Re: Stop negativity- Most of u here are temporary
 

just because people post negative things of the n900 doesnt mean theyre complaining. Unless you are the CEO of nokia, it really shouldnt bother you. A lot of people have very constructive criticism and its helpful for all of us. Sometimes when I have problems with my n900 im hesitant to make a thread because I know people like you (and others) will jump all over it. I understand where your going with this but we shouldnt discourage people from posting their criticism, your not forced to read all the threads here.

EDIT: If you're talking about people like orangebox, then ignore everything I wrote, ill switch sides (although he did have some useful info once in a while)

Another Nokia apologizer will become extinct

Re: Stop negativity- Most of u here are temporary
 

I've done my share of complaining about the N900 and I don't have one, either.. but I was looking forward to buying a newer device to replace my N800 and the N900 is sorely lacking as a replacement and is, instead, a whole other device that I didn't want. I whine.. a lot. :) But I would suggest that it's constructive and reflects at least a good number of the maemo users that intentionally purchased Internet Tablets (pocket computers) and weren't trying to buy a phone (which, it would seem, some are trying to convince me the N900 isn't).

But, that said, I am interested to see what it DOES have and I simply sit in wait and hope for Nokia to make something more along the lines of what I want, and maybe a small business might like, in a price range I can accept for the purposes of a computing-first device that should be competing against netbooks rather than cell phones.

Well, OrangeBox was comedic relief. He was neither constructive nor accurate in anything he ever said, despite his claimed degrees and certifications to which you were supposed to prostrate and defer all your own knowledge and opinion to.

Were you, or have you ever been, a Nokia apologizer?

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Yes.

ETA:
I am not sure if you were directing that at me.. but I don't jump on people - as I said - that open threads with problems. I'll link them to other threads with the same problem, if thats the case. It's when I see you posting your problems into unrelated threads, or just to post, or creating 6 threads with the same complaint.. I start to get short.

Re: Stop negativity- Most of u here are temporary
 

i wasnt directing it at anyone specifically, just people in general

I agree with that, its probably a lot more frustrating for you as a mod/admin (or whatever you are) and yea multiple threads by the same person with the same topic is stupid too, regardless of it being a complaint or a compliment

Re: Stop negativity- Most of u here are temporary
 

I can definitely agree with that. I'm actually neither a mod nor admin - I'm just one of the psychotics around here that tend to like to help people just for the sake of helping people. I don't own an N900 but already know more about it's inner workings than some people who have had it since it came out.

I scan the "New Posts" all day and clean out as much as I can but I'm wayyy behind right now. Something like 400 threads.

But for me.. it's hard to help people in the middle of all the crap threads that get started.. it makes me get really picky about which ones I pay attention to and which I dont just by the title of the thread which is unfortunate - because someone people just make bad titles. Therefore they tend to go without help from some of us that try just because their title was too much like some other flame-fest going on.

However, back on your bold section: Because this is a Maemo forum, for the Maemo OS, I'm more forgiving of post after post of "N900 rules man!", even though I agree whole-heatedly it's useless, than I am of "N900 sucks a**!". The former, while useless, still has a positive environment and feel to it - the latter is simply negative, creates negative opinions in the readers, makes people defensive - and historically - causes flamewars. A lot more than the former, anyway.

Apparently the term "whining" is a victim of semantics. I'll get off the axle. ;)

Re: Stop negativity- Most of u here are temporary
 

Finlly someone wrote what i had in mind for a while!!!

I realy like this phone but evry time i check recent topics i get more and more depresed because of the 'i want to complein to feel better' threat

I think we have clear picture abut known issus so if you want to complain AGAIN abut something that IS KNOWN, please do it on difrent forum.
I think i got to emotional, but it was really anoying me as well.

Many thanks for all of you who work so hard to make this phone better dispite of all the compleins!

Re: Stop negativity- Most of u here are temporary
 

Complaints are good. All of these comments should let nokia know that business as usual doesnt cut it. Selling millions of pennys to subcontinent that can not afford good phones and are used to crappy customer service will not cut it in other parts of the world

Re: Stop negativity- Most of u here are temporary
 

Wow, Goober, that actually made some sense! Congratulations.
