Who are the most helpful posters on TPF

Woot I made the list!!*


Ok I'm happy now this thread can crash and burn (though surprisingly we are on page 3 and its all going smooth - ooh I'm so proud of you all! )



* is that allowed - I mean I've only like 3/4years of photography and the last year I've not done much so its mostly not counting - and I've never even touched film!**

** well ok I tried it once and the film didn't load right or something silly

:shock: What??? Ummm... I'm not sure we can be friends any more!

Aww
but but I can change! (provided I ever bother to learn how to load film properly.....)

There are a few people I respect more than others. I've found Schwettylens and Manaheim to be sympathetic people. Those mentioned on that list as well.

Also, I'd say Bynx who dwells in the HDR department Sparky also. I'll also mention EridD down in wildlife, though he's more of a picture sharer. Awesome eagle pics!! Like, totally fab-wait for it-ulous!

And Ron Evers is the grandpa everyone loves. (if you read this, I hope you're taking it the right way )

I think I get the best insight from the following people. I hope I'm not overlooking anyone. I may have to edit this post a few times to get everyone in there:

(keep in mind, many of these people overlap in different areas of helpfulness, but this is how I see them at the root. They are all great on many levels).

Bitter (He's killer for business advice, and overall rational thinking)

KmH, Schwettylens, TwoColor, Traveler (for thoughful photo critique)

BigMike, Overread, and Terri (for being great mods who also always go out of their way to help others and keep tempers in check)

Goonies and Cloudwalker (for always making me think of things differently than I normal would. They make me "ponder" things)

Again, I'm sure I'm leaving a lot of people out. There are a lot of truly helpful people here.

I would like to be more helpful but not sure how. I have the worst post-to-like ratio ever. So if someone wants to give me a no-sh*tter on how to improve, I'm all ears.

 

[mrstravis]

My special thanks to the traveler. He knows his stuff and doesn't spoon feed. I read whatever he writes on any thread I click on.

I have the worst post-to-like ratio ever.

problem is that rich get richer. If you help in a thread where also one of the major helpers (which I thank) is, likes go to him/her. It's not helpers, but how helped behave .
I agree with most of the listed people here (but some I never crossed). Although I'm not always in agreement, I'm also glad to read analog_universe.

Bitter Jeweler, KmH, and Derrel don't really comment on my stuff but I read what they write for other's a lot.

I guess I will stop giving advice on this forum since I am obviously not one of the 'anointed' ones.

Your painties, I see them. They're in a bunch.

[Josh66]

I think threads like this are kind of pointless, and sometimes just asking for trouble...

Who remembers the "Who is on your ignore list?" thread?
That one got locked pretty quick...

 

[bazooka]

At least this thread is positive, you don't see many of these around.

I do want to thank Derrel for taking the time to help me out via PM when I asked for it.

 

[Compaq]

I thank all those who PM me, it lightens my day

Hey George. Don't worry about labels. You know your stuff. Keep helping where you can. You don't need to be "annointed" to help people. You are plenty great. IMO, if people don't want to listen to your advice, it is their loss. You are among the people I see as a powerhouse in the future.
Don't put too much stock in that in this forum. I'm not amoung the chosen ones either. Doesn't matter though. I will just keep doing my thing and plugging along. I've never been looking for an award. Stick in there, and pay back. Pass it forward. It doesn't matter if people give you a high five.
