Card Identification Forum

Is this one in ANY set?

ENOUGH ALREADY! Take a break.

Cigars said it.....enough!! We have a search engine try using it. 

I will be the 1st to say it, UNKNOWN cards will not help you BUT just p-ss members off.

I responded to one but only because it was part of a game I used to play. Not gonna look at the rest.

I apologize....didn`t know I was in the wrong

I don't see a problem with you asking, I mean that is what the ID forum is for.  However I will suggest naming the posts something different each time.  Maybe give a little description in the title, like this one you could have wrote- "Rollie Fingers Yak Pack?"  That might not only get more people to look at it, but won't think a potential bot is on the site just upping their post count.

With all that said, I can't help you on this one, but maybe someone else can. Also I'm sure you have already tried, but using the search function first might help on some of the stuff.  Just use a variety of stuff that stands out on the card- Yak Pack, Rollie Fingers, whatever you can.  If you can't find anything to go on, then make a post. But again, title the post something different each time. :)

Or, if you have this many and can't locate them after reading the information on them, then don't use the "Mystery Card" tool, but put several within the post using the image tool. The problem was mainly monopolizing the forum page with so many that it dropped others' posts (mine included) out of site within minutes of being added.

I do agree that you should limit how many you post at a time because it does come off a bit needy, which is why I usually do 2-3 at a time if I have multiple ones.  Plus you might get a faster response on those then you can ask more.

Unless they are all the same set (which some of the cards questioned were), I'm not sure I'd post multiple scans on a single post.  I mean you can, and maybe you are right on some of the ones that are obvious promo filler cards, but isn't that the point of the ID, so you don't have to add more pictures or scans to a post?

I do feel though chiding someone that is following the rules of the site is wrong, even if them going about it isn't the most proficient or helpful.  It also could potentially alienating members from posting or asking questions in the future.  I remember a recent post someone saying they was a newer member and felt like they were getting yelled at by the veterans for doing something.  While I think the conclusion was a misunderstanding that someone was in the process of working on whatever the newer member tried to help with, it still poses a potential view that the vets are just grumpy older guys when I find that not the case in all.  Everyone wants to help the site as much as possible, so asking ID questions on cards can lead to more cards being added to the site, or discussions figuring out if certain things need to be added.

I'm rambling at this point (I really should get a sleep pattern going) so I'll stop there before it become any more incoherent.

Some of us are grumpy youngish guys. 

It's a bit of an overload here. There's so many posts, and all with the same name, that even though I'm going to try and help on them if I can, there's a good chance I will miss some because they all look the same. 

Using as detailed a description as the thread title as possible is helpful. (Good luck trying to find any of these threads using the search feature in the future). Somebody just scrolling through the post listings may know exactly what you are looking for, but won't bother to click on a thread with such a useless name, after seeing dozens with the same name.

And there were so many posted that they pushed themselves off the page. My personal rule is one Mystery thread at a time, which generally means one per day. If the mystery is solved quickly- and some have been solved in less than a half hour- I will sometimes post a second. 

As for the card in this thread, I've got nothing. Never seen it before. I would like to go Rollie Fingers style with my mustache some day, but I suspect it would be too much maintence to be enjoyable.

had no idea i was doing anything wrong.....sorry for my ignorance....Steve
