something really needs to be done.

I realised the other day that this forum is now THE SINGLE point of contact for me for the status of 800/770, and has been for the last five or six months.

In the early days of having a 770 eighteen months ago there were a few places I used to get info from, but ITT developed into THE authoritive, entertaining and educational resource. Hell, I probably wouldn't even know about the 800 if not for here, or certainly wouldn't have been aware to buy it on the first day it became avaiable.

So, I love this forum. But the last few months have seen a dearth of development on apps (apart from the wonderful "simple launcher", which does exactly what it says on the tin and should be bought by nokia for out of the box inclusion asap).

But mainly of course, it has been ruined by these "flame wars", which in reality seem to be one person with multiple accounts. seen this happen to forums before, seen the same results.

Personally, I don't even know if Texrat is "real" - I'm open to the idea that Nokia know the importance of this place (it's prominent on tableteer) and so maybe he is an employee who works in "street teaming" in some way, and even if that were the case, hey, great! learnt lots of snippets of info and he's got things like faceplates to keep the natives happy etc, it's all good.

Or maybe he really is a guy who lucked out in a job that happened to involve working on a product he feels genuine enthusiam for and likes to get involved and share what info he can.

Either way, he doesn't deserve all this crap. And nor do the general readers of the forum.

Threads like these are always funny for a page or two. but it's time to stop them now eh?

Any ideas?
