I am so sorry if i have caused offence here, i didnt realise for a second when i started the thread that it would lead to such things - i really am sorry forum an peeps xx

When i got a post that didnt seem fuelled with hate, and i fear, more emphasis on the ego of the poster rather than trying to 'give advice' then i did try to respond to them politely and carefully
You didn't respond, which was a little disappointing, if quite understandable amidst all the heat.
But you also said that you like genuine debate. It would be nice if we could have an actual debate with you about genuine photographic topics.
Who knows, maybe I'd end up moving to Nikon

It is sad individuals like this who turn this forum from a friendly nice place to a horrid place at times IMHO
However, remember that it takes two to quarrel,
G
people questioned me on why i started that thread if i was sure of my choice, well i am sure of my religious choices but it doesnt stop me discussing life with Muslims, Christians and other people alike
it doesnt have to be a case of right and wrong, it can just be a case of discussion
But also wishing the op would try to calm down and understand the advice she was being given.
I am giving my opinion here because i really think the nice members of this forum (which i think include the Admin and Mods which is a far cry from most forums, where the admin and the mods are on powertrips and every sort of pussy foots around them)
Plus i didnt really feel the advice i was being give suited what i was talking about, i two have read through that thread to see what exactly i could have taken from it, and it boiled down too - your a rubbish photographer, you havent bought the most brilliant lenses for the pentax therefore you have no right to comment and that moving to nikon would make me a brand W***E

Unfortunatly a few members dont understand the importance of politeness, and if they dont understand the importance of politeness, their opinions will be valued LESS on a whole.
Perhaps that is something that we should just ignore on a forum but calling my tutor an idiot on the basis of nothing (perhaps Ian would like to take that person to court? ) insinuating that i was being bullied into changing, that i hadnt thought about it at all, that i was a worse photographer for changing and also that my work was both not up to scratch and un-improvable? was what made it all very hard to have the conversation with certain people
However it really is ONLY a few people who perhaps should be incouraged by the forum to be a tiny bit different with people, or perhaps after this incident will agree to stay out of thread where they feel such a negative passionate view
That i think would really improve the forum - it can be a lovely place, the inbox full of supportive PMs and the attitudes of the mods have shown that
I may not have my K20D anymore but i am still waiting to send a couple of lenses - so techincally i hope i can still post and my opinions are still counted albeit just for a few weeks

Going to court... well not too sure there was anything to go to court About really, certaintly dont think any solicitor in their right mind would take the case
hopefully hes just a bit embarrassed about it all now and will react to things differently in future


cheers
