I am a West Indian and I have only recently joined Yahoo! Answers.
I agree that there is much criticism of India and Indians on this website. However,from my observations, a high percentage of the criticisms come from your own people! That is startling in itself! I believe you should do a self examination and you will see what and where the problems are. You need to project a better image of yourselves and of your country and then you would start to get more respect.
It has nothing to do with your skin colour (I am from the Caribbean and I am blacker than you) or whether or not you are a less developed country than most. It just seems that, at least for me, your way of life...your values...your passion...your expectations are a bit different...but that is your culture and I have to respect that!
Having said that, there is ABSOLUTELY no way in the modern world that would accept your arrogance(e.g. the lack of respect for the other teams) and the way you sometimes criticize or even treat your own kind.
I will use cricket as an example, Dhoni's house being destroyed because the team loses a game to Bangladesh is bordering on primitive and babaric. Sachin is an icon in India (and the rest of the cricketing world). He has been your hero for a long time.Just because he doesn't perform to your expectations in CWC 2007, you treat him with scant courtesy.
I can empathize with you on some issues because as a West Indian, we have had our moments when our team has let us down. A matter of fact it's been a while since WI have done something for us to savour. However, the lengths to which you go to criticise and make derogatory remarks about the ones you support and love does not describe the true meaning of fans. Furthermore, you are making those comments in a forum for the rest to world to see. You have no choice but to deal with the backlash!
I know this is a long read but in closing, I just want to say you have no one to blame but yourselves for the way the rest of Yahoo! Answers view you. I am saying this from an objective unbiased perspective.

Because the main motivation for us Indians more than anything else is..........MONEY!
We don't care about the spirit of the game (cricket or whatever sport) or the people we help in our work of whatever field or try to enjoy ourselves or have fun...we only care about money.
We're blinded by money and pride and hence loose our ethics and fall for it.
We're so shallow, that every country in the world uses us as much as possible and in the end we end up being looked as dirtbags.
India is very conservative oohh guy can't hang out with another girl, anything outside of arranged marriages are unethcial...puahahahahahaha....our love for money, jealousy for neighbors, greedy selfish attiutudes to get get as much money as possible makes us seriously the least ethicallly sensitive people in the world!

please do not get mad at me. this is just my view...i am sorry if i hurt anyone..
Hello Aki...Good question. They shouldn't post so many question mocking India or Pakistan in Yahoo all over. I am a Bangladeshi supporter. The reason I don't want to open any topic on Bangladesh because all the Indian and Pakistani supporter will curse me big time, sometime probably for no reason, sometimes probably they just can tolerate or hatred.. as they even curse themselves and I have seen yahoo users calling Bangladesh a "bast***". To them I have only this to say--- If you guys don't have respect for yourself, how you gonna respect others and get respect back from others? I hope none of you wont ever hear any cursing from my behalf. :D thanks. Hatred only creates war.

personally as an Aussie i feel every time i get on to the cricket forum there is always alot,id say majority of indians on here carrying on about how good tendulka is,how you guys are going to kick other sides a$$es,how you all think Aussies are arrogant/racist and generally its just india this and india that.
people get sick of hearing the same stuff,and probably answer questions in a negative manner towards india.
don't worry about it your not alone-try being an Aussie cricket fan on this forum,we get heaps of criticism and alot of it comes from indians.

You guys don't respect others so how can you think of getting respect back from others. Wouldn't you get mad when someone curses you? Same goes here, it doesn't change the fact even if you guys curse other low ranked team. They still win. It only introduce yourself over as a pathetic team and make them stronger. So stop look down. Don't produce the Caste system here.

Before the vote begins the asker can select a great reply. If there's a vote then the citizens can select "no great reply". If the character answering the query is the one one balloting then that's no longer his predicament. The majority of questions wouldn't have a great reply picked by means of the asker. Many handiest ask a unmarried query and by no means come again. You cannot simply have unresolved questions sitting available in the market eternally. ? ??l???q ?
