1st Prize

[SkyPirate]

For the most "What is it" posts in a 30 day period I would like to honor TN member Garabaldi with this trophy! Speech! Speech!

Note:this post is not meant as any kind of harassment. It's all in good clean fun.

Garabaldi:
"I am speachless. I don't know what to say. What an honor and one heck of a sweet trophy. This has been a total surprise. I first want to thank my first grade teacher, then my Whites M6 detector, my girl who has much tolerance and patience for me detecting long hours, my parole officer for sticking with me all these years and not loosing faith, my fellow treasure net members who have the passion for research all those hours to ID my 8oo and something post under What Is It while I am detecting, and last but not least, Skypirate. Without him this would have never happened. I have to go because I have a few things I have to post on WHat Is It."

he's got MY vote.. I just mentioned this in another of his posts.

His reply: "I have a 'whatsit' store nearby"
:-)

I THOROUGHLY enjoy "what is it?" And HE keeps it going sometimes..

Second place I look after I log on is the WII to see what he needs help with!

Damn, I think you just ID'ed what a "Garabaldi" is.

At least he is now a Chartered Member, unlike some free-loaders on here!

Like some of the other members stated, not alll of us are working right now, times are tough. When we start working again we will become charter members but now we must tighten our belts and scrape by the best we can.

I think we should be paid to put up with the likes of you!

Can you say... Banner favors.

This post is to honor Garabaldi, take your fight somewhere else please.

That's more of a speech than $25 deserves.

Now as far as us 'freeloaders' are concerned . . ..for the amount of time and effort I (and others) spend on helping to ID under WWI, I think it all balances out in the end. I enjoy it! Also, if the problem is $$$ vs. Bandwidth, the forum could limit the size of photos. Some are so huge, the object can't even been seen, thus taking up a lot of unnecessary bandwidth space. Breezie

I couldn't agree more!!! I think I will write a simple to follow tutorial on photo manipulation and editing. As much as I love this site, there's not enough emphasis put on photo re-sizing.

@ Garabaldi...Congrats! Much deserved! Ok, gotta run, Time to see what he posted today,

 

[Ramitt]

I bet he'll be overjoyed, something to keep all his what it's in.

He may need someplace a bit larger to hold them all.

 

[Garabaldi]

Ramit, how did you get a picture of my basement?

If you want to get serious about all this, then don't post in a 'What Is It' when you have nothing to ID (try reading the form rules). Me & IP are having a laugh (we have an understanding) & not fighting at all, if your trying to kill our buzz or control us in any way because you think you have the right as the starter of the post, then you are mistaken. Look I can do angry faces as well, funny its the first time I have used them since I joined years ago

Next time spent long enough on here to tell the difference, between a real fight & those that know each other for years. I will continue to have a laugh, its in my nature, no-one will change that in me, so good luck.

I like checking out the "what is it' section, it lets me kick in my 2 cents worth and at the same time
it informs me about things that I don't know what it is but I may come across it in my diggings
keep'em comin

I believe we have one somewhere. When a picture is resized, the old ones should be deleted. I found something tucked away in Just Images. http://forum.treasurenet.com/index.php/topic,35706.msg244823.html#new

 

[CRUSADER]

It has been brought to my attention that some may have been offended by the statement (lighthearted joke) directed at IP ("unlike some free-loaders on here!").

In hindsight I should have said Free-Loader without the 'S' as it was purely directed at IP.

If you want to use this site for nothing (other than ISP charges), then thats your right. I always treat people on here as equals, whether members or not. I spend many hours IDing & looking through books for people I have never met.

If I can't have a laugh with a friend on here, it should be me considering whether to pay or not.

ENOUGH SAID.

We with humour will continue our happy lives

 

[Bigcypresshunter]

I wasnt offended in case you are wondering. ...and I knew you where joking with IP.
This is the first time I have seen you get angry Cru. See, it can happen to the best of us.

I was, but then I REALLY need to get out more!
