    "A forum I recently joined required you to do some basic math to join (square root of 41) and (68 squared) etc.
    That's a good way to weed out spam bots and such"

    Yep

    That wasn't the exact one it was something like that but the answer wasn't one that would form a decimal.

    I didn't do the math I just used a calculator, the point was it was written out without the symbols and then given a box (I think it was signing up for luminous landscape) to fill the answer.

    That's the only comment I have, I can see how other newer members might stay longer if the two sites weren't so different. It took 2 months just for someone to tell me that the "old forum" even existed.

    I know this is OT but the answer has already been given for the OP's question so I figure it's ok to go a little OT since it pertains to this poster
    You're right, discussing another forum is way off topic. But if the mods don't delete these two posts, you should know the "new" Collodion forum never took off. There are only a few dozen members and most have 1-3 posts. You, with 11 posts, are in the top 5, including the admin.

    The "original" Collodion.com has thousands of members and a lot have hundreds or thousands of posts. I don't use that "new" site, and no one else does either. I'll mention to the owner that you want Tapatalk sometime, whatever that is.

    Ah, I see the difficultly with the permission and group issues. You are unable to distinguish rwx within groups. I understand the waiting period now. Thanks for clearing that up.

    Kind of in agreement (me being a n00b to the BOARD, but not to LF photography). I participate in in digital forums like FredMiranda very actively, but my LF stuff takes a bit of time to find resources - but I've known about LFP for over 5 years. I just haven't actively participated, because I'm a bit of a novice in this "realm". But its the same in photography on the whole, and especially in the smaller nieche "elite" parts. I don't even want to go near the Urban Exploration folks - they are worse than this!!! Not everyone breaks out the 8x10 monster day in, day out.
