Good afternoon everyone! I have been posting in this site for about three to four weeks now! My most critisized posts are the ones dealing with A.NET! Many by now think I only come to this site to bash airliners.net because I am so upset that my pictures aren't accepted. Lets put it this way, I am not happy with A.NET and that is why I visit this page now. If I was so upset that my photos aren't good enough for airliners.net I wouldn't be posting them here, I am not a quitter, but in this case I have totally lost any faith I had in contrubuting to A.NET. I am posting my pictures here because I want my photos to be shown, (like many others that photograph in this site). I don't care what the difference between this site and airliners.net is, I have nothing against either page itself, infact one of the other main reasons why I post here is the fact that it resembles the A.NET format but is more forgiving to the photographers! I love the physical format of these two pages, I am sure you will all agree. Many have told me, I have to have everything my way or else I wont be happy, that is true. And due to this I should have my own page, well to answer that, I don't have my own page because I don't have time to run it and I couldn't dream to receive the traffic rate that this or A.NET offers.
What I want you to all know is I was not meaning to totally trash a fellow website that I have loved for years (until this one was created). I was merely joining in on what I felt could be a good debate and a laugh about a topic that all of us know and have be associated with for many years now, that standards and management of A.NET. I apoplogize if this offends any members or the site itself. The last thing I want to do is become the PE#1 of this site and bring it down to a trashy level. So again I apologize for any insult.
Finally to the point, one thing that would help future post topics, if a post is a post that upsets you or brings the page morals down then don't get involved. This is a free speech forum and if you want a subject to go away then don't show interest. I personally will not continue a topic if no interest is shown in it. Anyone who continues to reply just adds fuel to a flame, and is only asking for another reply by the point maker. I keep getting these replies like you're a whiner, or this will never end! If the negativity in this site is unwanted then why is that most of us are intersted in it! Posts involving debates are the most popular and will always add colour and fun to the website(I am not saying they are all clean fun, I know some get out of hand but that is when the line should be drawn). So I have said it before and I will say it again: If all that is wanted here is happy, joyful, short lived posts then so be it, but I believe that exciting contraversal posts will always bring the most attention to members and have a more attractive and interesting forum for us! Positive posts don't usually attract debates!
I may be the only one that admits I think this way, but I know most of us do!
I am hoping you will all reply with your thoughts, and then we may all shape the forum together.
So, MERRY CHRISTMAS (or your NATIONAL holiday) and HAPPY NEW YEAR(whenever it occurs) to the JETPHOTOS.NET commuinity and the AIRLINERS.NET community!
