Maybe a condition of access to the bargains section could include a mandatory purchase of a D70 users T shirt in addition to the 30 posts minimum. This would indicate some kind of comittment to maintaining the group experience and to belonging in general.
Interesting thought, Graham, but I'm not into trying to tell people how they should spend their $$$$.
We just had dinner at a Korean restaurant in Waikiki, and I was outraged that, for a party of two, this place had the temerity to add the gratuity to the bill before giving it to me.
Then, in the credit card charge, they placed the total (including their pre-ordained gratuity) as the total amount of the meal charge, leaving the tip section vacant, awaiting, seemingly, a further tip.
Lucky for them I'm in a good mood this evening ....
bago100 wrote:Gary - your post shows the wisdom of always checking bills from restaurants (hotels too) before making payment.
Tourists are always good rip off targets. They are on holiday, they spend, they get drunk and they drop their guard. Silly really. They even ask strangers to watch their baggage etc while they go to the bathroom or somewhere nearby. Crazy stuff.

I see far more posts of people discussing photographic subjects, techniques, and image criticisations than I do for cheap equipment and I feel that that's a positive point.

Seems to be fine here in Waikiki.

That's very well...but when the earth trembles and shakes...and civilization as we know it is no more...then don't come crawling to me for a bite of my Mars Bar. Don't ask me for a loan of my Swiss Navy knife or my Silva compass or my perpetual fire lighter. Survival favours the prepared.

Well from a newb's POV, to be eligible for the member's benefits, this can be quite an ask... without posting dribble.

Yes, a Pentax SF-7, Minolta 303si and then a 404si after the 303 was drowned by that damned blowhole at Bicheno TAS. Only entry level SLRs, but did the job and were fun to use.

Which probably means that you have some images that you scan and post ...

Which was exactly my point.

My reply is:
""" Sorry I don't have a scanner" and " Does anyone has the scanner which I can borrow?""

Here's a typical thread:

I wish to reply to it with useful information (I have that lens) yet I am uncapable of doing such?
Why?
