Only one thing I will miss is the friends here....I think you know how I feel, it means a lot to me to open BP everyday and talk to you everyday, and how it has been inspired me and motivated me to be a better photographer......I thank you so very much for that!! Kumiko

I decided NOT to renew my membership, NOT to spend any more money on BP. The biggest reasons are Unfairness and Tastelessness of the contest judgement and I won't let it discourage me.
There are so many members at BP, therefore the chances to win are very small. If it is the fact, also the chances that the same people win over and over should be VERY VERY small, too. So?? What's going on here ar BP is very very FUNNY.
But this is the sad part.....Because I don't agree with the BP business, I have to lose friends I made here.
You guys are the best thing ever happened! I think you know how I feel, it means a lot to me to open BP everyday and talk to you everyday, and how it has been inspired me and motivated me to be a better photographer...!! I thank you so very much for that, but/and I don't want to end the friendship.
