Pak Ganja,I really do not think we can call your actions in posting photos of your collection controversial.

I made a remark which referred only to my own standards, not to anybody else's standards, and I provided an explanation of my reasons for those standards when I was asked.

No controversy. No shock-horror!

I choose not to display my personal possessions, including keris; you and other people choose to display your keris.

As I have already remarked, perhaps I am the one who is out of step.

We all bear the burden of our own actions.

I'm sure we will all be most happy to continue to look at whatever you, and others care to make available for our viewing, and I, for one thank you for your generosity.

It seems to me that this warung thrives because people share. Some share their keris (or photos at least), some share their knowledge, some share their experiences and some (like me) share their questions . Many share combinations of these things. As long as people share something it is a very successful coffee house (you bring the biscuits, I will bring the sugar and they can bring the coffee pot sort of thing). I am very grateful to everyone who shares something in this place
cheers
