Is it something I said?

Boy for this being a forum for beginners, I guess no one seems to be able to answer my questions. I see on here I had 28 views, but I guess my questions weren't that important enough to rate a quick answer. Sorry

Oh here we go again.

This is the second time that someone is complaining about not getting a response to something they ask.

1. Give people a chance!
2. People may not always have an answer
3. People are not here to cater to the exclusivity of one person, you know they DO have lives outside this forum, yes?
4. This is NOT a forum for beginners, its a forum for photographers of ALL levels!
5. I work 6-7 days a week, a minimum of 10 hours a day or more. When I participate here, I do it because I can, and because I *want* to, not because I must. No one is paying members here to answer anyone's questions, it is done out of pleasure and at everyone's own pace.


If people start telling me that I must answer their questions... I just may decide to pack my bags and find another place that lets me enjoy the atmosphere without obligation.

Please, people, stop thinking about ONLY yourselves and start thinking of the club... and a part of that is respecting people's choice to participate in the manner that they choose to without complaint... irrespective of if you do or do not get your questions answered according to your schedule or not.

I personally find that kind of an attitude highly childish and annoying, especially if they are new here, have NOT done the course and basically exude a feeling of not caring for anything or anyone other than themselves. :mad:

Maybe I am overreacthing, I've not slept in 48 hours now, but man... a club is about respect and demanding answers of others is just so... rude.

Just because you had 28 views does not mean that people do not want to answer your question. You may have had people just clicking through the posts really fast, or somebody felt as if they could not answer it. It does not mean that you are being ignored or that it was something that you said. At least give people a few days to answer any questions that you might have. If people do not know the answers they might be looking them up for you. Give people a chance to answer you back. Be patient!

When I post a question in a forum, not specifically this one, and don't get an answer and see my post dropping, the first thing I assume is no one has the answer, and/or I asked the question wrong.

This is the best run and most helpful and curtious forum on the web, but it's also a small one. Try not to get defensive. Be patient.

I just re-read the question in question. :p I remember reading it the day it was posted. I was and still am confused at what exactly you are asking. I would suggest cleaning it up so it's not so confusing to follow.

Hi everyone,
My sincere apology for being so critical. I guess I too was having a rough day and just wanted everything done now. I humblely apologize to everyone on this site.

What I tend to do is when im stuck and can't get an answer for anything not just photography I use google or any of the other great search engines and I alway's get my answer.I know its easier to check on sites like this but if no joy try others mate afterall this is the information super highway or so they say LOL.

Good luck mate but never give up.
