Hah! It's ridiculous. Go to "Forums, Latest Posts," and what do you get? "Recent Topics." How stupid is that?? Two entirely different subjects. Their moderators do not appear to be very bright, but perhaps English is not their first language, so maybe I shouldn't be too critical. I comment occasionally, but of course don't expect many intelligent replies.BTW, what do you guys think of the forum PhotographyTalk? I tried to like it but its a bit quirky w/ small feedback. I just can't seem to be involved or accepted. Maybe it's just me.
PN was Phil Greenspun. Once he sold it in 2007, the site steadily lost the smart, funny, generous community it attracted since the mid-90s. A string of snarky mods and dead-hand management created more problems than they solved. Seems populated now mostly by a cast of cranks, scolds and boors who split hairs and scuffle in the low-traffics forums.They're difficult to contact for problem solving. I registered, but forgot to add a screen name. Once the ID was set, I couldn't go back and add one. I contacted them via the required folks, but never got a response. The site content was interesting enough to re-register, so I did. However, it looks as though the site could use a major refresh, more to do with site content, etc.
They went to a FB pageI'd like to clarify are you talking about a FB page like say a "smoke665 Photo services" or FB personal profile?
This was an example, and not intended as all inclusive. Anything that the AI detects as violent in nature could be subject to being covered.n the 2-3 dozen photo forums I am registered at I have yet to see war & riot photos having its own section
I dont want to see physical violence on my Facebook newsfeed.This was an example, and not intended as all inclusive. Anything that the AI detects as violent in nature could be subject to being covered.
The only issue is what you're trying to make of it. I merely stated that FB has rules regarding posts, same as most forums. My OP wasn't about FB or which was better, it was about the demise of a photography forum.I dont want to see physical violence on my Facebook newsfeed.
Many other people do not want to see it either.
So what is the issue?
Dude you made up so much extreme scenarios that I was wondering if you were younger than me.The only issue is what you're trying to make of it.

Video has a higher barrier to entry and is more time consuming than photos.I've seen that happen with video editing forums that was once booming and now are ghost towns.
There are professional video editing forums which are still strong (Creative Cow) There were many others geared to the hobbyist. People that needed help converting camcorder analog & HD video to digital. VHS tapes, mini VHS, mini DV & HD tapes. You had to know codecs and file formats. Then converting those files for upload on a platform (YouTube) or to DVD. Now with SD cards it goes straight to upload to your computer. The consumer video editing programs have easy "share to" buttons when you are done. Before you had to plug in all the numbers for 1 pass or 2 pass or keyframes, etc.Video has a higher barrier to entry and is more time consuming than photos.
As such I think the early video editing forums gave budding professionals a leg up onto work in the video market.
As they're getting a lot of paid gigs they do not have time participate on any online forum.
