Its funny cause on average Americans are at least part French in lineage.
I believe it's because on average Americans think that France owes America for WWII and France wasn't on board with Iraq so they must be evil.
But I could be wrong.

LinkX - There is no point in stating something like to anyone. Yes it is your own opinion, but maybe others do not want to hear it.
I was pointing out something that does happen. I was trying to warn her so she would know ahead of time that it will happen when it happens. I am sorry that I was trying to be nice.
I wasn't trying to single-out one person, hence the thread.
I agree with you -- quality over quantity, but that wasn't my point.
My sole point was, if you want quality people to stick around, don't ignite flame wars in their introductory thread. That shows bad quality on the part of those who do so; you defeat your purpose by showing your ass in the same thread in which someone introduces themselves.
It shows disrespect to the new person, and reflects poorly on the community.
That's all I'm saying.
I didn't "ignite a flame war". I simply warned her that Americans, on average, do not like the French. Otc attacked me for pointing that out. I asked him to prove me wrong and he refused.
I don't think it's wrong to warn someone about something that is relatively common on average.
Also, its singling me out if you say LINKX DID THIS in a thread, not in a PM.

Personally I like the idea of quality over quantity. Guess that's a dying idea though...
By the way, if you have a problem with me, PM me, don't make a thread about it.
