There was an intelligent discussion on the Main Photography Discussion forum.

Quote:

You can't post replies in topics in this section because you are not explicitly added to the allowed list for this section. And the section's default rule is to reject replies for anyone not on the allowed list.

I am not allowed? I had just posted two comments within the previous few minutes. How are people to have an intelligent discussion when you get banned? And this was an intelligent discussion. Or it had been.

Apparently the thread was intended to be a message rather than a discussion. I hit 'quote reply' and got the same response.

Was it about that consult the experts thing. I would think compartmentalism will spell the end of UHH.

The admin moved it to the section.

If you were on "Ask the Pros" you were not on a forum.
Rather, the unquestioning opinions of "Pros" of limited validity.

Slightly off topic, but I had the admin move it where it belonged.

Otherwise, no one is holding you back from starting up a new thread in this forum to continue the conversation.

As one of the selected pros, why don't you ask an intelligent question and see what type of response you receive, before you criticize

What do you base your unbiased opinion of the Pros validity on?

It was on the Main Discussion page. That is how I managed to make two comments earlier.

Apparently that is the type of response that started the whole kerfuffle in the first place.

I tried to contribute to a thread when I thought I was on the Main Discussion Section, and got the same story that I was not on the allowed list.
Hurt my feelings.

I've read some of their replies and have seen some of their photography.

No, it was the hue and cry of the not included.
