[WWI] Thats why!

Just a correction; there is no debate as to whether Diego exists; you might know him by his other name, The Bogeyman

You are under a misapprehension.

True, rivets are few and far between (except maybe on a Mark IV tank or some 
such), but we have big "discussions" about:

1. Color; e.g. Voss's cowl, PC-10, PC-12, French cockade blue, etc.
2. Scale black
3. Airbrush shading of panels and ribs
4. Whether the following really exist:
(i) My evil twin (who makes Japanese & Soviet WW2 things)
(ii) Genuine pieces of fabric covering from an Aviatik D.I
(iii) Diego Fernetti
(iv) New Hampshire

I see, after banging on about how bad acronyms are, you are making up your 
own. Don't you feel bad about that?
