I'm proud to say that I've actually reported him quite a few times when he starts up those damn JPEG vs. RAW threads that add nothing to this board at all except for fighting.

EOSMIKE has been around a few years. Based on what I have seen, he seems to like stirring up the pot here and there. Those who pickup a fight and start hurling invectives at him are perhaps equally culpable of the ensuing melee. His own conduct thru it all I haven't found offensive though.

What I find much more objectionable is the condescanding attitude of some senior members around here whose "contributions" largely revolve around:
(1) questioning the point/purpose of topics.
(2) implying other posters' lack of experience/ignorance

Right on, Brent.
That's usually how fighting starts.
However, it always takes two to tango.

Look - stick to the subject and don't go O/T. I am sure you can find a forum somewhere else to talk about dancing. This is the sort of thing that provokes an argument here.

So true... Cameras are not really made for left-eyed people either.

What does the red X mean? Banned or is it probation or something like that?

Yeah, especially with the older 2-stroke advance cameras and us left-eyed users. The goal was not to poke one's eye.

Well I'm sure he'll be using an alias soon He's been doing that for quite some time now and I guess he deserves it. Now I'll probably never use that report button again hahahaha

Lefties are under represented in prison populations; felonious crimes (murders, rape, and assaults).

They are over represented in populations of actors, artists, corporate CEO's, politicians, physicists, astronauts, fighter pilots, heads of state, writers, Nobel Laureates, poets, etc.

Alexander the Great, Chalemagne, Leonardo da Vinci and Michelangelo were lefties.

Pretty good company, I think.

Oh, one (or two) last things; Amphoteric molecules are mostly left-handed, and the roation of celestial bodies also is primarily left-handed.

Haha! Go lefties! We rule the world (literally) =)
