Your innuendo in that thread left no question what you were referring to. And there was no respect involved.
One's personal beliefs ought be just that: personal. Where they involve lack of respect for other humans, they should not, in my opinion, be included in discussions here. That's why I started this "Feedback" thread.
The line needs to be defined by the forum's rules. This thread suggests a refinement of "the line" or elimination of The Lounge. Neither are "on the fly." Both will be considered by the site's owner and the moderators, then rejected or, in some form, implemented.
The thread in question comes off as bashing someone in transition. Photography appeared to be a pretext for doing that in this forum. To the extent that photography was involved, it wasn't large format photography. I'm more and more convinced that The Lounge isn't an appropriate forum category.
I agree it should have been closed earlier. A lot earlier.
