I wish you wouldn't let him win. Sorry I didn't get to know you but I do appreciate the heads up. Good luck and please reconsider, you could always just steer clear of that person and kind enough to warn the newbies like myself. Best of luck to you....

100% of the time when there's some idiot attacking someone..they are a coward hiding behind a computer name, not their real name.

there is nothing wrong with using computer names or nicknames. most are very cool.....but it's easier for a bully or jerk to come down on someone when they cannot be identified.

no disrespect meant to anyone using a computer name....just disrespect meant for those who bully or attack.

i hope i made myself clear.

It won't take long if you are on here much at all to find out who a couple of these people are. I have only felt deeply irritated by two individuals and scratched by one. My choice is to ignore them and if they respond to a thread negatively I suggest everyone leave the thread or if the OP is able to - delete their response. I have notice in the last week there has been a calmness to some of the stronger voices. Maybe it is the season, but I doubt it.

As the OP stated; this isn't about him being 'bullied' on this board; he was just tired of pictures being presented that obviously weren't the poster's and wouldn't "man" up to it>

I like this response. Although I have removed my site info and real name, I would always be willing to provide it to anyone that deems it necessary to validate my comments. And by the way, ALL photos on my site were taken by me, and I'm man enough to admit it. lol.

I have no problem with "fun screen names" but if someone wants the critique to be taken seriously they need to have at least a link to their own photography site to back it up. There are some on here that claim to be "professional" but have no credentials so therefor no credibility.
Remember people can google any situation and put in a response based on that info and not have any real life experience with it to back it up. I'm pretty darn sure of that being done on here because the few pics that have been posted do not live up to their self proclaimed credentials.

Now that is just ugly. If we can get more proof of that I would notify Admin. That is just wrong.

I'm sorry, I can't be on a site with a "FAKE" it's not my style, in-fact it really pisses me off. We the photographer's are out here really busting our a**es and then we get a "FAKE" to have to deal with.

Not to start anything but the person I'm speaking of is "PWhisperer".
He came in showing off these pro style "Modeling" photographs and then has the nerve to post below " amateur " style photographs of a girl whom decided to pay him to do another shoot next week or some crap lie, then he went on to speak about her friends whom saw the exact 4 photographs and wanted to pay him to shoot them as well. Anyone in the right mind wouldn't have even paid a nickle for those and he has the nerve to call anyone who puts watermarks on photographs basically "fakes".
I completely refuse to stay here, I am sorry but I can't, if you want feedback from me, awesome, and thank you all for your kind words. I've seen many come and go quickly, I've gave this site 3 chances and I won't go on for a 4th. It's ridiculous.

Thank you, Dria. I try not to be too acerbic though it is in my nature to be so. If I can help someone, I love doing it. I know nothing about the technical aspects but I do know something about composition so I'm anxious to "give tips" if I can.

Having read thru 3 pages of posts, I was relieved to find jwilliams0469's naming the person who he was referring to......I recall seeing PWhisperer's post with the pics and his statement about people who put watermarks on their images.....After I read that post, I just went on with my life...........

I don't really see the logic of leaving a site where you have made over 1,000 posts because of 1 person.....I'm sorry to see it happen..

Just wanted to say goodbye to all my friends on the forum. I'll leave all my information on my profile for those whom care and would like to keep track, but only for a week. I'm tired of the "FAKE" on this site, it's obvious he's not the one taking those photograph's. Also, tired of being attacked on here so. Just so the looser know's he hasn't won, KARMA is following close behind him.
To my friends - I wish you luck.
To the Fake - Karma always wins in the end.


If you leave then the "FAKE" HAS WON!! and you have lose. He does not care about KARMA....all he will know is that he HAS made you leave. He will be here and you will not. Not only do you lose but all those who you have helped will also lose. You have over 1000 post, so there are over 1000 plus members that you may have been enlighten and helped by YOU. I guess the old saying is true that ONE BAD APPLE spoils the whole bunch.
I have always told my daughter to follow her gut and not do let what others THINK she should do guide what she does. So I can only hope you follow your gut and do what you feel is right for you.
Best of luck and HAPPY HOLIDAYS.
