You have been a part of Nikonites for a long time and made great contributions.
But ...the clue is in the name - this is a site for Nikon users with some threads for other manufacturers.

If you want another site for different manufacturers then why not PM @jdeg rather than broadcast your wishes to everyone.
If you have moved on from Nikon fine there are lots of other sites out there.
I for one am a happy Nikon user and don't want to see this site fragment.
If you can create a user community as positive as this place then great, go for it.
Just saying.

Please re-read my post, I said nothing about changing this site.

I am commenting, not "broadcasting". I will say what I please just like everyone else. It was a suggestion, that's it, but feel free to exaggerate. Where did I say this site should change??

Having feet in two Manufacturers now, I really wish Jdeg would start a site for all brands (It could be called a "Photography Forum"). We could all live together with our diversity :). With Nikon now being my secondary system, I'm becoming torn :(

That idea is great. More perspectives, it doesn't mean that the philosophy of this board changes. But sharing ideas of other brands and not only Nikon users.

But I am happy if some forum are going to be installed like Canon, Olympus, etc. The main is Nikon.

Back on topic, I would like Gorf to elaborate on reasons for leaving.....thought he was a fine and always positive poster that will be missed.

I would guess the issue is a misunderstanding or misinterpretation of comments that could be smoothed over.

We already have one:

http://nikonites.com/non-nikon-cameras/#axzz3IcQqR6aM

But since the name of this site is Nikonites, I really see no reason to devote any more space to non-Nikon cameras and lenses. Just my 2 Lincoln heads worth.

I think if Gorf thought it is important to give a reason why he left, he would have told us. I don't know even if he gave us a reason we will understand.

Is same as a suicide who really understands why someone is doing this? All what we can do is respect the decison he left. But something I am confused is why he posted that he is leaving.

I got ya Rick!

It would be cool if Jdeg did START ANOTHER FORUM. But I bet we keep his hands pretty full on just this forum!

I'm sorry that gorf left. I wish him the best and hope one day he'll return (even if it takes him another 35 years!). Good luck gorf, and there's a lot to learn from this forum!

He bid a farewell April of 2013. The thread is here:
http://nikonites.com/feedback-and-suggestions/12600-deleting-forum-membership.html#post135668

Now, 19 months later, he does it again? And just a few days ago he went back and "disagreed" with the post I made after his first "goodbye cruel world" back in April 2013? Really? I don't know the guy and did not follow his posts, but sorry, I smell drama queen from 1000 meters away. You can call me an a--hole if you like, it would not be the first time nor the last time I have been referred to that way, but I have no patience for that kind of TomFoolery. You are either in or you are out. 19 months after the first "I am out of here" you are "out of here" again?

It has been said of chess that it is "water from which a gnat may drink, or an elephant bathe" and I think that applies here. Everyone is free to participate as much, or as little, as they feel is right for them.
