The Witch Finder General

Since IAHM-COL, SHM, and I are kind of cut off from the "official" world by royal decree of King Curt and his chancelor Grima-Snake-Tongue ...[ oh wait, wrong story ] ... we are sometimes a little confused and have to ask those who have still access about what is going on.

That man is doing more harm to FG

Are we sure his first name isn't CLINT.

Vitos?
What do you have against him.

1) great developer
2) very knowledgeable
3) very willing to share his knowledge

and I don't think he is that impolite. But he is found in a situation that he NEEDs to respond to the incessant attack by Thorsten and Hooray.

Look, his Su15 is a thread for him to promote that plane. and Talk to people interested in testing it and flying it and like it,. Not a place for Thorsten and Hooray to come to do some propaganda about how bad Vitos work is, and how much better theirs is (PROPAGANDA).
How many times has Vitos go talk down the other two guy's projects in their threads (look for Vitos in the SpaceShuttle thread per example)? NONE!

Besides, the guy makes really reasonable points, like: He is clearly not willing to cooperate with those other two guys. Which they keep insisting he has too, or he better too, etc. And everyone gets heated against Vitos for disliking work with those two (which I really find unsurprising).

So, I am sorry lego, but you are looking at Vitos with the wrong lense. And don't thrust the Moderators position on the matter, because they are clearly biased.

So, that's that.

Well, about Vitos ... he can be rude ... dammit, I can be rude too and sometimes, it is justified, sometimes not. So for Heaven's sake, invite him over here to promote his plane and all is good. We are busy to beat each other up about politics, I guess, if someone choses a wrong word or words something a bit on the rugged side ... hey, book that under free speech, we have all the time worth here.
The 1st Amendment states, everybody has the right to speak his opinion
The 1st Amendment doesn't state the opinion has to be right ot truthful or even has to make sense and for sure, it says nothing about what is polite. So ...

Well, just my two cents.

100% with J.

Besides, I don't think Vitos is so impolite. He is socially knowledgful, and he knows that the only way to maintain the boastful ego of Thorsten under control is smashing the low hit. He can bleed. That's better than he getting away with his humiliating attitudes backed up by Curtis and other "status quo" guardians.

So when Vitos go all frontal to Thorsten, now, oh boy, do I know where he is coming from.

I do understand that, but for all of that....
He just acts like a spoiled child.
No! My plane is best! You can't change it! No! I won't put up documentation of my code! Nobody bothered!

It's Thorsten, the guy goes out of his way to be annoyed with people, he doesn't do diplomacy well.
