The other possible solution would be a more strict one:
After all, this is a Nokia forum, so no hate speech about Nokia or its devices is allowed.
Go and bugger off to Apple's or Google's forums (or whatever) and complain there about Nokia.

I have a better proposition:
Why not:
1. All posts should be approved by a Mod before being published.

2. If any post, with a content that doesn't fit in the general opinion of the users here, somehow sneaks through the Mod, the author of that post should be severely punished.
First punishment should be community condemnation.
Next follows: life-long imprisonment OR burning on the stake (author's decision).

3. If that doesn't help with the "bad" posts.. then ban all IP segments one by one till posts cease to appear.

Come on... get real... this is a public forum and it is a free world, so no one should be forced to accept other people opinion...
There should only be moderation on really legal stuff problems like publishing cracks etc...

And BTW this is not actually a Nokia forum!
This is the forum of the "Maemo open source community developing software around the Maemo platform". And that is a big difference... though it cannot be seen when reading most of the posts here...

Like... i am amazed how many people here talk about "competitors", "competition" etc... N900 may have competitors from a Nokia staff;s point of view, but from an open source community member's point of view there is no such thing as a competitor... there is only ALTERNATIVES... And that is what Open Source mostly is about...
