If you follow the comments and replies on news added on the front page (now and for the past several months) the DPreview team is answering genuine comments and concerns with a very edgy attitude, bordering on disrespectful. Barney Britton seems specially arrogant in his replies to what is essentially his feeding hand - the readers and visitors to this site.

I am wondering if there is a bit too much ego nowadays on the dpreview team and perhaps Amazon as a owner needs to step in and moderate their own employees.

Anyone else find the team tone annoying?

Not really, if you read the extremely rude way the staff are talked about or treated by individuals in the forum and elsewhere, I'm pretty impressed at their tolerance.  The attitude of visitors here is, at times, extremely disrespectful of the free and fine service the site provides. If it was a bar, many of those folks would have been bounced.  The staff has far thicker skin than I would have imagined. Hats off to them.
