Well, if you look at the original replies to my informative, we'll intentioned post I am not sure why you would not see them as complaints. You would be better off directing your comment to those who are making comments that look and sound like complaints...

I dont read anything in this group as a 'complaint'. I read everything as good information even though I may already know some of the answers given from my own experience.

Personally, I think complaints are valuable. Making a decision on where to go, what to do, where to live, who to date requires more information than just what "everything is great" people describe. Complaints help us prepare for what we are likely to experience.

If I am not mistaken it's because at least one other big visa advice group only allows actual visa related questions.

Need a bank account?

Want to know about getting a driver's license?

Etc..

That's the 'and everything else" in this group.

 hypocrite? What a ridiculous remark. It's apparent you don't understand the meaning of the word. And if you do understand but despite that use it where it is not appropriate then you have some wires crossed in your so called brain. You remind me of a spoiled little brat. When you mature mentally your life will be better
