about pro-quality photos, winning cameras etc. It is about a bunch of
people who read this newsgroup taking photos on a specific subject, then

"this" newsgroup? Given this crap has been cross-posted across half a dozen
newsgroups as usual, it's very hard to figure out what sort of distorted,
idiotic reality you live in when calling it the singular "this".


getting feedback on their photos to 1) widen people's photographic
repertoire (so they don't get stuck in a rut of taking photos of dogs in
Bret's case; or in your case, ugly dogs on their wedding day), and
2)allow people to receive constructive criticism on their photos.

Really? Here is a hint: open up a forum in pbase and do all that crap in there.
Instead of polluting public newsgroups with your backyard ventures.


There are oodles of photographic contests on the web and in magazines
where you can win your D3 if that's what floats your boat. If that's
what you want SI to be, then **** off and join one of those other
contests. In the meantime leave SI participants alone.


No. The SI Participants **** OFF public newsgroups so they can be used by the
general public. Instead of by a bunch of backyard rednecks.



Jealous because you couldn't take it over and make it a commercial venture?

I'm glad you openly admit Bret's ulterior motives.


Is your little obsession with causing **** in these newsgroups an effort
to get out of obscurity?

Now it's "these" newsgroups? Make up your mind, MORON! Is it one or many?



So it hasn't occurred to you that some people can have altruistic
motives?

If next you get cry, I'm gonna throw up...

Who the **** is Emily and what do I care what the size of their server
farm and data centre is? Presumably you are making some reference to the
owners of pbase. They run a website hosting photos.

Amazing. Just that, photos? Are you absolutely sure?
Do you still believe in Santa as well?

principle of business as being a means to earn money. But then, you
don't even earn enough to register for GST, so maybe you are all ****
and wind.

Given that you don't either, it's all **** and wind with you as well, eh?
