In Ref. to this post.

Not sure if this is the place to talk about this or not but here is:
https://photography-on-the.net/forum/showthre​ad.php?t=281221
I tried to post comments here but I don't have the proper PRIVILEGES to post in this part of the forum?????????
So my thing is don't grip if your not seeing the replies you think you deserve! Because not everyone here can have such a privileges to post in G&N????????? So you will see more views than post here!

I understand I just signed up 3 weeks ago but this is crap. So I guess I’m just left to be seen NOT HEARD…. in G&N anyway..

Sorry for the ranting..:o

Yep, that's the way it is. Read the stickies in that Forum and all will be revealed.

Specifically, this one.

I know I know--------

I just had to say something anyway so others might catch wind of it..

Thanks for the reply..

You were not around when had issues with some people joining, making some rather lewd and unappropriate comments in this forum. They had to do something to maintain the atmosphere that we are accustomed to here.

I think that the posters in G&N realize that those outside of the eligibility can look but not comment. There are many many others that can. Having lots of views and few comments is an old age problem.

Yes, it was getting quite ugly in there for a while. In my non-expert opinion, though, the posting criteria has helped significantly (though there is still the occasionaly juvenile response to some photos). Members who have a serious interest in posting in the glamour section and are able to show their intent to the moderations have been able to get early posting permissions, so I think it's quite a fair and reasonable limitation.
