Is EEVBlog worth it

Dave, again, please please don’t take this utter nonsense topic to heart; you’re just marvellous; you can’t please all the people all of the time.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Dave, so we’ve worked out that to hear your voice at what would be considered “normal” pitch, compared to “most”(?) men, we’re to talk to you right after you’ve just woken up? It doesn’t sound like you - doesn’t sound like “Our Dave” (spoken in a Yorkshire accent 😁) but we all sound like that at times. Lol.

To be honest, I like your voice how it is. You’re a really lovely bloke and it’s your signature - it’s unique and part of who you are. Anyone who mocks you is a little immature or just rude, as it’s a nice attribute and makes you stand out - in a GOOD way. Yes, when I first came across you, years ago, it surprised me, but I’ve got used to it and you’re like an old friend who I always want to return back home to go and see, because you’re a chirpy and jolly chap. Wouldn’t have you any other way; it’s how you were made old bean.

I think I’ve said this before: I’ve been watching you so many years now, that sentimental feelings have had time to form - memories of where I was and when, when I watched X video of you doing Y thing, and that’s really nice; sentimentality is an emotional bond and makes one attached to a person or thing.

Blessings. :)

I would agree that much of the "information" found on any Internet discussion forum is worthless, but there's also a lot of helpful information to be found as well. Sorting the wheat from the chaff is the hard part.

I would also agree that someone working professionally in the industry probably has other sources of information and knowledge and doesn't need to get answers from Internet forums, but also keep in mind that many of the participants on this forum are amateurs without formal training and the information they find here is often a useful starting point.

They don’t sound like they know what a blog IS. A blog is an abbreviation of “weB LOG”, and the one running the blog is Dave, so I’m not sure how this person thinks we FORUM members can be “members of the blog” - the forum members get to socialise and to discuss *Dave’s* blog entries and videos

A pedantic but technically correct distinction.

I once got a ticket for driving in a bus lane, despite my not being anywhere near the city involved. They supplies a photo as proof, which did indeed show a car with my registration number. A trivial check would have shown that my vehicle was a motorcycle, so plainly not the thing they'd snapped. Nevertheless, despite pointing that out to them several times, I only got it resolved by going to a local court to state under oath that it was not me driving that car, honest your honour.

If I took any this to heart I would not have lasted 12 years in this game.
