    Thanks for the info about ignoring the Lounge -- for now, anyway, I have it on ignore...though I doubt that I can refrain from checking in on it occasionally.

    Eventually, you'll forget it's even there, and you won't miss it.

    "Eventually, you'll forget it's even there, and you won't miss it".

    I forgot it was there, but I just had a peek - and man, am I glad I block it !

    I too would prefer to associate with a forum where such discussion is disallowed entirely - so that it doesn't have to be blocked.

    Surely there must be many other public venues for discussion of subjects not only unrelated to Large Format Photography, but Photography itself.

    I have had the lounge on ignore for several years. However this thread caused me to have a peek. What I discovered was, that some of the folks who used to make helpful contributions related to large format photography, are now living in the lounge. That is their choice, but I think the forum suffers from their abscence.

    What could possibly tempt you to read anything in the Lounge? I turned it off within the first month it became available. Even in that short a time it was too disappointing to observe how abysmally ignorant and biased some very fine photographers are about matters unrelated to photography. I really don't even understand why the Lounge exists but that's a question for minds and powers greater than mine.

    Before you criticize someone, walk a mile in their shoes. That way when you do criticize them you'll be
    a mile away and you'll have their shoes.

    It exists (as an experiment) because all of that "stuff" used to insinuate itself into discussions in the core forums. There are, however, on-going discussions about the matter among the moderators.
