    Listen guys, we all know that DPReview has a different moderation policy than we do over here. Frankly, I'm getting bored of a few of you (and you know who you are) coming over here and having a really good moan. There's NOTHING we can do about it - and repeating things that happen to you over there won't fix it any faster (or at all).

    So, you've had your say - thank you. But don't keep going on about it - it's not doing you or us any good.

    If you think I am wrong and you SHOULD be moaning over here, feel free to respond to my post and tell me why.

    Cheers

    Alan

    I can only agree with you 100%, I'm a bit fed up with the whiners

    Since many of us subscribe to both sites, I assume that posts/comments (other than about moderators/mderation) are still OK.

    If it is relevant and adds to our knowledge of photography, OK. But this is a photo forum, not a comment forum on what might or might not be going on elsewhere.

    How about discussions of US politics? Surely that's not off the table! 😁

    Surely we remember the Good Old Days or Bad Old Days of DPR with the cesspit Off Topic Forum?

    By "the cesspit", surely you mean "the small piece of heaven on earth where we could all bathe in the overflowing cup of human goodness that graced us all". Alas, I find myself guilty of using too many words to describe a simple truth. 😂

    I was guilty too, then it was shut down. Those were the days. But now there’s XenForo.

    I post world class extreme macro images and rarely get a single comment, 🤔 conversations talking garbage is more interesting and fun to through a bit of banter amounst members that i have known for 15 years. And besides im the only one out of 5 active members that shoots Sony, maybe thats why no one likes my images 😁
