved.

It's not a surprise that Travis hasn't replied to any of our comments.

Just amazing that he (Travis) is allowed free expression over here, but his (and Nora's) website is closed to "outside" participation.

His deflection post was pretty hilarious though, wasn't it?

Mr. Williams,

What in that tread is a deflection from whatever you are referencing? I just read it and do not see any post from Travis except the first one, which contains a legitimate question.

Travis decided to exit this thread when the heat was turned up on him so he posted a new thread. This is something he claims that we do to him on a constant basis.

Dave, the thread itself was an attempt by Travis to deflect from this thread.

I do believe a few other members here saw right through it and commented on it.

while I agree with most of Travis's viewpoints...he is a complete idiot with no social skills plain and simple. Big, dumb and stupid aligning himself with Steve Kocshal & Todd Mueller, arguably the biggest slime in the business (IMHO), ...was Travis jumping the shark. He is a broken record with much to offer, but he can't derail the train that's speeding 100mph out of control. When the Mueller-church connection took place, that was the last straw and one of the funniest things any collector can witness....lying and cheating all day (not travis) then preaching the gospel. It is god damned ridiculous is what it is. It's augmentative nincompoops and cheater f'ers that have completely turned me off to collecting....and Travis is a huge part of that mix, IMHO

Everything you say is true, but it's only the "cheater f'ers" who actually piss me off, but they don't turn me off to the hobby. Many of us keep responding to Travis because we do think that because of his knowledge, he could be much more useful to the hobby, so we try to talk some sense into him. At some point he might figure out that most of us are on his side, but that we would rather hear him share information than repeat his TPA rants.

I thought the funny part was Chuck bashing someone else's social skills! I actually picture Fudd as the bad guy from Johnny Dangerously, showing physical pain as he tries not to let loose a torrent of swear words. The Fargin' Icehole!!

How could Travis possibly see your comment, Ken. He's on another "Planet."

Travis isn't on another "Planet."

He's on the "other side."

LOL I agree Ken,

it's just taken a toll on me & I really have nothing to add anymore other than to show my sincere disdain for the Church-connection and the pond scum which is Travis, IMHO
