@Wodge

My point is that these kind of threads end up for the most part in little flamewars since the threadstarter had only indignities and no real arguments. Like I said I guess this was also his/her intend, to get people riled up(Germans vs. Americans vs. etc. like we can see on the first couple of pages).
I didn't really know that you shouldn't post in threads here that're about your own country, like I did, since most people seem to do it anyway in the different forums. So no I won't "piss off" also because Im already in Germany I think that kind of input can often solve misunderstandings or add information(I've been to a lot of other countries myself - confronted with different mentalities).
Critisism is ok, you just do it with clean arguments and not dumb generalizations and abusive language.
But this seems to be the problem around here in general. No forum rules, stickies etc. and rasist, offensive comments don't get deleted by moderators(I doubt there even exist one here) which often ends up in childish name-calling and so on.

It wasn't really worth responding to this thread in the first place and thinking about it I take back the two swearwords from my first comment because otherwise that'd just play into the hands of the Flamers.

So long! Leo
