p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · "Official" Threads - LOL


I love photography nerds ensuring that the thread they open on a topic is the "Official" one by denoting it as such in the title.

Most do it to eliminate duplicate/triplicate threads...
you're such a huge contributor here, I'd think you'd know that

FM is so disorganized that at least having one larger thread (e.g., with a bunch of related vanity images) is probably better than a larger number of separate threads. The problem is that anyone can create such threads so they are not very official and sometimes there are still more than one similar thread.

I always smile when I see that but I trust the intentions are good. Yes, it is nice to have one thread to turn to if curious about a lens or camera. I generally try to start threads that have wide appeal but that has less to do with seeking immortality than it does with the fact certain topics are of abiding interest to me and I like to get to know folks through the process of sharing photos and opinions. Longer threads allow that to happen... official or not.

Easy there tiger - I've been out here on FM as long as you have - just don't personally have the free time to post 36,520 times over the same period of time.

See those little dots just under the username and online/offline status lines for every poster?

That's the output from the FM nerd detector: after four dots, it's official; you're a nerd.

Nothing to add. Just wanted to see how many dots I got.


Edit, Only 3 so I'm still safe.

Carry on.
