I agree with you on this point completely. that being said:

Why is it necessary to refuse help because you "believe" in playing the game with different mods installed or difficulty settings? You only came back and gave a somewhat more non-judgemental reply after JC replied with an objective and legitimate attempt to help "overandout" find an answer to his question.

Why the need to look down your nose at others who prefer their difficulty/realism mods/settings different than your own?

I think that a "mightier than thou" attitude is counterproductive to making people feel welcome here at the subsim forums. Why not just either help someone out or maintain "silent running"? "overandout" was looking for some clarification on something about the game he didn't understand not your judgement call on how you think the game should be played.

Not trying to be inflammatory, just trying to offer you a bit of constructive criticism. Only reason I did this via this thread instead of a pm was so that maybe some others here who tend to take the same position with others from time to time might think about it too.

Again, relax, this is NOT intended to be some kind of personal dressing down, it is meant to be food for thought, for all.

Happy hunting!
