I think this is a great move by the forums.
In all fairness it doesn't matter how the change is brought about, as long as the change is made. When it becomes a problem to a rapidly growing site and nothing is done about it, it's bound to cause trouble and unrest.
Where you get trouble and unrest you very rarely see people being diplomatic, but i guess maybe i'm the one guilty here of being untolerable,.
After all I don't mind stepping forward and claiming the "hollow" victory. Contrary to what you might believe dave, I don't wallow in this one bit, I find it sad that it had come to this to make the change.
Hopefully those that take the time to capture the perfect true shot will have their coverage on the pages where it should be (stormer & luis) being two members i can think of.. I'm certain there are more people.. yourself included that will benefit from it.. and those wanting to browse collection pictures will also find their images in the right section where people who actually want to see them will get the chance to look at them as well.
You see unlike everyone else I sworn I wouldn't return back to JD, albeit i did earlier in a small capacity i only posted to help out a well known friend here..
I intend to see my promise through.. I maybe untolerable and I maybe non-diplomatic.. but I for one am definately sure to see that promise through so i wont be a beneficiary of what has changed.
Kindest regards
Richard
