Respect is earned, my delusional friend. It is not given freely.

Many posters are childish, some are outright immature.
Speaking of yourself here? Childish, like creating a thread telling everyone to not use their phones while driving? Who in hell died and made you king of telling us what to do?

Immature? Because we as a masses here, don't agree with your naivety?


Personal attacks, sarcastic remarks and the lack of respect to other members are missing far too often.

Personal attacks? You ain't seen no personal attacks yet. But such things can indeed be arranged.

Being too emotional and in some cases fanatic turns some threads into flame wars.
Nope. Not flame wars. Just conversations YOU don't agree with, which in turn you call flame wars because it's a lot easier for you.

There is so much that we can learn from the iPhone community.

Disclaimer: I don't own an iPhone and don't plan to own one either, but I follow their forums to learn their perspective and I can tell you that they are so much more civilized than we are.

Disclaimer: I don't really give two rat turds whether or not you own an iPhone. If you don't, you should go buy yourself one and see just how crappy it really is in general. I have owned iphones. They are fine for what they're designed to be used as. Simple communication devices with a pretty interface, and a decent multimedia player. But don't you compare the iPhone to the N900... again. They are two totally different devices in form and function. Sure, they can both make calls, play music and videos, but realistically, that's where the similarities end.


Before you start posting insulting remarks to this thread take a deep breath and check out some of the iPhone forums out there and LEARN that there is a better way.
Insulting? To whom, exactly? How do you know I wasn't insulted at your calling some of these guys "egotistical". Some of these "egotistical" guys bring us something called software, that we can use on our devices. I don't consider someone with more skills than I in a particular subject "egotistical".

To all of the "egotistical" software writers here.... Thank you.


Peace.
I prefer war. It weeds out the beatniks and the pacifists.
