Posted by EsseXploreR Whats with all the hate people?


All the hate... people... I didn't see any hate... just HM stirring the pot.

I'd feel more welcome by copping some honest ribbing than having people be fake (not saying anyone here was being fake).

I based my original response on the subject title and don't carry an ounce of hate towards the OP, Walmart and its subsidiaries.

Drops microphone, exits stage right.

I wasn't really talking about your response, but the thread was beginning to look like it was in the NE section. Just wouldn't want to see somebody get turned off because of that kind of shit.

Prof. Plum: Sorry if I came off as dickish. When you go back with something other than a cell phone camera, I'll be eagerly awaiting the pictures. I enjoy a good abandoned store, by the way.

Welcome, by the way. I'm the guy who stirs the pot (apparently).

Oh good, my slow clap processor made it into this thing.

My first mine explore was absolutely pathetic. Embarrassing actually. It was a tiny little mine that went back about 100 feet then stopped. There was a broken ladder leading up into the workings but I was too afraid to climb up and look. Sheesh.

Thankfully more explores lead to better skills, and better skills led to better explores. It's a bit of a "chicken and egg" situation, but the more you explore the better you get. Stay after it. (But get a camera from SOMEWHERE.)

Well, the comments are appreciated regardless, thanks for the advice. We're gonna meet tonight to plan things out.


Definitely try to go during the day, even if that's less comfortable for you. Eventually you'll understand the visual importance of natural lighting! I learned to despise flash.

Eh fuck these guys. You did good. My first explores were empty shells of houses in the boondocks.


And this. My first explore was an epic and amazing location. I shot it worse than I'd do with an empty crackhouse today.

^ and this. All very true.

This is one of my first pictures, a hallway in a massive abandoned hospital. This is what my threads used to consist of...

Ahhaha, i just had my first explore a couple months ago and it was basically just a single room. Definitely intensely jealous of your Walmart adventure (never thought I'd be jealous of someone who went to Walmart...) and I can't wait to see more pictures if you go back.

My first thread had thirty different versions of the same terrible shot and then fifty more normally terrible ones.

My first thread was everyone making fun of me for breaking my P&S in a fit of rage.

Look where I am now.

No, not at all. It's not the first time I've been new to a forum. Honestly, thanks for the support.

Haha, oh Walmart..

So far, it's just a matter of the four of us getting the same day off, and we;ve got the rest planned out.

I think you need to find something more interesting than a Walmart.

I think you have no right to say that. What people consider interesting varies. Some people don't have access to hospitals, prisons, etc...

Plus, he already mentioned it wasn't the coolest place.

Edit: Just found this. I find a huge abandoned building much more interesting than a bunch of exteriors and 3 pictures of a bland modern interior.

Edit Again: Ugh, grammar and spelling errors.

This is one thread , I haven't had much time to upload/edit photos. There is more to come of those I posted recently. I don't understand why I'm even saying this. Fuck anything I've ever posted here has been more interesting than a Walmart. Kid just keep at it and look out for more interesting places is all.
