You could have prevented this, /p/.
Hopes and dreams, all lost. Maybe we memed on him so hard some weird meme magic voodoo was activated on this poor sap.
Sugar-a-thon anyone?
Someone give the guy a camera, a film p&s will be enough i think. Remember to include a roll. I would give him one of mine, but he is too fucking far away.
And nothing of value was lost
Sugar, my offer stands. >>2872122
You want a camera? Just say so. I'll send you one.
Sugar has rage quit before. Nothing new.
He's one of the most toxic personalities on this cesspool.
Good riddance.
>>2872139
My only complaint about Sugar is that he falls too easily into the traps of trolls like isi. If he just didn't get his panties in a wad when the vitriolic trolls attack him, he'd be fine.
>>2872139
>He's one of the most toxic personalities on this cesspool.
oh, you are totally not from the IRC cuckshed.
Sugar is a dorky character, but he is not deliberately harmful or ill intended, like the bunch of doxxing faggots we all know about.
>>2872152
>oh, you are totally not from the IRC cuckshed.
This. Fucking this.
There are people on /p/ who deliberately try to fuck with this board just for the sport of watching it burn. Dorky is a great word for Sugar. He's excitable, and he fights back too hard, but he doesn't come here with the express purpose of stirring shit up.
>>2872165
Yes he does.
He literally said that's why he posts like a week ago.
Isi offered him a Bessa or xpro1 but he declined

if that failed shell of a man had ever really wanted to take pictures, we would have seen them.
he only posted on /p/ because he got a camera one time and thought he should come here, and then realised that being a trip on such a slow wasteland of a board afforded him instant celebrity status.
he thought that 'getting into film' and 'god-tier LF' would create some kind of social cachet he could nurse his dying husk of an ego with.
even if the fairytale he shared was real (its not, he hocked everything) what the fuck good could he get from another cam as worthless as a beat to shit XP sp.1? He's not a fucking photographer.
Hey sugar someone from Orlando recently posted on Reddit about a RB67 they inherited. They don't know about photography and were asking questions about testing it so they could sell it. Maybe you could scope that up for a decent price? It was no more than a week or two ago.

He can afford all those gear yet it seems like he is poor as hell.

I pretty much can afford a D800 and thousand dollar glass yet I shoot with an Nikon F90x, which was only given to me. I used to have a Nikon D90 but I sold it since its getting old and I bought it for cheap anyway.
Is Sugar a pro photographer? If so, then it is understandable to have all those gear since its gives him a livelihood. But for a hobbyist, why spend all that money? One or two cameras is all you need in my opinion.

This is my biggest fear. How do I prevent this from happening to me?
>>2872444
>I would have spend that amount of money on travelling instead
I honestly don't understand why more people don't do this. I've spent ~$2500 on photo gear in the past 6 years but around ~$25,000 on traveling.
Experiences + places to shoot photos > cameras
>>2872457
No photos?
>>2872453
Well, I'm certainly no logician, but let's look at the facts:
1) Sugar is a vegan.
2) Sugar's shit got stolen.
3) Therefore, vegans get their shit stolen.
The solution is simple: Eat more meat.

I get paid to travel and shoot people. All my gear are well paid by my customers. I guess you hobbyist are needed to keep camera prices low. You can never make if you are not a pro.

Can you please send one to me instead?

You know, there are a lot of hobbyists who have decent jobs and can spend whatever they want on camera gear and/or travel.
Apparently they didn't grab my Nikkormat or Nikon FG either which I could have sworn were in that bag, so not all is lost.
This puts me down to the Nikkormat, FG, 50mm 1.4, 28/2.8 and 36-72, and that Lolympus PS digi

Also, do you flash it around? I live in a good neighborhood, but still never let my equipment be seen. I even transport my camera bag in an old gym bag like a slav. Also, every time I get out of my car I say loudly "God, I hate being poor"
People who are offering to buy or give Sugar a camera: please don't.
There are kids who are just starting out, third worlders struggling to raise the funds, and otherwise nice people who have good intentions and just can't figure out how to not be a poorfag. They are all infinitely more deserving of your generosity than a fat, racist hateful slob like Jesse.

Send Sugar a camera bag sealed shut, but don't tell him it's sealed. Weight it with some lead and tell him it has a Mamiya RBwhatever inside.
He'll be delighted and continue doing that thing he does, talking about how amazing his new camera is, how it's just like his old one, how durable and satisfying it is to use, etc., while never actually taking pictures. (Not ones worth looking at, anyway.)
>>2872720
Don't worry. I wouldn't have actually wasted postage on you. :^)
I swear to God, Sugar. If you want I'll send you a Holga.
Think about it man. This board would completely lose its shit if you shot with a Holga. It'd be the to mate fuck you to the haters. Trolls would literally lose their minds and die. You've gotta do it. Youve gotta say yes.
Thanks Sugar, keep on truckin' with those poor life choices m80.

Here's what I don't get. Sugar doesn't use a secure tripcode, which means that, if you actually put forth a modicum of effort, you could've figured out his code. But, instead, you went the laziest route possible.

>Talk to the IRC channel about it.
There is only one hell hole on earth that is actually worse than /p/, and that's the /p/ IRC channel. At least on /p/ you can filter out trips and hide threads and only focus on what you want. On the IRC channel, it really is just one giant circle jerk, where the focus isn't even photography. At least here there's some minimum expectation that stuff is photography-related, but there is just solely personalities and nothing else.
>>2872800
Classy. The second time I've seen /pol/ on /p/ today.
>>2872805
Was the first time when Sugar assumed that "niggers" stole his shitty gear?
Reminder to report such posts, tripfriend or not.
>>2872808
Sugar's post was about his camera gear being stolen and hence was at least photography-related. There's no rule about being a racist dick when you're talking about something related to the theme of the board.
Just posting a bare racist image has nothing to do with photography.
>>2872805
Oh, no the person in the image was black! That must be racism!

>Sugar is a dorky character, but he is not deliberately harmful or ill intended, like the bunch of doxxing faggots we all know about.
AC was a harmless dork. Sugar is pure poison with no redeeming qualities. Maybe you guys are too new to remember when he tried to take over the weekly photo challenge and tried to pattern it after his own gear? And when participation was at an all time low, he flipped the fuck out and talked shit about the challenge photos posted by the few people who tried to humor him and play along? That was 2 or 3 years ago.
2016 sugar now actively tries to shitpost as much as possible (he's even admitted to doing so several times) in some submoronic attempt at "trolling". He picks fights with other tripfags for the sheer sake of trying to stir up drama, talks shit to newbie anons (as if he had one leg to stand on) and is generally a total drain on the board.
I get that you guys want to project some dorky aww-shucks goofiness onto someone here. I get it. We need a shclemiel in this dramaturgy of ours, a hapless foil by which we can make ourselves feel better merely by not being him, but sugar ain't it. Dude's a shitty person, through and through, and he's made the board progressively worse with every year of his attendance.
>>2872973
And this is a good (last) chance for him to change. All he needs is our last bit of trust and good will. If he still persist to be an anal cavity then we can leave him be to his own shit without any bit of regret.
>>2872973
Exactly this. Every word.
>>2873004
He still has enough gear to take photos and he's one of the least deserving people of your charity ever to go to this board.
If you have a camera you want to give away that's great, but give it to someone who isn't an utter piece of shit.
You KNOW Sugar is just going to sit on his fat ass and talk about how just exactly that camera is any good and you "kids" should "step up" and get one. After you hand it to him out of misplaced pity.
It was like that with the RB and it was like that with the LF cam. It was like that with the FED too.

>>2876094
>bumping with such a pointless comment
>>2872457
Different interests and needs, I guess. I'm not really into travel photography, and a new piece of gear is something I can use every day of the year, instead of having a week or two of travel and then coming back to the exact same setup.
That said, I live in a place with no shortage of photographic opportunities, and I'm at a point in my "career" where I have my niche and usually know exactly what capabilities I want to expand and what piece of gear I might need. I see a lot of people on /p/ that keep buying various pieces of gear that do the same things, and I agree that that's often kind of pointless.
