Default RE: Advice Please! :)

Samolot,
We are not rubbing anything in. Nor are we telling you that you can't remark on these issues. All we are trying to get you to see is that you shouldn't make such wide sweeping comments based on one or two items. Rather you should have made comments like "Electric motors are growing in popularity and there are lot of them out there" or "I've had a brand XX motor and I had nothing but problems with it." Those kind of comments are more accepted by the people here on RCU and welcome in any discussion about any given subject. You have to realize that here in the beginners forum we have to be a little more careful about how, where, and why things are said because of the nature of this forum. We are always getting new people in this forum who are just getting started in this hobby. When they come on here and they see a member that's been here for over a year saying that "glow power is unreliable" they are going to think that statements is a hard fact. That is why some of the more experienced modelers do hang out here to help in the forums, and why they will correct false facts that are put out, so that newer people don't get steered wrong. It has absolutely nothing to do with you at all. We do understand that newer pilots get excited about the hobby as they start to learn more about it, and they are eager to start taking place in these discussions in the role of somebody that has answers instead of always asking questions. It's just human nature. I'll let you in on a little secret, everybody in here (and I mean everybody) is still learning. Nobody here knows everything, and we do still make mistakes too. Hey, we're human too. So hang in there, we do appreciate you as a member of this forum and we welcome your participation in the threads. That's how you're going to learn things.
