Ufff, yes it is confusing, i am kinda under some pressure "need to do things this minute" sorry if i was confusing to you.
I do agree with your POV and actually with LV to some extent but he doesn't have to be rude but i understand how frustrating that can be, i always remember one pearl of this community and i will paraphrase that question "How to get cars on the ground?" ahahaha :D Tell me that something like that don't put smile on your face?
And let that be answer to your question.
Photography is not that much to be observed as technical thing it is more subjective then objective so from that point it is somewhat different from 3D, and i will agree with you one more time as helping someone who deserve to be helped is good thing, but that someone could read such shit answer and what then? You will be better ignoring silly question then to go all the way and tell some bad words to someone.
I do think that this is good thing, what is happening right now(this discussion) and like with so many good things they do not choose time or place and they happen spontaneously. LV has apologized and said that he overacted and that is positive so i have nothing bad to say about it right now he is human and everybody can make mistake.
People should help other people especially if it is knowledge! If he doesn't like question he doesn't have to answer it, if someone is asking stupid question that someone will realize it sooner or later when no one answer to it. Then he will maybe try alternative and google-it(not in relation to Italian google :D) and then maybe find out that he needs to learn some basics first etc.
I am just saying that from your or LV POV that is stupid question but from POV of other guy(one that was asking it) he does not even realizing how stupid question is so you do not have to emphasize that, you wouldn't benefit anything, or maybe you do benefit if you tell someone that openly how stupid he is?
And yes people do tend to ask "what lens did you use?" that is most common question man(lens pride you can't wait for someone to pop that question :D) But most of those things you gave as example are already in exif(except standing, even that with geo tagging :D) and i have to disappoint you but all those questions are answered, maybe you are visiting wrong forums.
Creativity is whole another topic here... Asking someone who knows something that you don't is not creative steal, fact!
I can ask you for instance, how did you achieved lighting condition in "place name of any of your work here" and you answer me something like, that you used negative gamma to have sharper shadows, used full spherical sky etc. And you did explain all this so i am using it like example.
So that is directly helping me to realize mistakes i have made and thus making me better artist to some extent. So you are cool guy for helping me and others!
B)You could also ignore question. No one even notice that you have ignore question or maybe it does but fact is that you do not have to explain to other people your decision if that doesn't affect them.
C)Tell me openly how stupid i am for even asking such stupid thing, and be complete dick about it.
Now you should know since you write that tutorial how that is benefiting you, i am sure that someone is dare to ask you to give him whole scene, i am sure someone is unable to replicate same results etc. does that makes you bad teacher(who knows maybe if no one understand it) but sure it doesn't make you bad person. And since the beginning of civilization people tend to steal from other people, that is nothing to be scared about especially if it's naive thing as asking someone to provide you freely... So i am not even sure why i am writing this last bit and why it's even on the topic here? OOOOOOOH i know why cuz people tend to generalize whole situation and say that something like that do only people from "overpopulated countries" India, China... And that is BAD SHIT same as claiming that only black people do crime in America... And telling me that Americans and Europeans are to righteous is BS. I was scammed for money from Americans and Europeans also. And not to mention cradle of piracy Bulgaria that is in Europe, largest and most popular servers for pirated shit is in Scandinavian countries(Europe) so wft? Indian, Chinese no good? Brainwash.com
But since you asked to consolidate my train of thoughts here they are, if you do not like stupid questions, do not answer to them in stupid way or else you will participate in that stupidity if you try to level with the guy answering in stupid manner.
If you want to help someone, help him and do not expect that your picture will be next to pope in Vatican. Lots of people have too much ego, pride or power crave so usually they write "time is money bitch" that doesn't help anyone.
Everyone think for their work that is "up there" but usually doesn't make it so, so if you are the one criticizing in it have that in mind, and you better do somewhat good job or it will sound like you are not confident in your own work if you give vague critique so more or less it is trying to achieve boosting your own work buy trashing work of someone else(and in 99% cases that is the reason) especially on the internet as you will just show how actually pussy you can be.
And i do feel bad when i see that, but hey it is what you get when you have billions of people roaming around internet instead of couple hundred millions 10 years ago... It is kinda tight.
I dno't see where do you get that black and white seeing things? Things i write is part of total randomization it's not even millions shades of grey but billions, but i can't let someone trashing someone and if that makes me seeing black and white then i do not mind, and usually gallery section everywhere and i do mean everywhere on net from FB to Collections on Getty stir up discussion of this type. And that is positive as long as you have civilized type of conversation.
Being scarred is wrong approach and usually creative people tend to build up such things in their heads(i will guess as they are creative even when they tripping :)) And i do not see where is that part of someone stealing from someone else in this topic, but i don't mind conversation on that theme. Yes he will tell him it is PG hdri and that he has contrast set to 3, that he set EV to 3.5 and HC to 7 BOOO HOOOO he will steal all his glory.
