Never mind Andy, I shouldn't have sounded off. I have deleted my comment.
hey, it's a free forum if you don't sound off, then that's when there's a problem, imo.
'gus left in a huff over some rules changes. his loss, and ours, he was fun. my offer for the steak dinner in nyc was sincere, heck, maybe he's lurking and he'll hanker for a 40oz t-bone for two, at wolfgang's
Fish got a new gig at work, he's traveling a lot, and doesn't have time to post much anymore. About time, I say; his post count at ADVRider was insane! He's probably not able to shoot much, either, although I embrace work travel as a chance to make piccies.
Humongous left because he wasn't happy about having only one or two people choose the finalists for the photo challenge. I think he felt it was exclusionary.
These things happen, just life wending its way through the threads. I enjoy 'mungus a lot, but he's a grown man and can make his own decisions. I do notice that a favorite activity on boards is navel gazing. I think posts like mine, and threads like this, fall into that category. And head explosions seem to be a routine occurence, so I don't pay them much mind. Is it a pun to say that I don't mind head explosions?

Damn straight waxed underarm.
I did not leave in a huff over rule changes. I did not leave because i didnt have thick skin. Anyone can search & read why i left & for those that are interested i will go into it again here.
...the problem i had was that not everyone got to throw their shot up. One in ..all in. Thats been my motto since i was a kid. I hate exclusionism with ferocity, i put it lower than bigotry (is exclusionism a word ?) You dont even see that tolerated in YM which is really really saying something.
No matter how bad a newbies shot is...it still needs to be judged by its peers. I wont deflect from that opinion. Im sure those in here that have known me for 3-4 years in ADV YM... know that i have skin thicker than an M1 Abrams. I just dont like it when my fellow photogs are left out of the play.
I honestly dont know the new rules (if there are any)...& dont really care. As for non answered emails...i have about 2548754 email addys..i only use one that is private & in 5 years can still count the spam from it on one hand. Sorry if i didnt answer anyone but those that PM'd me in ADV got an immediate answer. Im sorry if anyone thought i was ignoring them as thats not how my mind works at all.

I'm glad I was wrong and he didn't leave in a huff over losing control of the challenges. Maye that means he might come back someday.
