there is no more passion in lighting gallery, It's all about greed and wanting something now days. I've been on LG for a while now and it has just gotten really bad.  Back in the day it used to be awesome, everyone would get along there was no arguing about pictures. Everything Has Changed,I don't feel welcomed here anymore. The good quality photos aren't getting enough attention people who actually take time in to making a post and they get nothing. And all you see is pictures of LED lights getting the most attention or some picture of a brand new fluorescent tube. Or some picture of just something really boring.  there's also all these little kids begging for light fixtures, and others getting offended (butthurt) because someone bought a fixture on eBay that they were watching and they didn't get to it in time. also there's certain people on the website who have overinflated egos acting like they know everything, And it takes the experience away from the website. LG has lost a lot of good members because of this. (...) one last thing I would like to address is the choice of admins here. I feel like the administrators don't do a great job defending this site. like I said before, there's a lot of blurry pictures that the admins just do nothing about. in My opinion, this website should be free from LED or just and not shove down our throats.

Thank you for your input.  Be aware I have edited out a couple of sentences which mentioned a specific member's behavior.  As I've stated in the past, if you are going to provide feedback, you may do so, but you cannot single out a specific member.  If we were to allow members to voice complaints about each other out in the open, then the subjects of the complaints will wish defend themselves, and the typical result is counterproductive bickering.  Therefore, if you have concerns about a specific individual, please send those to the admins in private.

Thank you for the two years. (F20T12)

I know, i have felt like leaving LG a few times too. but i eventually just managed to stay here. Yeah, i can agree with you on the fact that all i see now here is occasionally a fluorescent or two and even occasionally an HID fixture as well. but it is mostly incandescent or L*D

yeah.. if you want to get in touch with me here's the link to my Discord server https://discord.gg/R7TYpJWy9J

Ok! sure will!

after much thought I have decided to give lighting Gallery a second chance.
