Seconded. ;-)

I fully agree with you here. Made the same experiences and know of many
others with the same experiences. Sadly, mostly the same people are
complaining in public about that, giving the wrong picture that only a very
small numbers of people have those described problems, although many others
are acknowledging these problems privately (because they fear to get flamed
in public?).
Even a fresh DD, who has been a NM last year, stated that he won't comment
publically against Mr. Troup, because he feared that his Approval would be
delayed then. Funny enough he obviously changed his mind after he became a
DD. Well, in Germany there is a word for those kind of people: "Wendehals"
