On a thread which was meant for information gathering, not even one person took the initiative to bring up the schools safety record, which is frankly quite important when making a decision on where to invest your 60k-70k in.
I would say the one liner provided better insight than any of the stooges in thread, who chose keep this small yet very relevant piece of information out.
Obviously people can go out their way to search in-depth about incidents and accidents,
once they know about it's existence. But bear in mind a large chunk of the readers of such threads, if not the majority, are taking their first steps into aviation and have little exposure to different information sources from where they could make a well rounded decisions regarding which school to trust enough to remortgage their parents houses on.
Had anyone not brought it up on this thread in the first place, readers would have not even known about it's existence , as obviously the school itself nor it's lackeys have any interest in sharing such information, given how hush hush they're being about it. Not to mention how promptly we got a reactionary response once the information was infact given out

Then you are using your expertise in the wrong way. OP wanted information and an opinion about the flight school. OP got information and an opinion about the flight school from the poster above. There was no twisting, turning or spreading misinformation.
However your reply was infact nothing more but a defensive reaction to a piece of information you'd not have wanted readers to find out about in the first place- which is why you chose the reactive approach and not the proactive one.
