Why is MacRumors getting a lot of hate?

[cube]

And - bizarre though it may seem, and unpleasant though they are - successful trolls appear to have developed some serious skills, as it takes a perverse degree of being able to recognise and finesse matters so that one is able to skate on the right side of - that is, an unsuspended side of - what might be considered trolling.

I have recently read a post by /r/Apple mods at Reddit saying "We’re watching this place slowly turn into something akin to the MacRumors forums".

I don't understand why so many people like to hate on MacRumors. This site have been online for a very long time reporting the latest on Apple news. Moderators on the forums allow everyone to experience his opinion and criticism, unlike other places where you will be banned for making any comment that is not considered a "compliment".

Forum members here are very friendly and I get a lot of help from them, and I have seen them help many more others. So why the hate?

well, this place does seem to be home to some of the pickiest, demanding, most difficult to please and unreasonable customers in the known world.

perhaps that's it?

it's not a macrumours problem per se, but there are plenty of unreasonably fussy and difficult to please types here.

There's also the problem of Apple only catering to mass market needs.

I wonder if it's more of a millennial issue ?

Those who find PRSI toxic should check out some other sites.
Even the comments sections of many newspapers are appallingly offensive.
I find posters here to be knowledgeable and restrained.
