What the folks around here REALLY think of you and your photos.

I believe that was an insinuation that he was going to attack Tyler's computer.

I have a friend who is a programmer and what not and apparently can hack people's computers as long as he knows their e-mail addresses.

Either way... the whole argument is silly.

Haha, Em, he's not going to hack ****.

I didn't say he was *going* to... just that it was an insinuation that he was going to *try* :lol: :sexywink:
 
Ha!! And hilarity ensues. :lol:

Try to post anything on the intrawebs and someone is going to get unreasonably bent out of shape.

It was posted for a laugh folks....... al little comedy..... comin' right atcha..... Take it for what it's worth. No reason to get into a "meet me behind the bikeracks at 3:00" gradeschool pissing match over it. :er:

lighten up. It's the intertubes. Don't take it so seriously. You're less important than you think, especially in the eyes of strangers.

Trust me.
 
IMHO, the point being missed is that trained professionals in any field are often beset by non pros who automatically feel some type of kinship because they do as a hobby what the pro does as a vocation. "Hey, look, I've got a camera too!" What they often don't realize is the pro has technical knowledge and experience far beyond what they have.

I'm a pastry chef, so I'm often approached by people who have no formal training, but lots of recipes from grandma. Mostly what they produce is competently done, but far from professional standards. They usually have a different opinion of their work. So what do me and my pastry chef friends do when we get together? We share our stories about these family members and friends, and we do it in a mostly humorous, often sarcastic way. Do we mean any harm? No. We don't hate or bare malice towards these people. Are we talking down to them? No, but I understand where it could be interpreted that way. What we're doing is venting over a type of behavior/attitude that gets thrusts upon us with regularity by people who don't have the technical knowledge or experience that we do, and don't understand the difference that makes. That's all that blog is, venting. If you don't vent, sooner or later you go to work for the Post Office and buy a gun.
 
Tell me about it. :lol:

I had the newbies sensabilities in mind when I posted it in Photographic Discussions and didn't point everyone to the funniest post on the page.

But for so many members, the only place worth posting is the Beginners Forum and Gallery.


Didn't realize it was a double post....... My apologies. I don't make it to the other forums yet... they are strange and scary to me due to my extreme noobness. :lol:
