I give up, after many, many years!

You haven't been here long enough. Many times Mx or Le Chaud Lapin will ask a question, get the right answer in a polite manner, and then argue endlessly against that answer, belittling the teacher. I have been here forever, and I have NEVER seen MX belittle anyone. Not once. Now, either that's because I don't read every, single thread MX responds to, or it's because my definition of "belittling" differs from yours -- but I have only seen polite responses from him in the face of some VERY demeaning attacks. There have been times, believe me, where we can get some frustrated. If he isn't as bad as I made out, I apologize. But here's an example of a reply from him about a year ago: Viperdoc writes: Hey Anthony you butthead- your basic premise is incorrect: the autopilot in small planes (like the Baron I've flown for around 500 hours) does not do coordinated turns. Just because there might be some anomalous behavior in your game does not make is so in real life. There is no anomaly in the game. The only anomaly I see is that nobody here knows the answer. Lots of people strutting about and claiming to be experts, and calling each other stupid, but nobody really knows, and that is pretty glaringly obvious to the observer. However, so little rudder is needed at speed, it makes no difference if the ball is halfway out, in terms of comfort. Then my attempts to keep it centered with the rudder are not necessary, either. Also, a standard rate turn is not necessarily a coordinated turn, although some of your statements suggested that you do not know the difference. I know the difference. As good as you might think it is, do not mistake the flying model of a $50 computer game with real flying. Your presumed knowledge and the basis of your questions are obviously limited by the shortcomings of MSFS. Do not assume that every anomaly is a simulator defect. The simulator is a lot better than you think. Indeed, it predicts the behavior of an aircraft a lot better than anyone here does. End of quote. A little presumptuous, maybe?

I have been here forever, and I have NEVER seen MX belittle anyone. Not once. I've never noticed him belittle individuals. He belittles broad groups. It makes him superior to the crowd to be able to say he never stoops to personal attacks while catagorizing entire groups as stupid, incompetent, lazy, etc. That the groups he belittles are generally the majority of the readers of the USENET groups he posts to is irrelevant. -- Jim Pennino Remove .spam.sux to reply. |

Some of the so-called pilots here would have immediately defaulted to cuss words and insults.

Wow, you guys really filter-out Jay? I can't decide whether to be disappointed...or honored. Jay, You and I are on the opposite ends of the political spectrum. However, I respect your (nonpolitical) replies as contributory to the group. Actually, MX usually asks relevant questions also, even though he is a poseur. He isn't offensive. BtB is a loser who needs to get a life. I encounter and hear from guys like him in my practice every day. They are a dime a dozen. Ignore him; it's not worth your time...really. |

But Usenet is a fire hose of ideas from which one may selectively sip. Some see it as a virtual tavern, others as a worldwide egalitarian forum like mankind has never before witnessed. It's creators envisioned an open vehicle for rapid news dispersal nobly rooted in self governance. It is all those things, and more. Ultimately, Usenet is what we make it. -- "The object in life is not to be on the side of the majority, but to escape finding oneself in the ranks of the insane." --The intellectual Roman Emperor Marcus Aurelius (AD 121-180) |
