Hi Boris !

>Jaume, I most respectfully disagree with you.

Sure...but I don't think that we disagree that much.

Well, my sentence wasn't too fortunate now that I read it again. After all, 
probably the easier way to be happy is to have little needs, so people has 
learned to just use their tools and don't be tortured by further features (that 
are not really key for what they do). So the word resignation doesn't reflect 
this at all.

posted to the list - it gets very thorough and extremely useful set of 
answers. Thus, the only thing the prospective newcomer has to do is to 
overcome their shyness. The rest will really be extremely easy.

Sure that's what I said. that I know that this is a great place but that it may 
not seem so sometimes.

>Yes, there're other places. This one is still my favorite by a huge margin.

For me it has important asset. Even after having being a quite silent member, I 
know many people, I have bought and sold lots of equipment without problems(*), 
I have had extremely interesting private emails about diverse themes, even I 
met a member personally when he visited my town...
It is just that, when some kind of questions, themes, other forum threads...are 
posted, the number of replies compared to others leads to an underlying message 
such as 'this is no longer the place to discuss this'. And this is what I don't 
like, because I know and trust the people here, I would like to keep talking 
about those things here.

Hey, but not a big deal...as I said, it was my eloquent day so I decide to take 
advantage and practice my English writing instead of only reading... ;-)

(*) Well, there was a lens that had to come back home but I don't consider it a 
problem since we managed to share the looses and this lead to interesting OT 
conversations...oh, you see? private messages again ;-)
