Fair do's. I just had a peek in the Pro forum, same story there. IMO the trouble comes from the idea of a community. Everyone likes to belong and yet all communities are exclusive. At the moment there's an influx of people spending cash on Nikon gear which is great, they get membership to the club and fund R&D for anyone who isn't happy with older gear.

Trouble is, for any given post there will be better and worse informed/intentioned participants. I make a point of reading the un-answered posts first if I'm in a mood. There's a lot of energy wasted on policing, troll baiting and sniping. So what if someone thinks a shot is great. Glad you enjoyed meeting a person with a camera whose photography you admired.
