Hi Pro Image,
I would like to thank and praise you for your politely tactful response. I think you led the shiniest example in this discussion since I made my comments. :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
I also like another statement you wrote about the trip participants (or CS users) being there (or here) to learn. Life is a path of continuous learning, and only the ignorantly arrogant will say that they know all.
I'm NOT an expert (as you persist in calling me), I'm here to learn as well. We all learn by exchanging ideas, knowledge and opinions.
I'm also glad that Canonised and others could see some validity with my comments. I hoped I didn't play those comments on the wrong tune but it may have landed on some ears (eyes) thinking I'm a case of sour grapes. I contributed those well-meaning comments for your reflection and improvement.
I agree that 1 CS user may have been too harsh with his words :nono: , and I can understand the strong displeasure of another CS user with him (and maybe with me).
From what I read, trip participants have voiced their satisfaction with the trip. Having tasty food, affordable alcohol, and shot a couple of pretty gals on foreign soil at a wallet-friendly price, what's there to complain?
From a certain aspect, the trip was a success then.
