To All Who Responded, I am just bowled over by the support for my postings. I couldn't believe the postings and then when I looked at my Email I about sh*t. HOLY COW!!

I don't feel revealing the names of the two that Emailed me would serve any purpose. I know who they are and they know who they are. Let's just leave it at that and move on.

My decision to bail was based on the tone of the messages. They were both made to sound like they represented the collective consensus of a number of people and they were just doing the dirty work. I did not want to continue if such a large number of people were growing weary of my posts. I certainly did not want to become another "Burt B.." To quote from one of the messages, "We had another unwanted person on the BB awhile back, you saw what we did to him. You are going to end up in the same boat with the useless drivel you are posting."

Well, Burt was posting chips and being rude and obnoxious, he probably needed dismissed for his behavior. I am just trying to have some fun sharing some great gaming collectibles. And I admit hoping to drum up some more contributions for the ashtray site in the process.

I have had contact with lots of chippers since this project began and I am honored to have come in contact with such a great bunch of people. The sharing has been amazing, not to mention making some great friendships.

I am sorry for over reacting, but I was just shocked to learn that I really wasn't wanted when I have had so much communication with the chip community and it was all so positive.

Ok, Enough's Enough....Thank you all it means alot...Oh by the way here's another Great Tray.

Thank you,

Mark & Lynn Englebretson
