wparsonsgisnet Posted April 27, 2007 Share #1 Posted April 27, 2007 Advertisement (gone after registration) I have been following the view-count since we poor M8 users were consigned to a subforum, when we obviously own the Forum. At first, the M8 subf. count was very low, in my eyes merely reflecting confusion on the part of this sacrosanct group. Following the movement of all the thread, so that the intellectually limited among us (again, self included) could NOT post in the DigiForum, there have continued to be more viewers in the DigiForum than in the M8 Subforum. There may be double counting here, because we brilliant and good-looking M8 users might be in either site -- but, wait for it, we can't be in both places at the same time (not for carbon-based life forms in this universe of limited dimension). How come all those other people could be right? What's fair about that? Nertz. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Advertisement Posted April 27, 2007 Posted April 27, 2007 Hi wparsonsgisnet, Take a look here Come-uppance for whingers, self included. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
DaveEP Posted April 27, 2007 Share #2 Posted April 27, 2007 Given that this is a 'sub-forum' we must be in the digital forum by default. .... no? So double counting seems likely..... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
fjmcsu Posted April 27, 2007 Share #3 Posted April 27, 2007 I too have been "double dipping", especially when the forum first split us out.Hopefully no accountants or watchdogs are looking! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riley Posted April 28, 2007 Share #4 Posted April 28, 2007 FWIW you are counted twice, once in digital and once in M8 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mitchell Posted April 28, 2007 Share #5 Posted April 28, 2007 I missed the debate on the M8 subforum. So for what it's worth, I would like to say how annoying I find the addition of the M8 subforum. Before I could find everything I wanted in one place with an occasional cruise into the photo section. Now I have to waste time navigating to two sections. The forum is already time consuming enough. I will now have to pick between sections and miss some stuff. Chow, Mitchell Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
rob_x2004 Posted April 28, 2007 Share #6 Posted April 28, 2007 Still members of your brethren who by design or default post to the bright side. I wonder whether some understand which side of their cameras has the lens, which the viewfinder. Photography is so damned complicated isnt it.

Guest sirvine Posted April 29, 2007 Share #7 Posted April 29, 2007 Advertisement (gone after registration) Ugh, who knew the rob_x2004's of the world were so bitter? I was just pleased to find a group of people who knew what they were talking about. I had no idea there were Leicasonic and DMR lurkers seething in the background. I guess some of us owe them an apology or something... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wparsonsgisnet Posted April 29, 2007 Author Share #8 Posted April 29, 2007 Who ARE these other people on our forum? I am getting accustomed to it. I notice an M8 posting in the "other" Digital forum, today. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

earleygallery Posted April 29, 2007 Share #10 Posted April 29, 2007 Well this is a perfect example of why an M8 forum makes sense; http://www.leica-camera-user.com/leica-m8-forum/23008-wouldnt-you-know.html Absolutely not 'digital photography' but totally M8 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaapv Posted April 29, 2007 Share #11 Posted April 29, 2007 Nice that the M8 forum appears as a separate forum in the International User forum now! But somehow it doubles up with the Digital Forum in the "last post" column. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sdai Posted April 29, 2007 Share #12 Posted April 29, 2007 Nice that the M8 forum appears as a separate forum in the International User forum now! But somehow it doubles up with the Digital Forum in the "last post" column. It's that only the database index makes it look that way, the M8 sub-forum is still nested within the Digital mother forum. But this doesn't matter, I'm already getting used to the current setup. To be honest, I've long been fed up with those "How can I get Leica color from the Digilux 2?" or "Aperture Hacks for DNG" type of threads. A dedicated forum for the M8 is undoubtedly much better.

waterlenz Posted April 29, 2007 Share #14 Posted April 29, 2007 I see still see M8 threads in the non-M8 digital forum; so what is the use of having a separate one? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
