My Lucky 13!

[messydesk]

My pictures are never good enough to be included. Spent thousands of dollars on the full frame camera and the 200mm lens, just wasn't good enough. It's not the quality of the photo, it is who takes the photo. I was warned when I joined of the nature of the membership, that they would exlude me from their games. Silly of me to work at acceptance. Please delete ALL my photos.

Who warned you of these "games" you speak of? Do you realize that there are no restrictions on editing a page on the wiki as long as you have an account there? Have you asked anyone for specific help adding a picture to a page? Have you requested the addition of useful pictures that improve on what is already present?

It would be in error for me to add photos when I am generally unsure of the VAM, so I post to the Discussion Forum for confirmation. The member who warned me of the impending silence warned me back during VAMWorld 1.0 days, this material is no longer available to me. Another hurdle is getting a membership with Society of Silver Dollar Collectors, I was never able to log in (I believe I paid the membership twice). Many (MANY MANY MANY) people were unable to post photos in VAMWorld 1.0, I struggled with it on and off for years (YEARS!!!), when I finally managed to get a photo to upload I faced very harsh criticism, the formatting wasn't perfect for your needs.

[Flat-Chested]

There is no member present eager to upload photos belonging to anybody but the established elite. I've had enough of the group, I want ALL my photos deleted, please.

[Flat-Chested]

Perhaps by deleting my account it would make it easier for you to delete all my postings, including the photos. I would be ok with such action. Thanking you in advance.

I sure like to know the ones who were silent and told U this stuff!! We all cant be the Elite coin smart! but we can humble ourselves!!

[Flat-Chested]

It isn't easy to put together photos of any of your VAMs, most listings are sorely lacking in photos. One would think that members would be jumping at the opportunity to post offered photos in appropriate locations and so add to the quality of the listings. How is it that 1878s VAM-1G gets a rarity rating of 4 when there is only "one" graded and encapsulated? Little to no effort is being made by the members to offer accurate information about each VAM. I did all I could from time to time to offer photos for your club.

Flat Chest! They R not my Vams! Sorry u feel that way that u think nobody appreciate what u have done! Hell! Man we all R grown folks here. We all get pissed off from time to time. Just let it roll off like rain water, we will all get along!!
I have been been doing this for long time, but some folks here are experts. I get Pissy with myself because they know more then me, Why? because they have learn more then me. Not that they R smarter because of the system! They given everything to coins!!!

Flat-chested, I’m willing to bet you got some bad info. Who told you these things? Honestly, to me it seems that most of the folks that I’ve seen complain about the “elite” are actually the ones that see themselves as above the group and they get pissed because they post incorrect photos or photos that don’t have any added value for the given page. Then they would take a “my shit smells better than yours and you’re just jealous because my greatness will dim your ‘elitism’”. In other words, what you heard was crap and if you post pics here that are accurate and helpful they are ALWAYS WELCOME from anyone.

[Flat-Chested]

There was and continues to be verbal abuse, but the abuse is not the cause of the loss of the entire archive of VAMWorld 1.0.

Found this from a while ago and was wondering: can we get pictures of the variety? Would love to see what the MPD and die chips look like...

[vamsterdam]

Not sure who gave you grief or bad information. Heck, even a dinosaur like me can add photos(and i learned another new way to do it today). I am hoping that others notice that even i can post pictures and give it a try. I shot with my phone and posted with my phone so quickly. I just hope the wuality wasn’t bad.

... I just hope the wuality wasn’t bad.

No as bad as your spelling.
