Wow! I didn't realize you'd been doing this for a full year, Karen. Well done, and thanks again!

You've been a bit of a negative-nellie in a couple of threads now. What's going on?

It happens:) Certains members appear in all these sort of lists. The rest of us just make up the numbers. I just live with it:))

hm.

While I do agree that a lot of over-the-top backstroking goes on around here, I really don't think that this can be categorized in that nature. This is a great effort by one person to put a photographer per week in the public eye. She's very adept at choosing a wide range of personalities and styles and is good at picking people from both the depths of obscurity and the ones that are very popular.

If you're unhappy with certain aspects of the site, why not work more pro-actively, instead of just going around leaving little cryptic remarks to people? That's definitely a one-way ticket to a suspension, IMO. I don't really have many suggestions for you right now, other than taking a little break or finding what is pleasing to you and focusing on that, but slagging on others for their hard work is hardly going to further your opinions.

Whilst I normally refrain from these debates I would fully support K10Guy's observation that Karen has chosen a wide range of people / style / ability, and it is entirely to her credit that she has put so much hard work in to chosing an eclectic mix rather than just plump for 'big names'.
05/31/2009 05:38:50 PM · #13
I agree. My inclusion is proof that she chooses the obscure as well as the well-known :)
(And who can't use a little back-stroking now and then? I know I sure can!)
05/31/2009 05:41:32 PM · #14
its only an observation that if you look at the OP you will find that total number of names to be fraction of site's total member names.
But when i read them i kinda know almost all the names.
These are the names i read in other threads too like - posthumous ... , OOBIE ... etc etc (i have stopped counting).
So i personally just peek into thread and get back to my life. I usually know the names thread going to mention.

(i think if i said anything more i will be hunted :-D ) so ignore me and continue with whatever you guys are doing.

05/31/2009 05:51:09 PM · #15
I think what Karen is doing is great because I get to know the works of members that I may not normally seek out. The variety of the members chosen is good.
As for the backstroking...we all need a little encouragement sometimes and this is a nice bit of backstroking. Some appreciate the "validation" if you will.

Jan, I love looking through your profile looking at the stuff you shoot! It's very edgy and different, which I like. AND...I'm not picking on you..but you do have some thank you's on your profile page listing all of the awards people here have given you for your shots. :) That, too, is a bit of backstroking for you, no?. ; ) HUGS!!

I like the fact that Karen saved me the work of having to look so hard to see new stuff!! :P

05/31/2009 05:52:00 PM · #16
I would agree that I know a lot of names (generally) from reading various threads - but I certainly didn't know what their work looked like and it has been a pleasure putting pictures to names.

nothing wrong in familiar names though, i feel that after awhile it kinda gets boring.
I used to think that when there is thread name 'member of the week' i might see someone whose name i have hardly seen before (or never seen) and by seeing his/her work, i could jump out of chair and say - wow where have you been.
There are many talented members on dpc, who are either inactive or have left this site.

Anyway these side activities are good. And these are the fun and joy of dpc forums.

I check out member of the week once in a while. I just saw one winner from awhile back. This member has never taken a comment from me or others that have contacted me without a pm or reply that screams "how dare you leave a bad comment"!

Member of the week for this person should be stripped.

I dare not key the name for fear of being beat down like a dog.

Ya know...it's a shame that something good on this site always seems to draw negative comments. Yes, not everyone is perfect, but the members are picked for the sake of showcasing work many may not have looked at.

For example, I was actually chosen a couple of weeks ago. (Yes, I know..why me..but it was a HUGE honor to ME!) During that week, I had very few people look at my profile and even fewer comment in the thread. Not sure I would call that back stroking or a popularity contest, but the gesture to show my work was much appreciated. I've had all of 12,600 people stop by my profile in 4 years and if I didn't participate in threads like "Humorous Title" or "Photo Domino", I'd probably have less than half the profile visits I do. There is effort being put forth to make this site more engaging and I think Karen deserves a little credit.

BTW, I'm not calling anyone out on this, just an observation from the thread.

wow the bickering reminds me of the 4yr olds I watch all day.

Karen I appreciate your hard work! and I appreciate your MOTW because it gives me a chance to check our portfolios I might not check out otherwise.

For those who can't find it above, maybe the very best of them all.

You can add me to the list of people who truly appreciate the efforts you put into the MOTW karennfld.

I know that I look forward to the nominations and really appreciate having the opportunity to view the images contained on the profiles.

For those who view this effort in a negative light, perhaps a review of Matthew 7:3 might be in order.

Just a thought,

Ray

You guys are quoting Bible verses on arguments that are over three years old...
09/30/2013 09:51:20 PM · #25
Am I the only person who does not see what the big deal is?

This isn't the 9th grade where you have to like everything I like or we aren't friends anymore...

There are people here with whom I get along quite well. A few others, not so much. If Karen chooses to recognize the work of the latter, it is her business. And certainly not my place to critique her choices. Nor do I think that prerogative lies with others.

She provides a positive service for the rest of the membership. I wish everyone did. (That includes me too...)
