In less than a week I have decided to leave the UHH site. Although I have already met very nice folks, most especially my VN Vet comrades, the negative sours the positive. For those that welcomed me with open arms ... THANK YOU ... for the Cyber-bullies ... you should be ashamed and go away. For an in-depth explanation click on this link: http://dennstedt.wordpress.com/2013/04/08/cyber-bullies/

Adios mi amigos. And best wishes from an old fool in Ciudad de Merida, Yucatan, MX.

I'm sorry to see you go, I read your blog post and I agree with almost everything you said. I enjoyed your posts and loved looking at your gallery, your images are amazing. Makes me wish I was more of a world travler.

Hi

I only found your photography recently and made some comment on them.
I have read your post (twice) just to ensure I have understood what it was saying

Sorry your leaving the site

as a newbie to photography it isn't always what is said about my posts that you learn from but what is said about other shots that are much better than mine

Hope you find palace to share your professionalism and enthusiasm for helping others

Best wishes

Very interesting, you join us on April 2 and on April 4 you post that you enjoy the “ego boost” from the members here at UHH then again on April 4 you post that UHH is a friendly group and you are enjoying it and that you like the positive feedback. Today UHH is nothing more than a bunch of cyber bullies. I looked through your posts and I couldn’t find one instance where anyone had a negative comment toward you let alone anything that even came close to resembling bullying. So I read your blog and you tell us we should “man up” when faced with cyber bullies but you choose to cut and run. I must confess I’m a bit confused but of course will respect your decision. I wish you well and do hope you find whatever it is you’re searching for.

Stephen,
I sincerely hope I didn't help run you off, but if I did, I'd hope you'd reconsider...and I apologize. I can be blunt, and direct and snippy at times.

Sorry to see you go.

So sorry to see you go. You appear to be a really genuine decent guy. I've read your attachment and have to agree with most of what you wrote. I too hate the bullying that goes on in this cyber world - those people who are happy to "hide" behind their computers so that they can bully incognito. Yes, there are a number here and most right minded folk choose to ignore them.

Good luck in all you do. Bob

It wasn't you my friend. Sent you a PM. Better off this way, I just don't have the time or patience for it anymore. There are a lot of people who want to learn the craft. I just dropped out of a forum for Professionals also, for exactly the same reason.

I can only wish you the very best of luck Stephen and say to you with no reservation that this site will miss the beauty you capture with your camera.

I'm really sad your leaving, but I understand and respect your decision. I'd just like to say that I really enjoyed your posts. As a beginner myself who enjoys photography, I still have lots to learn. Folks like you gave people like me that gateway. When asked, you never hesitated explaining the details about your shots. I always looked forward to your posts, for I knew that I would see something magnificent and probably learn a thing or two. During your time here, I felt you went out of your way to be respectful. Your leaving is a big loss, we need people like you here to enrich us all...
God's Speed in your adventures in life...
James

I am also sorry to see you go. I agree with much of what you said about cyber bullies, and those on this site. I almost left as well, but I have picked up many tidbits and made many cyber friends on this site and now I just pass over the negative souls and ignore them. Now and then I have expressed my disgust to some of the unfortunates, but don't I no longer waste my time.

I have grown as a result of the information I have found on this site. Not just comments but links to very enlightening information and lessons.

So sorry to see you go!!!!

Ol' Frank Loc: Orlando,
 
I just read your post along with everyone else on this thread and I tend to agree with about everything you say. I hope your next adventure and all that follow will bring you much pleasure. I am sorry to see you go as I am with all who leave UHH for reasons such as this. Good luck.
