Well, if they did read their own board, they would surely get rid of those MVP's and mods. They're a disgrace for Apple - they represent the worst kind of stuck-up Apple fanboys.

Yes that points thing breeds pomposity for sure, but it gets Apple 'tech support' for free. And it keeps people off the street I guess.
 
I don't get this fuss.

The official Apple forum is not supposed to be a nerd-tat place. If you want to discuss jailbreaking (which is useless for casual users, voids Apple's warranty and is a recipe for various issues), use appropriate forums.
 
Take up Marathon running, as it is all you do is run around in circles going nowhere. Or you could walk into the nearest police station and discuss the best ways to help others become involved in theft...of any kind!
 
Took a lot of balls to post that on Apples forums. Great job.... wasteland...
 
this isn't Android. Assimilate or be terminated, human.

haha +1

I get the "their forum, their rules" but some people are just way way way too politically correct/anal over there. I am mainly talking about the true apple fanboys. the ones that swore allegiance to apple and think the products are the best out of the box and do not need modifications, when you question a feature you are immateriality hit with "then get a Android".

I've seen a number of absurdly over-moderated forum-esque sites (since a forum implies freedom of speech) run by people who have no clue what the heck a forum even is. There are always sites with moderators who are on power trips and just act like jerks. It's not surprising that Apple has put them on there to censor information about Jailbreaking, since they are too stupid to realize that Jailbreaking helps them sell more hardware.
 
I had that same issue. It sucks how horribly they are handling it. Someone needs to make a class action lawsuit against them for it.

Don't like the Apple forum, don't join. Common sense.

Then there are people who think if something happens they don't like, look for someone to sue. How ridiculous. :rolleyes:
 
So on one hand, you've got a person that writes an almost 1,900-word post over on Apple's Support Community that contains (1) no question for the community and (2) a lot of commentary on Apple's policies and procedures.

And on the other hand, you've got Apple and their Support Community Terms of Use, which say:

Unless otherwise noted, do not add Submissions about nontechnical topics, including:

1. Speculations or rumors about unannounced products.
2. Discussions of Apple policies or procedures or speculation on Apple decisions.

How is this post not a violation of the terms of that community?
