When did this group change from?
"HEMI-Powered" wrote in message ... Glenn added these comments in the current discussion du jour ... "HEMI-Powered" wrote in message ... Maple1 added these comments in the current discussion du jour ... When I first discovered this group it was a place for aviation enthusiasts to share their work. A place to show your photos and a place to share original work. When did this group change from that to a group that you flood with photos from other sources? Must be all those young computer geeks that spend so much time in front of the computer that they don't have time nor the talent to get a camera and take some photos of their own. Soon when all us who still shoot are dead and gone all we will have is others posting our work and all the originality will be gone It is a shame. What difference does it make if an OP posts his or her own photos or whether they post scans or pictures gleaned from other places? It seems to me that so long as they are on-topic and have something to do with aviation in the broadest sense, why isn't that OK? This bigoted view reminds me of the change from aeronautical engineer to aerospace engineer in deference to the space race, so why is it bad to post pictures of NASA vehicles so long as they're of reasonable size and in JPEG format? If you want only original works, I think you'll find that the amount of content posted will drop off dramatically to the detriment of the group. I see your still bitching about other peoples views. Kinda makes you the Bigot doesn't it. Not hardly. What I'm doing is challenging the very bigotry you seem to be defending, including your own cheap shots. well the advice was free but if you think they were cheap, I look forward to your payment. |

My payment is pointing out that many people in this NG have outmoded ideas and that promoting an obsolete standard for posting amounts to blind hatred and bigotry towards those who challenge it. As for you, you made your own bed, now lie in it. -- HP, aka Jerry Don't be a fop or a blooter, make only pithy comments on Usenet |

Merri-lee we troll along troll along troll along.... Why don't you try some pithy comments instead of proving you're a fop and a blooter.

Kinda makes you the Bigot doesn't it. No, it doesn't. I simply point out the stupids, the ignorant, and the lazy. It is they, not me, that are bigots about what can be posted here. Taking the view that all pictures must be original and not scanned from books or gleaned from good web sites is both childish and short-sighted. -- HP, aka Jerry Don't be a fop or a blooter, make only pithy comments on Usenet |

news:OH1vk.243565$gc5.181201@pd7urf2no... When I first discovered this group it was a place for aviation enthusiasts to share their work. A place to show your photos and a place to share original work. When did this group change from that to a group that you flood with photos from other sources? Must be all those young computer geeks that spend so much time in front of the computer that they don't have time nor the talent to get a camera and take some photos of their own. Soon when all us who still shoot are dead and gone all we will have is others posting our work and all the originality will be gone It is a shame. This same argument was made over at a.b.p.animals on several occasions. There is a group called a.b.p.animals.original - maybe the same applies for aviation. To continue the same argument here... where does it say the images have to be original? As long as they are on-topic, there should be no problem. As has been noted on .animals, not all of the images shown on this group have ever been original - you might want to talk to Mitchell about original works - he's been posting here for some years now and he's not the only one. Also, if it is original work, you are placing that on a public-access newsgroup; therefore, you have little say in what is actually done to your images after they are posted - how do you prove that you took them? There is no copyright info attached; nobody can contact the OP (both Original Poster and Original Producer) to ask for permission. Do you really think people are simple looking at these images? I have collected litterally thousands of images over the years - no way of telling who the OP is or was. |
