When did this group change from?

Here is your original post:

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.

You would appear to be objecting to non-original photos.

Gary Glitter has said if he gets executed he wants cremating and his ashes putting in an etch-a-sketch, so the kids can still play with him!

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.

Like I said to Maple1 - don't worry about HEMI - he's just a troll. I
suggest the application of your killfile in his instance.

Oh I don't mind educating the uneducated at times.

I appreciate your effort, but it's a lost cause in the case of all trolls
like HEMI.

Yeah, we know how effective those kill-filters are.

Hey Einstein, I'm still waiting for:

either a letter of complaint from NewsGuy about what
you falsely accused me of (forging headers),

*OR*

your admission of lying and an apology to the group
for being a liar.

(crickets STILL chirping)

Who is the real troll, Einstein?


-----------------------
Here's *my* funny sig from an ABPA thread on 08/16/08:
Alan Erskine says... "I've got an IQ of 151"
"I'm in the 99th percentile for my age group - that's the top 1 percent"
(nice math there, Einstein!) "I doubt very strongly that you know
anyone in my range of IQ" (Thankfully, NO!)
Lee discussing newsserver retention:
"...I can go back about 6 months..."
Alan Erskine interrupts with:
"Why should we wait for six months to download an image
that was posted yesterday?"

Hemi head wanna be.

Not hardly. What I'm doing is challenging the very bigotry you
seem to be defending, including your own cheap shots.
