Several years ago, the scientific community thought that space was a void. Nothing was connected. We were alone, disconnected and totally autonomous. However, as of late that hypothesis has been replaced by the dark matter and the zero point theories or called
Please don't mingle physical sciences with this sort of discussion here ...else you might wake up the pro scientists on the forum
I think most people in here value your contribtutions and your willingness to share part of your experience.
Just sometimes it seems like in addition to that you are on a mission, and part of that mission enters some of your posts which are about general photography.
I am not a pro photographer (which means I make my living from other sources of money), but when I post some of my work here I tell people maybe what sort of lens I used, what film I used, or if it was a digitial sensor. But I hardly ever tell people which brand name is printed on the camera body I used, because I think it simply does not matter.
Don't get me wrong, I myself never felt offended by any posts of yours. I also get your point that you try to tell that there is more in photography than two brand names only, and that noone should be discredited as a pro for not using those brands.
However, different from most other forums I know, this one here is not so brand-name-focussed anyway, that is one reason why I like this place.
On some other forums they wage real war about which brand is "the best" ... and they forget about photography in this discussion. Also film and digital people manage to coexist here, which again tells me this forum is about the image mainly.
