That's it, shout terrorist.

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.

I've seen him try, but of course, those went over your pointy head.

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.

In this regard, he certainly doesn't fit the M.O. of most trolls.


You wouldn't know wat a troll was if it bit you in the nuts.



Bertie

Yeah, like you could, wanna boi.





Like I would. fjukktard.



Yew so dumm you don't know if you got nuts or bolts anyway.
Yew so dumm you read "Drive thru" and kept on going.

On May 14, 9:15*pm, "Jay Honeck" Yep, MX was out of line with his
facts -- but in the face of a personal
attack like that ("you butthead"?), you've got to be fairly impressed with
his calm response. * Some of the so-called pilots here would have
immediately defaulted to cuss words and insults.

MX is a lot of things -- impolite isn't one of them.
Im gonna beg to differ with this one. A year ago or so I answered one
of his posts , which I ussually dont do, that had something to do with
airliners and balanced field length. He wrote back that I was wrong
and some theory that since pilots fly airliners into terain their
answers cannot be trusted. And I was polite to the guy ! (You are the
only one I call names on this list )

Frank, I agree w/you. It's a different version of impolite.

It's the inexperienced-yet-authoritative, condescending arguments and
tone with people who have actual experience and knowledge. It's the
practice of baiting with what appear to be innocent, genuine questions
only to courteously tell others who respond that they're full of sh*t.
It's not the more typical in-your-face name-calling; it's the
condescending blanket generalizations about people with *actual
experience* not having a clue while HE has a clear, accurate
understanding.

That's not as blatant or easily recognizable as "impolite" as calling
someone a "butthead", but it is impolite just the same, albeit more
cleverly so.

But Usenet is a fire hose of ideas from which one may selectively sip.

Glorious, ain't it? Even in its current state, this forum is...fun.

As I've said before, this, too, shall pass.

Anywho, I'm not saying MX is right, nor am I saying he's not necessarily a
troll, in the classic sense of the word. I *am* saying he's primarily
on-topic, occasionally asks really good questions, and is never overtly
rude.

In this forum, nowadays, that's as good as it gets.

Agree 100%. But in that regard, this sort of subtle "impoliteness" is de
rigueur amongst the population in general nowadays. At least its clever,
which is more than you can say about the other trolls here.

Ignorance is not necessarily abated by becoming a certificated pilot.
(Witness the number of pilots who responded negatively to my flying to
Florida VFR using on-board XM weather.) At least MX's ignorance often leads
to good topics.
