Re: Those who are jerks and why they would be
I have been playing under random nicks for quite some time now, and I think it's time so sum things up:
Some of the players, that I had considered 'nice' in fact behave like assholes towards foreign players. And with 'some' I also mean players who posted in this thread. I also met some people, who were pilloried here, and they turned out to be very normal.
So I can only give one advice to any guest that reads here: don't give a rats ass about the nicks that are posted here!

I hope your investigation was real as you affirm.
