I view UHH as a social gathering of those with various interests, and most often, with like minds. To me, it's about sharing and caring. A place where we can not only share our images but have a connection with folks from all corners who we would never have the opportunity to get to know otherwise.

I frequent many photography sites where I am in awe of much of the work posted on them. I know that I would never fit in and I find them to be quite "socially sterile" with little to no sharing or mentoring.

General ChitChat is where information is shared when questions of all kinds are asked, jokes provide a chuckle, and links to items of interest can be found.

All in all, I consider UHH my home and extended family with friends from afar.

Jug's absolutely correct. I enjoy UHH just as much for the social aspect as for the photography posts. I have little doubt the majority of Hoggers are baby boomers and Gen Zers like me and it's good to share humor, philosophy, complaints, etc. with people who are clearly of a like mind as me. I belong to a radio control airplane club with the same membership demographics as UHH. Sadly, membership is dwindling as younger "kids" are focusing on RC cars that much, much easier to operate than aircraft the same as kid now-a-days seem mostly satisfied with smart phone cameras rather than spending the money and time to master a DSLR. Hopefully, UHH will be around for the rest of my life although in my case, that might not be terribly long!

How about eliminating the general non-photography chit chat forum? It has absolutely no relevance here. Th3 dialogue spirals into nonsense pretty fast. Me, I’m looking for photography insights here.


gvarner,
It's my experience that practically all (successful) forums have a 'chat' section and Like the Hog, they offer a choice for the readers to either take part in that section or not. My suggestion is for you to by-pass this section and move on to the ones that interest you. ''Easy-Peasy", eh?
God Bless,
Papa Joe

So don't click on it, it rounds out the experience , makes the forum like a room full of photogs talking.

I would recommend eliminating the Nude photography and bedroom section before the ChitChat section. Chit chat at times is informative, comical, and informative.
The nude section is offensive to me and does not exemplify the purpose, character and integrity of Ugly Hedgehog


I find it offensive that you find nudity offensive! So there!

I enjoy this section. I don’t subscribe to what I don’t like. Do the same.

I cannot believe that someone suggested that. Woke has become a part of the American way. Sad...

Don't read it.
I skip the sections that I don't care about. Only it's harder now that it's all mixed up. If they went back to the old way it would be easer for both you and me.

I could post a nude picture of myself and probably get the nude section taken down IMMEDIATELY


Would it be that ugly? <G>

It’s only mixed in the digest. If you went directly into UHH you would get your subscribed sections listed separately. Not only that, they would be complete, not just a selection of recent threads.

Whoa; if it weren't for the chit chat section, what would Jerry and the rest of us do?


That was my second thought...

Since you are posting, you already are "set...to UHH". It's all there for you. I can help you if you want.

[I love your marriage/TV comment!]
