I’ve spent a few years at sea with Master Mariners from a number of nations—including Norway—and I’m familiar with the arrogance acquired by some. They often do not see the need to explain their actions to anyone.
Fortunately, most who command oceanographic research vessels have lost such attitudes.
I should have stayed out of this thread, but I can not. I must say it is a shame for a forum about a ship simulator game to have a moderator how judge Master Mariners in that way Mvsmith is doing here.
I do not think this persons mvsmith have met who were arrogance, was that cause they were Master Mariners. Arrogance have nothing to do with working titles. Arrogant persons can be find everywhere and have nothing to do with which work a person have had. And just to make it clear, I am not a Master Mariner or a commander of a research vessel.
And Apejens, I hope you do not leave the forum cause of this, do not let one person have that power over you(hope you got what I mean).
