I am also one of those who thinks that the FAs often are responsible for the problems created by inebriated passengers.

I have been subject several times to this situation: After having asked a couple of times for a refill of wine after having finished dinner, sometimes the FA goes and fills a large glass up to the rim with wine. I am not sure of her intentions, but I get annoyed for several reasos: 1) Is she trying to tell me "you drink too much"? 2) Is she just saying "here have a lot and do not call me anymore for a refill as I am tired of you keeping to ask for more"? 3)I find it lacking class drinking wine from a regular glass that is full of wine.

Often, I noticed that when asking for one more drink, the FAs would give a few of the mini bottles to the passenger. It is as if the FAs are trying to save themselves from having to come again through the cabin to serve more drinks. They would rather give lots of drinks to passengers before they even ask.
