TPF is losing it's appeal

[eric-holmes]

People need to relax.....that thread hasn't even been open a week!! It will die down and things will go back to normal. It's the winter time for most of us and things in general get boring. At least everyone is enjoying each other and learning about the people they see on here everyday. Or we could go back to fighting in threads, that was going on about a month or 2 ago.....lol That was fun. I don't know, I think I would rather have this.

I'm relaxed, and just for the record Mishele, you can post pics of yourself anytime, I personaly think you should start your own thread :mrgreen:

Oooh, I agree. More pics Mishele

The best thing about a forum like this one, is that is has several separate sections...so everyone can easily choose which type of posts they want to read, post or reply to.

If you think threads like those mentioned, are getting too much attention...then stop clicking on them.

But do people actually utilize the separate sections like the should? Say, this thread?

I intentionally posted this here, rather than the off topic forum, because this thread directly relates to the beginners section.

When I have enough weddings and make pretty decent money from it, I will start posting it under "professional gallery". Of course there is no doubt in my mind someone is going to say, why are these in the professional gallery, not beginner? Then my post will turn into pissing contest. :lmao:

 

[eric-holmes]

Ok. I just can't see how this threads correlates with anything about a beginner aside from the fact that it's just been dumped in the beginner forum because "it's the one that everyone posts in so it will get the most visual stimuli".

That's what is nice about a forum like this. We can have social discussions like this one along with answering the questions of others.

I've been going to forums for a long time.

This is what happens.

There will always be the old guard who will "Remember better times" of the forum. That is usually because the forum is smaller and it is a tight nit group of everyone knowing everyone and all there for the same reason.
The larger the forum gets, the more the focus sort of blurs. People will have been here for a while so they use it for both "Photography" and socializing. New people come in and want to share their photography but also want to join in with the socializing a bit.

I was on a forum like that, there from the beginning and for a few years it was just fantastic. But eventually the forum just got way to big, people who used it at first sort of got lost in the mix. Forum eventually just closed. Was kind of sad.

But It also depends on WHERE you go in a forum. There are still branches of this forum that look like they are all photo all business. This area seems to be a bit more casual. Thats just my first impression as I am really new to this forum. Though not new to using forums.


Here is a great forum that has good community, is rather large and still keeps its focus.
ConceptArt.org Version 3.0
