I totally agree mate.
Don't get me wrong though, if you don't do wheelies or can't wheelie and have no intention of learning that's fine, not everyone wants to wheelie. BUT, to say it's pointless to wheelie anywhere and if you do wheelie then you're a tw*t, I wheelie think is a bit OTT!!
Most people buy a bike because it's fun and gives the rider an adrenalin rush that can't be matched in a car. Some of those riders like to wheelie and some of them don't. I wouldn't slag someone off just because they don't wheelie, so I don't expect to be called a tw*t just because I do wheelie. Obviously there are idiots out there who ride badly, but you get that in cars and everything else on the road too.
There's too much stereo typing in the bike world today. When I first got into biking when I was about 18 years old, every biker got on with every other biker. No one cared what bike you rode, how much your leathers cost or whether you pulled wheelies or not!
The OP was simply asking for some advice because he wants to learn to wheelie, fair play to him I say. At least he's trying to get some advice first and not just going out to blindly have a go.
So come on guys, if someone rides differently to you just remember...they're still a biker!
