Those are good points, Pantera, but I disagree with one. Most if not all Apple bashing I saw were either the result of trolls that bash everything else as well or a direct reply to an "apple rules" post that is inherently a provocation.

Not in itself, no, mostly unbiased comparison, launches, discussions, company politics go unhit, but registering on a Nokia forum and posting that an identical feature is better is going to atract some name calling.

There is a difference between someone believing he or she is superior and having that person jumping naked on your dinner table, genitalia flapping, claiming to wwoooooo! rock harder. After a while it gets really old.

Every now and then some person pops in and calls everyone fanbois (in spite of ample complaint), idiots, whatever. This behavior deters from open arms receiveing of new opinions.

Few "bashings", if any, happen to a well formed, thought out post. If they do, please report the post to a mod. We have enough users to not miss a few. Especially now that we have fresh rules. I am yet to see mods encouraging such behavior.
