scottknudsen Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 There used to be a Wall of Shame forum where photographers could post about their bad experiences with retail companies. I cannot find that forum anymore. Does anyone know what became of it? Thanks. ScottK 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDMvW Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 I remember what must have been a different "wall of shame" site- the one I dimly remember was aimed at bad-actor photographers such as examples of insensitive pictures, theft of images, and such like. People did used to post HERE on bad experiences with vendors and such like, but that seems to have disappeared in the present litigious environment.

JDMvW Posted January 12, 2021 Share Posted January 12, 2021 Bill had a big influence on me, I admit, though we agreed on little but the necessity for making trouble. In my circle, we always thought that there was some ambiguity in his first book's title God and Man at Yale (1951), about which one Bill thought he was. Other than you and William F. Buckley, no one in my reading has used the word litigious. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terrykelly Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 I've had bad experiences with Dell, having entirely to do with poor quality telephone responses both technically and due to the most extreme subcontinent accents I've ever found over the past twenty or so years.

May say as much about your reading as anything else. A whole lot of reading I've done, whether around the Internet, in newspapers, or in various books, talk about what a litigious society we've become. It's a rather common word , one Buckley likely wouldn't have paid more than two cents for. In terms of Buckley's more expensive words ... I AM LAPIDARY BUT NOT ERISTIC WHEN I USE BIG WORDS 1 "You talkin' to me?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScottK You and I are almost the same “photo.net age”, and yes; I remember the original Photo.net had a review sort-of-thing. I don’t know what became of it.
