Default RE: Why Is 3D Hated?

I have never seen a "3D" plane (50cc gasser or larger) get out of control and enter the pilot/pit area. (I prolly fly more than 75% of the people reading this post)

I have seen multiple other types do it too frequently.....

What ever the reason, what I have seen, (I am fairly well connected with the 3D crowd in SoCal), 3D pilots rarely crash, and when they do, it is
away from people and at a very slow speed.

Invariably, the joker who just stuffed his Saito 100 powered 18 pound P40 into a table in the pit area was complaining about how unsafe the 3D guys are 15 minutes before his Takeoff-stall-spin-crash

3D guys can be (well prolly are) just as arrogant and rude as the next sort of pilot... (Though Jet guys are prolly at the pinnacle of arrogance!! lol)...
but they (we?) oughta be hated 'cuz we are rude (if/when we are rude) rather than because we like to fly big (Scale) gas planes that plow thru the sky at peculiar AOA's
