At this point, you're probably right. It's just the daily circus around here. It borders on amusing I guess. I don't care so much about the posts being incessant or off-topic sometimes, but it is a bit frustrating that Neil, with 100% consistency, tells us just how awesome and fantastic his photos are, while also generally disregarding constructive criticism. So it seems like it's more of an amusing game to him, while he remains coy.

No healthy person who actually posts fantastic images (like yourself), ever, ever displays so much egotism. That's the one thing I don't get. You can't post a simple, basic, plain, no-frills snapshot, that displays nothing beyond what Auto can give you, and barely makes use of any "gear" worth mentioning, and title it "Once again a truly phenomenal photo!" and say things like "It cannot get any better than this!" or "This classic masterpiece....", etc. etc., and be taken seriously or respectfully. Someone like that is either A) a bit off mentally, or B) just manipulating the chickens in the coop for sport.

I dunno. It's all so pointless, really, to care either way.
