We didn't try anything, except ask you some common questions that you refuse to answer simply because you want to live in a fantasy world. Do you not realize that no one "likes" you?
And we are not trolls, we just don't let you bully freely.
In any case, you are a lost case, I'd get more response out of talking to a wall.

For pity's sake, what are these questions that you are so obsessed with?

Not obsessed at all summer weed - 1 , if you are so dissatisfied with this site, why participate? Why not start your own forum? Can you answer that? You think so highly of yourself, surely this is a simple question to answer?

Is that all you are going on about. I actually thought it was something I should know.

To Continue while there is a lull in the storm:
My incomplete (I'm still looking at things.) opinions as to what might improve the Photo Critique & Analysis Section:
Id like to have everyone who posts a photo tell us a little more about their photo -- the subject of their photo (the title of their post might indicate that) and what they were trying to portray in their photo might be a start. It might also be interesting to know what software they have or used in post-processing the photo. Maybe that is shown in the exif data. If the photo isnt posted so as to show exif data ask them to repost it.
For those who constantly ask what should I do (or have done) with this photo? One person in particular! Id like to ask, What were you trying to do? or just say, delete it.
Tell those who post in the PC&A Section they dont have to make individual posts to each and every one who has commented on their photo thanking them for their comments and making other no value comments in return. Sorry. I couldn't help myself. I've been reading too many of W/R's posts.:-)
Some posts seem to be from people just wanting to show their photos and should go into the Photo Gallery Section.
Some photographers post frequently in the PC&A Section and seem to just want to be told how good they are. Id like to ignore how good they are and have someone who is really good at writing critiques seriously critique their photos. Some of these posts fall into the I just want to remind you how good I am category but should be posted in the Photo Gallery.
There are those who are good photographers and post very good photos. What they need in the form of critiques is beyond what they will find with mostly amateurs making critiques on UHH. I think the "rule" is that the critique has to be from someone whose experience and expertise goes beyond that of the one whose photo is being critiqued. Some good photographers are serious about getting a good critique and maybe should look at those web sites where they pay someone for a critique.
Some people will benefit from critiques from us amateurs because they are amateurs and still learning while the critiquer is an "advanced amateur." Ha! Ha!
Being a professional photographer doesnt necessarily mean that person will be good at writing a critique of someone elses photo. I know people ("Pros!?) who are selling what they do as photographers but their photos are awful. Also, not being a professional photographer doesnt mean that person is not capable of making worthwhile comments about what might improve a photo.

Usually for a photo being presented for critique to state the intent of the photograph is counter productive. The image should speak for itself and need no explanation other than a title. After the picture is critiqued by several people it would then be interesting to hear what the photographer intended.
I do think people should include their camera settings: ISO, f/stop, shutter speed, focal length and light source. It would make it more convenient for those critiquing rather than have to download the photograph (if you can) and view EXIF data (if there is any). Knowing those settings will not change the initial critique but can help to explain certain things, such as sharpness, and facilitate suggestions for future possible improvement.
The above are simply my opinions and suggestions. I do not think the section needs any more "rules." 8-)

I disagree. The photographer should know what his or her intent was and be able to state it without an explanation of how the photo does what he intended or an excuse as to why it doesn't. "What do you want the observer to feel when looking at your photograph" Then the critique can give an opinion of whether or not the intent was satisfied by the photo. Just my opinion.

The picture should say all. EXIF is irrelevant to critique. It is only relevant in a discussion about how to improve the picture.
