This is also another important point.Originally posted by Pirschjaeger:
I find the majority of whiners to be extremely unfair in many ways. For example, if you want to discuss something about the plane you fly, they are like termites, they aggressively bite their way into the thread, fill it full of holes, and take away any chance of having good thread, for those who are interested.
For example: A guy posts genuinely to complain that an aircraft in FB/PF is not accurate in its depiction in the game. He presents his points perfectly. Then we`ll get the goiks who`ll come along with no interest in accuracy or reality and just add a lot of rubbish. It`s very similar to a small naughty child muddying the clear waters so that in the end NO-ONE can tell what`s a good complaint or a bunch of childish whines.
A nasty tactic used often here.
I strongly suspect the reason for that is precisely the same reason why there was far less whining seen on these forums before US planes were introduced. i.e. It's languageOriginally posted by Pirschjaeger:
BTW, for any of those who can read and write German, take a look at the German GD. You'll find a lot less whining in there. Is that linguistic or cultural?

I'm sure even Oleg would agree with that - he's said as much in the past.

By saying "It's language" you really means "It's the Americans", don't you Norris?

I think he was quite clear on yank whiner issue there.
But if I may add my 2c - IMO no side of our biased part of community is entirely to blame for increased ammount of whining threads/posts. About shares of guilt... well...![]()
Although I don't consider myself a whiner, there is a difference between being an advocate and not being able to accept facts. The true whiners are those who won't accept that certain planes need fixing, despite the overwhelming evidence to do so, and let everyone know why the facts are wrong.Originally posted by SeaFireLIV:
Extremely right. One thing I`ve discovered about a lot of whiners on the forum is they aren`t about being fair. It`s fine for them to whine that there favourite plane is porked or their hated plane is Uber, but they`d never say their favourite plane is too good or their hated plane is not good enough!
Although there ARE rare exceptions.
One is not a whiner simply because they don't leap to the defense or take the lead in trying to change a plane they either don't like or could care less about. That's like a trial attorney arguing his opponent's case. There are plenty of fans of certain planes around to do that.

Americans aren't the only ones that speak English.
