I think people complainfor one of three reasons:
    1. For attention
    2. To get advice or answers
    3. To vent

I think It is very hard to listen to constant complaining. Its hard enough to deal with my own problems without having to listen to someone complaining all the time. I think they should change the focus on solutions instead of blowing hot air and polluting the air with complaining.

Your 'complaint' is either ironic or, it's somewhat hypocritical to complain about complaining. Although it might be more subtle to complain that people may not be complaining enough, (silent/tacit acceptance). Maybe it can be deemed as a 'meta-complaint'.

I understand what you mean.  Some people never have anything good to say.  BUT ...  I think we are all guilty of complaining, I know I am.  We need to be more thankful and realize that it really doesn't help to complain.  I think those who do complain a lot are unhappy, depressed or truly sick so I try not to judge, just listen.

Do you ever get tired of people complaining all the time, and not for major reasons like " my legs hurts " cause from the knee down everything is missing, but for minor things like "I hate seeing misspelled words". Lol am I complaining about complaining people. Nobody likes to see misspelled words assuming the person reading it knows its misspelled. So many people would just ignore it.  Unless you are a English teacher you shouldn't care or at least not enough to comment on it pbut there is always one person who has a problem with such simple things. If it was something like "I'm standing hear" instead of "here" then yea I can see your point but u still understood what was being said, so get over it.

I hate complainers

I fully understand what you are saying but I can't help but find this funny.  I mean, you are complaining about people complaining.  Kind of ironic isn't it? :)

You don't have to hate yourself for complaining when disliking that you do it is probably sufficient.

There is not point in complaining about something. It accomplishes nothing. The only worries one should have are those that one can do something about. Otherwise, accept that that's life.

That's not entirely accurate and is somewhat 'defeatist' of an attitude.  Presumably, the reason that complaints are registered is to draw attention to a problem, (such as submitting a support ticket on FC, for example).  The subsequent expectation being that someone may be able to do something about it, (beyond the complaint itself).
