So I have my MacRumors forum account for eleven years now and today I've deviced to leave. I cannot handle how negative and entitled this community has become on the whole; it's unbearable. Also, us international members have for years requested the giveaways be worldwide rather than US, but have been ignored and even our comments relative to this deleted as 'off topic'. Really? It's about respect in the end and you've lost mine MR. We all have contributed around for years. Enjoy your negative life. Get a real job, mods.
I agree with you. I've never been thanked for being a loyal contributor here. Recently, I had my wrist slapped by a moderator, and then I proceeded to exchange several messages with this moderator, apologizing for my "one word post", and then mentioning this very same concern. Even after several back-and-forth exchanges, this moderator absolutely resisted saying "thank you for being a long-time member" to me. It's all I wanted to hear. Simple, easy, but nope... they were just being the hard-nosed law enforcer. A real displeasing experience. I successfully removed MacDailyNews from my life, and I can do the same with MacRumors if this type of experience happens again.
Enjoy your free give-aways, US residents! You're more worthy than the rest of us.
