I have no problem with where they live (thousands of miles away from me, thankfully) or what they do for a living. The problem I have is that most of the ones I see on bitcointalk contribute absolutely ZERO to any conversations. Why? Because they're so desperate to make their required number of posts for their sig campaigns, and the campaigns have absolutely no quality control. They post the same phrases and sentiments about bitcoin over and over, and it's maddening. So I wish they would stick to the local board that most suits their language skills. Me, if the first 3 words of a sentence aren't in the proper order and I cannot understand where the post is going, I just skip it. Most of the posts I skip come from foreign posters. Asia, and the Phippines in particular, is the main culprit. And I'd say Russia is up there, too.
I can see your point.
I wish my brothers and sisters would simply look at the bigger picture, and not just obssess over their post count and not "how to be jr. Member?" Or "how to join sig campaign?".
Allot of us Filipinos,( not everyone of course!) have a spoon fed mentallity. I know this since I'm still struggling to break out of it. It probably stems from our tradition of living together in hard times, and thinking that being alone and self-sustaining in life is a prospect only for those who are lucky or already rich.
But it should go without saying that this could fit with anyone- not just east asians or whatever race. The tendency just sticks with 3rd world countries.
Just my probably faulty observation, please dont take my word as absolute.
