Then, I paid and several days went by with no response at all... and the tone
of the emails didn't seem to warm as well. I finally got the combination, but I don't even think I want to bother with it. I think I'll find my own field and be a rebel! ha ha [8D]
You may be absolutely right about the attitude at the club, but from my reading, you may be absolutely wrong. From here, it appears that you are reading way too much into stuff, because (like everybody) you assume everybody is a lot like you. Waiting "several days" for response to email is the NORM in the real world. It's only Internet addicts like RCU members that reply to every email in 5 minutes. And then you didn't like the tone of the email! Come on! This is a club of guys who like to fly airplanes. You can't really expect wonderful prose from them. Why would you expect the tone to be "warm"? These are GUYS!
I don't think anybody is being hostile to you, it's just nobody has gone out of their way to be really friendly. My guess is that they fly different planes than you do, and just aren't particularly interested. If there is rarely anybody at the field, why are you worrying about them watching you like a hawk?
Actually, as I re-read your first post, I'm thinking it's a troll. The reason is the word "Nazi". That doesn't seem like a word that an offended newbie in your position would come up with. Also, the part about not naming names. If I'm wrong, I apologize. The paragraphs above are assuming you're sincere.
