Sep 23 05 05:29 pm Link ahmed87 wrote: That is so true WTF Sep 25 05 09:05 am Link I say WTF every time I view a picture and look at some of the comments below. People commenting crudely on anatamical parts and making pitches and sexual advances towards models? WTF? Models are employees and co-workers! Make those comments at your day job and see if you do get slapped with a hand and a harrassment suit! The next WTF are some of the criticisms. I rarely see the need to, or the right to, negatively criticize another's work. One problem with arbitrarily viewing and criticizing another's work is that one does not know the other's customer base. There are photos that make you say 'WOW!' and others that do not do anything for you. But that is individual taste. You know who the real, justified critics are? The customer. You can do fantastic work and be a starving artist. You can do critically mediocre work and buy a masion if people are buying your stuff. It is like the movie critics. They regularly pan movies that become block busters. And they praise movies that would put you to sleep. In my opinion, portfolios that bring home the bacon are the best. WTF are the rest? Third WTF: Models telling me their relationship or financial problems. WTF? Sep 25 05 10:01 am Link Lydia M wrote: My reaction was not so much WTF as it was "Oh my God!".

Sep 25 05 10:51 am Link megafunk wrote: Gottenhimmel...wtf!? LOL Sep 25 05 12:58 pm Link the really bad photographers that assume you are pointing them out when you mention bad photography in general...there are a few that follow my posts and the minute I say something like "I would like to rid the net of crappy photos" just ASSUME I'm talking about them and so they come back all defensive.. If anyone assumes they are the target of "bad photography" remarks when their name is not mentioned ...well they probably are pretty bad...LOL! Sep 25 05 01:05 pm Link WTF when I see some of the sort of crude comments some alleged "Professional" photographers make on a models pictures. Also comments some alleged "professional" photographers make about women: I.E. "Anything with two tits and a hole" / " I know when a vagina stinks", I would never work with a photographer who behaves in such a poor and totally unprofessional way in a public arena. They forget this is a means for them to advertise and that sort of advertising does them no good what-so-ever. Kind of makes me wonder what motives some have for photographing women, esspecially when they take topless / nude pics... Pervert is one word that comes to mind for some of them.

Sep 25 05 02:00 pm Link MHana wrote: WTF WTF WTF Sep 25 05 02:04 pm Link the ratio of posts to respodants in the new members area. Sep 25 05 02:47 pm Link Yet another photographer just started yet another thread asking "how do I get in Playboy?" https://modelmayhem.com/posts.php?thread_id=12412 Instead of using search on the Forums and typing in Playboy, that would be way tooooooooo hard. That makes me say "WTF", how many times are we going to answer the stupid Playboy question...... WTF Sep 25 05 04:27 pm Link jeff s wrote: WFT is up with people who don't know the difference between a photographer and a model? Sep 25 05 04:38 pm Link a model stopped emailing when she found out I was( gasp) 45 years old- where did she think 25 years exp. came from? thanks for letting me get that out. Sep 25 05 04:44 pm Link Why have a photo from a phone cam and claim you been modeling for 5 years? Sep 25 05 04:47 pm Link brigette putnam wrote: If they're like me, it's because there are so many trite photos on both model and photographer profiles here that it becomes painful at times. (Note that this isn't a stab at MM, but probably an assumption I would have about any venue that is this open.) Sep 25 05 05:25 pm Link Brian Diaz wrote: Stupid bastard, that guy should be shot.... Sep 25 05 06:06 pm Link When people make MORE threads about bringing escorts/boyfriends/mothers/frogs to shoots. WTF. The political threads here also make me go WTF. Sep 25 05 07:21 pm Link When some dick hacks into the site and creates unnecessary work for Tyler. WTF!!!!!! Oct 01 05 03:43 pm Link I know what is good and what isnt. I could careless about anyone else that does or doesnt. Oh I forgot... "WTF?" Oct 01 05 03:54 pm Link When I see some people on MM, a networking site on the Internet, operating in a vacuum/silo/tribe mentality. In other words, they question 'friend requests'. Not that I know of any that questioned mine. Some of the comments I've seen on other ports regarding adding/accepting friend requests makes me say WTF, because friend requests are to every MM member like exchanging links are for websites. It's beneficial for everyone, including visitors to the site. Me personally, I accept all requests. Even if I don't know them personally. I see it as a genuine attempt to be my friend. If they don't msg me first, or at all, I take it as they are shy to initiate communications. When I have the time, I'll take the first step, let them know I'm approachable. It's not rocket science people. Just because we're older, expanding your circle of friends online or not, should not be rocket science. Keep it simple like it used to be when we were kids meeting up at the neighborhood playground. Oct 01 05 04:05 pm Link KM von Seidl wrote: Just out of curiosity, was this in reference to me? I think i wrote something like that down and i've only been doing this since february. Oct 01 05 04:09 pm Link I shot my first model in February, too. Oct 01 05 04:31 pm Link WTF - WHY the fuck do people post on the forum to ask stupid questions that they already know the answer to? dont these people have any "common sense?" Oct 01 05 08:20 pm Link WTF ?????? Oct 01 05 08:22 pm Link Rik Myers wrote: Word!

Please tell me you are kidding.... hahahahah Oct 02 05 09:49 am Link I was actually going to comment...but WTF...nothing really bothers me here!!! It's really just a grain of sand in the scheme of things. How can a website, or a part of it, really be annoying to anyone. BUT, I did enjoy reading everyone elses critiques!

Oct 02 05 10:45 am Link When photographers post pictures on their site that isn't theirs! It obviously stands out from their other ameteur posts and they take it down when they get called out by everyone that happens to know who that pic belongs to. Then, since they can't stop you from calling them a fraud on all their tags, they email you saying "They are sorry they shouldn't have posted it, they posted it because they liked it and didn't think everyone would assume it was taken by him" WTF??? I didn't see a caption under the picture saying "A picture I admire but did not have ANYTHING to do with!" I didn't see him say anything when 16 people commented on how much they love his work (that wasn't his) and how much of a great photographer he is. WTF! wtF! WTF! wtF! WTF! wtF! WTF! wtF! WTF! wtF! WTF! wtF! Oct 02 05 11:20 am Link Chili wrote: don't you know the answer to that question. Oct 02 05 11:33 am Link Nat wrote: Any post by Marksora. Nothing against the guy, but everything he writes sounds like gibberish to me, leading me to think, "WTF?" Is it just me? Oct 02 05 07:32 pm Link Models who list working at Hooters in the credits section of their portfolios. WTF? Oct 02 05 09:25 pm Link Tracey Masterson wrote: HAHAHAHA!!! Go Tracey!
