I think growth is a good thing, but sometimes I do feel that this place moves to fast. I'm one of those new guys, so I'm a contributer to that myself. I always try to checkout and reply to as many topics that I can provide a relevant reply to, but sometimes it's just a little to much. Especially when I'd rather be taking photos!

I totally agree myself. Except I usually find it more annoying than saddening. I often close the tab when I stumble upon a topic that the poster is whining about not having a better camera and how their picture would be so much better if they did. Even worse is when it becomes apparent they haven't even read their camera's manual. How can anybody expect to even begin to learn the operations of a DSLR when they can't even take the time to learn how to use the point and shoot they already have?
