david Chamberlain Posted August 21, 2009 Report Share Posted August 21, 2009 Whenever I see 'IMHO' I immediately look over my shoulder because I just know know someone is gaining on me and their opinion is anything but humble. This 'IMHO' is being used to distraction, IMHO ..........David Chamberlain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sissydear Posted August 22, 2009 Report Share Posted August 22, 2009 I wish everyone would stop saying IMHO. It reminds me of ugly confrontations on the chat boards. I never use it. My opinion is just that... my opinion. It really sounds insincere anyway. Edna Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
feelnmarbleous Posted August 22, 2009 Report Share Posted August 22, 2009 I'm sorry but i don't see this is relevant to marbles at all, there is already negativity starting in this thread... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

david Chamberlain Posted August 23, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2009 As for relevance I believe you will find that IMHO is used in just about every other Post on the marble boards when opinions are expressed and some use it as a regular mantra. One begins to think that maybe it means a lot more than just IMHO. David Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LouisCamp Posted August 23, 2009 Report Share Posted August 23, 2009 I can make a filter that won't accept IMHO. Everyone needs a chill pill. I hear Rick has some. Lou Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zaboo Posted August 23, 2009 Report Share Posted August 23, 2009 i think INHO is used as a courtesy, so as not to hurt anyones feelings... am I right? kinda interesting no one thought of that.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Akro gatherer Posted August 23, 2009 Report Share Posted August 23, 2009 zaboo is exactly right. because without saying it you might sound like you know then get attacked by others who know you are wrong. so by saying IMHO you are making sure all know you are just giving an opinion.

Pretty much what Brian & Dani said, it is short and sweet, instead of typing out something like "Well i think" or some thing of that nature it's easier to say IMHO rather than typing in my own humble opinion, abbreviate it, just like all the IE slang, LOL - LMAO - AFK - GTG - BBL .ect .ect And god forbid you don't share your thoughts as an opinion, we have been down that road before, it was a dead end that leads to personal attacks and arguments, IMHO simply keeps it at DEBATE status rather than Argue status....

bigjohn691500 Posted August 23, 2009 Report Share Posted August 23, 2009 you got it zaboo,,, i always have an opinion because quite frankly i dont know it all and God forbid that ide ever claim it,i learn something new everyday,, case in point the newest morphys auction end prices IMHO i think theres a bunch of money out there and folks are willing to spend it at morphys , lolololol, good way to turn the thread huh?,, lololol,, bj GREAT PRICES crazy IMHO but great Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
feelnmarbleous Posted August 23, 2009 Report Share Posted August 23, 2009 Bj, i agree bro, some of the stuff that sells at Morphys is CRAZY !! they sold an Onion Skin a few years ago that went for something like 13'000$ maybe even higher, i know it had a 3 and bunch of zero's... Isn't this a Pelt ? CAC PELT K&M Also what gets me at the morphy auctions is the Estimated Price they give for a marble, then what it actually sells for, some times they are WAY OFF IMHO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigjohn691500 Posted August 23, 2009 Report Share Posted August 23, 2009 i believe your right,,, also i love their magnifyer,,, how'de they do that, that is so cool in fact that "turkeyswirl" graded 9.7 isnt 9.7 mint?,,, jeepers, still shaking my head, maybe jelous because a few month ago i had a great selection of slags i had for a buy it now i thought was resonable and got ridiculed for it, lololol, gosh or shucky darns on me for thinking like that,,,,IMHO murphys rules Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sissydear Posted August 23, 2009 Report Share Posted August 23, 2009 Not to beat a dead horse, but you will never see me write IMHO. If it's an opinion I'll write "I think" or "it might be", but never "IMHO". I do feel that we all express our opinions and no need to flag everything we say with that. Edna Sorry if I offend anyone with that opinion. LOL I do use "LOL" a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

david Chamberlain Posted August 24, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 24, 2009 Amazing! I think there has been a total avoidance of how I concluded the initial Post to this thread. But really, and call it brazen confidence if you will, I never see the need for its use; you just step up to the plate and take your swings and you hit or miss.
