[QUOTE="Ross_Barr, post: 323815, member: 5486"] Joe, your reference to revisionist history is unfair. In order: (1) I have been a collector for a longer time than that, but only connected to the community within the last couple of years. I didn't know much about u grading when I connected with the community, which is why I asked the question as to whether I should u grade the POP removed MOCs. The overwhelming response was that I should not U grade them, to which advice I listened and did NOT U grade them. Over the next year and a half or so I learned so much more about the harms of U grading, and now I count myself as an advocate against the practice. And I am trying to educate others as I myself was educated. Isn't that how this is supposed to work????????????????? Here's the thread on the topic: http://forum.rebelscum.com/t1103142/ You might want to read the whole thing before pointing fingers and choosing facts convenient to your agenda to cherry pick (2) As for the TT scenario, I started what I believe what was a really good discussion about the ethical ways of moving on from TT pieces. The best and most transparent disclosure. I am not ashamed of the question. In fact, it made most people think about the best way to sell these, if at all. Here's the thread on the topic: http://forum.rebelscum.com/t1105904/ You might want to read the whole thing before pointing fingers and choosing facts convenient to your agenda to cherry pick But perhaps it's your style to slant facts and try to belittle and attack people that don't believe something controversial you say such as this topic without facts to back it up.
