Who's all still posting here?
Is that you, fair master?
>>4491093Just came by to see if anyone is still around. I've seen you and Sugar pop their heads up the couple times I've lurked.I miss Miki like you wouldn't believe and still have his photos framed in one of my rooms.
>>4491090wow long time no seeit's basically just Burt and Sugar for OG posters, with some new people like doghair and corgifag
>>4491096my frame of reference for OG is like Bass, 5hoe, Photoshop, Burke, Isi, etc
>>4491097Go older. Pour one out for AC, Depressed Cheesecake, Pig, AncientPanda, RSIM, and Aslan.
>>4491096>>4491098I'd be really interested in what Rubber goo, miki, d, and nouveau are up to. I swear i saw the latter post a thread here not too too long ago.Back when I had social media I remember 5hoe got big into drone stuff and charlie was doing some sort of podcast or something.I know there's a lot of people I'm forgetting, but way back when /p/ had the coolest community on the chans.
>>4491098Some sound familiar, I was mostly active 2010-2015, then came back in 2020
>>4491100>Rubber goo, d, and nouveauDefinitely remember these5hoe was the only one I ever met IRL, and he's still just doing his thing + teaching + family now
>>4491100The attitude has changed a lot. When I came in (2008ish?) Criticism was far more regular and aggressive - but in a way, helpful. You learned more quickly because people pointed out little mistakes and tore you a new arsehole for it. It was a way funnier board. Partly because moderation was far less strict. Comedic threads were regular. Posting gifs and funny images was far less regulated. Now its okay for dumping stuff to see what people think, but very few people try to make fun out of anything.
I'm still here
>>4491090>all the namefagsyou'd be better off on some boomer forum like dpreview, retard
Do newfags really think namefags indicate oldfag status? Holy shit this site has gone downhill
>>4491108Sybau.
>>4491108You say that like it's a bad thing. Have you seen the state of this site? There's nothing entertaining, informative, or worthwhile being posted. If you haven't been here since the 2000s and are clinging to the past like me, I can't imagine why you would waste your time here.
>>4491112I've shifted to lurking FM instead when I want to see varieties of genuine example pics and practical gear discussionsEven their threads on stuff like "3d pop" is worlds better than anything herep has sucked for a decent while
>>4491113Huskyfag, cinefag, and cANON are all FM posters and they’re all cagey about posting good photos because they lead back to their FM accounts lolFM schizos are the problem here. Full frame supremacist, pixel tech overanalyzing, 3d pop tonality theorycrafting, DSLR shilling…
I still lurk. I've been all hands on deck trying to save my business, trucking is rough right now and I'm not making any money and working 90 hours a week. I haven't really shot anything all year other than Bonneville. I haven't been home other than for a week to do legal shit and keep my head above water.
>>4491130also new captcha sucks dick2025 has been the most crippling depression I have ever experienced in my adult life and I actually considered an hero but too many people depend on me and I can't leave them high and dry.some day I'll be shooting again like I used to, but right now it's just all hands on deck to try to make a buck. was good seeing you again, I hope life treats you well. don't forget us.
You can do it, Sugar.
>>4491130Say no the cheap freight and stop picking up stupid dumbass loads then. But actually, just hang in there buddy.
>>4491131Keep up the good work shug. Don't merk yourself, make things change. Don't let the bastards grind you down.
>>4491127>Huskyfag, cinefag, and cANON are all FM postersSo they're schizo's from FM that need somewhere to be retarded anonymously? That honestly makes perfect sense to me, now it's headcanon>>4491131Hang in there friend, you're one of my favorites here
>>4491133It's starting to turn around, a lot of the fraud and cheap foreigners are being rooted out and the industry is squeezing out all the people who can't hack it. If I stick it out long enough we'll be fine. I had my first 3 dollar/mile load all year a couple weeks ago so it's coming around, it just takes time. Fuel is coming down I just need my insurance to get cheaper. >>4491137>>4491135>>4491132I didn't mean to thread hijack but thanks guys, I'm not going anywhere. I'm glad to see pant5uit back I really loved his work, old /p/ was awesome.
Nice to see some oldfags here. I only started coming here seriously around 2018-ish, and I'm sure the place had declined even by then, but lately it has been noticably less friendly and more actively hostile while the passion seems to be slowly dwindling. I'll still drop some photos here, but I know I'll likely lose my patience for this place soon if things don't start looking up.
>>4491137To be fair, huskyfag was at least right about micro four thirds being trash, cANON was right about mirrorless being a downgrade that will eventually hamper stills photography and open the door to AI cameras, and cinefag was right about street photography being a front for talmudic money laundering. Of course cinefag turned out to be the dog fucker In the spirit of every nazi there is hitlerAnd in hitler there is thinking blondi was hotter than eva
>>4491145Pls go
I still lurk periodically if anyone recognizes me from the 06-10 days. I member y'all
>>4491149Has m43 always been so annoying and attention whorish?
