Each of Tree's (or anyone else's - I'm not talking about specific persons) "whining" threads had some true to be discussed within them, and moderators should allow it, as long as it's not getting "bad".

What's "bad"? Well, not the whining. Many of us are married to whining wifes and we still live with them

One of my own definitions of "bad" in a forum is the personal attack to some other member.
By attack, I do not mean the "hot" discussions. I mean simple things like "you're a faggot", "dolphin is a bastard" or put whatever else personal insult you want here.
That's where a moderator should interfere immediately, so as to not let time to the insulted member respond. Which response is justified, as long as the moderator has not interfered before.

Closing, I'd like to say that it's obvious that I agree with Mazex (and other members of this topic), but this doesn't mean that I do not agree with Feuerfalke as well!
The response we get from each membet comes from the level of their involvement in this forum, i.e. Feuerfalke is too active and thus tired of opposing same ol' shit each day. Maybe he should not be involved that much. It would do good to him
What Tree did went beyond "whining"...he was just trying to stir sh*t up. In his own words he said he was "bored". In his own words he said the forum bored him, and he just wanted to "have fun". If people want that kind of behavior in their forum that is fine with me (I can go elsewhere). BUT, if people don't want that kind of behavior in their forum, I'm fine with that too...in fact I kind of prefer it.

By the very nature of being a troll, they can rarely tell where the line is...

I'm glad this changed and hopefully we can soon discuss some more IL2/BoB-related topics.
