[QUOTE="BackdoorArts, post: 396173, member: 9240"] (Just a heads up, this is a lot about me just bitching, so if you don't care to read it feel free to move on) On occasion I get PM's asking my opinion about this and that, or more detailed questions about something I've posted elsewhere. I don't mind answering, though I think that this kind of information/opinion is generally better shared openly so, a) everyone can read it, and b) I only have to type it once. But like I said, I generally don't mind. With that said, in the last 2 weeks I've gotten more than a handful of these, generally dealing with Sony a6000 and D750 questions. Most folks have responded with a, "Hey, thanks a lot for taking the time", but more and a couple have received lengthy and detailed responses, some while fighting off flu-like symptoms, and after several days I've heard not a peep in response. Not even a simple 3-letter "Thx" or a 2-letter "FU". I would have appreciated either over the utter lack of acknowledgement you gave to my effort to help you. So, with that said, I'm copping an attitude about this, and unless we've had some sort of external communication before, or established some type of report here on the forum, don't bother asking me private questions - I will not respond. Obviously your time is worth far more than mine, and your desire for information is purely selfish, and I have no stomach for such stuff. You're tantamount to the telemarketer who not only interrupts a family dinner, but calls me back when I hang up on you. You can all feel free to tag me in an open forum and I'll do my best to respond promptly, if only for the benefit of others. And I apologize to those of you who may have pinged me recently and who [I]did[/I] respond to my note back - this is not about you, and you can all feel free to keep on writing. End of rant. No replies necessary. [/QUOTE]
