I think it's about time that people who are going to post on the
discussion-groups, get tested on how thick their nerves are. Your's are
apparently very thin and you should not be allowed access to the
discussion-groups yet ;-)
Look mister anonymous, you will meet here all kind of people. The last
thing you should do is get into a fit of a bunch of text aimed at you. If
you are sensitive to that, being here is not such a good idea. Best is to
count to 1000, before you post a reply. There are some people who can write
in such a way that it can sound very insulting to the untrained eye, but
they don't mean anything with that. Sometimes words used in one country,
can be offensive in another. Tell an Australian he is a "bastard" and he
will have a good laugh at it. Tell it an American and you get bashed-up.
See what I mean? Don't take this here too serious. It's not worth the
heart-attack.
I respect Spex more than I do you. I haven't seen anything useful or
constructive posted from you here, so for me you are a normal poster, who I
do not disrespect, but "let be". ok? If you want my respect, or the respect
of a lot of the other posters, don't get into a fit, have a laugh about
what Spex calls you, and write something which is useful for all of us. You
will do humanity a much greater favour, than whinging about that someone
called you an idiot (or whatever).
>You are pardoned, Everyone is IGNORANT before they learn.
Very true. Me too. There is many things I know jack about. Don't ask me
anything about cars. I will give you a dumb, blank stare :-))
> I've done tons
>(many many hours) of web searching, not having an video specific or
>technical video experience (Yes there are actually people on this planet who
>are not video experts)
There are plenty of them here, who ask questions, which all the experts are
happy to answer. All free of will, and without getting paid for it.

Of course I have been in such a situation. Who hasn't? But the tone of some
of your posts, wasn't really in your favour. it made you look as if you
didn't understand any of the matter at all, and just responded to what was
written about it, instead of researching what was said, and then ask some
more questions.
There is a lot to know about video, and most of us are satisfied to know
the basics.

I wouldn't care if someone insults me. It's not worth getting into a fit
for :-D As I said before, what for one is an insult, is a compliment for
another.

You can defend yourself if you get beaten up with fists ;-) Calling around
here saying "blablabla has insulted me, and now I feel very hurt", won't do
you really much good. Maybe it's off your chest, but that's the only thing
you gain with it.
Really, trust me, I am sure we have been all around this block one time...
don't ge into a fit what someone says about you. They don't know you, so
they can't judge you, and it's just fodder then. Just, get it off your
back. Forget about it, and carry on learing about video, instead of getting
upset every time you see "Spex" appearing on your screen :-))
cheers
