Maybe I have a problem with English being my first language but I would think to be "obtuse" would be to not understand the difference between "shooting with a camera" and "complain about not having a camera."
Are you saying the cinematography forum is for those who shoot with a BMD camera and those without should post here?
1) Cinematography is about the art of film making and not a camera So the forum is wrongly named whatever way you look at it.
2)Before any cameras came out at all the Cinematography forum was being used So was not made for shooters only.
3)Cinematography forum became a meeting place for all and allowed as such by mods.
But I do understand. And so do you, Marc. You know perfectly well what the rules of the forum are and I'm supremely confident you have an understanding of the "your house, your rules" policy.
While it is BMD's forum It has been set up to promote BMD and for information It is a two way street
A FORUM is expected to be have a free and fair dialogue either way If BMD are at fault say for example with delays and not informing people why then they should address those issues. That is what a forum is for. Maybe you believe a forum is only positive about BMD and anything else censored? It could then no longer be called a forum. Maybe better for BMD to do away with the forum and instead just write an article?
You know how this company deals with stuff but for some reason you choose to disregard it and stir the pot at every possible opportunity. You can't wait for someone to have a complaint or a problem with the company so you give it a little dig between the ribs and chime in with your passive aggressive snide remarks.
That is your assessment of someone on this forum and therefore subjective.
I consider it psychopathic behavior. And I would not think of you as psychotic but I do see an online personality who is only on this forum to insult others (albeit in extremely well veiled tones) and flame bad feelings for this company.
I consider this to be flaming and inflammatory Especially calling someone psychotic who disagree with you.
But I apologize if I'm just not "getting" you.
Have you got your camera?
See, I can do passive aggression as well.
I wouldn't say you are passively aggressive more obtuse, aggressive and insulting. At least marc has a sense of humour and a real reason to complain. You're complaint about his complaint to BMD is actually psychotic because you are taking up the companies position in favour of your own (Split personality) Also you don't recognise any wrong doing on BMD's part re a complete lack of information.
