Every so often I see rowdy people like you turning interesting threads into personal quarrels and flame wars. So many people already wrote that they want to talk about the E90 and not about your emotional problems and your opinions about other websites and their owners, but you just won't stop. WHO do you think cares here about what you think about me? No one, not even I. And I already told you so. But your intention is apparently to keep the flame burning. ANONYMOUSLY, as always. What a COWARDICE.
Everybody can easily check who started the argument in this thread, who turned turned it to a personal row. It definitely wasn't me, and it's as easy to check as reading my posts and your and Orlowski's answers to them. In this whole thread, I haven't used even a single rude or offensive word, nor did I write anything personal. Your posts are the best example of what I got in exchange - they're SOAKING with unfriendly personal comments.
It's AMAZING that people like you offend me here and stubbornly keep spamming this thread with personal and completely off-topic comments yet at the same time they say that it is me who misbehaves. And it's also amazing that there is NO MODERATOR TO REACT. If such a thing happened on my forums, myself or other moderator would take care of it long ago, especially if it concerned the owner or editor of a friendly (? - not so sure about it anymore) website. I'm starting to think that defaming me and my website is actually CONVENIENT for owners of this website, hence no reaction.
It's very sad that Steve Litchfield ignores this. I took my part in this discussion to SUPPORT you Steve because I felt that accusing you of being sponsored by Nokia by one of your members was very unfair and untrue. I didn't mind that you used my name several times in your article, even though you didn't even ask me, and I think you should have. Now that I am being attacked this way on your website because of coming here to support you, I thought you'd at least express your opinion. But you apparently don't care. OK, I've learned something new today.
I hope he goes away and leaves us to continue discussing symbian things
First of all, it is YOU who stubbornly and permanently disturbs talking about Symbian in this thread by posting such personal comments. Secondly, I am a registered, rightful member here signing my posts with my real name, while you are not even a member of this community, stubbornly attacking me ANONYMOUSLY despite my numerous requests to sign your posts if you intend to criticize or judge other people. Thirdly, if you wanted to say something to me knowing that I'm reading, you should have simply addressed it to me. Writing to someone in third person is a plain BOORISHNESS.
on this much better website which he is obviously jealous of.
If majority of this website's users are like you, then I'm afraid there is nothing to be jealous of. Quantity and quality are two different things. One of the good things about My-Symbian is that we get rid of rowdy people like you very quickly which helps the remaining users benefit from discussions on a DECENT level. I think I must have banned you on my site for your trouble-making and rowdy attitude and that's the reason why you hate me so much.
Regarding comparisons between this website and My-Symbian, you know, my website was launched in 1999 and during almost 7 years between 1999 and 2006 it was the most popular and the largest Symbian OS community in the Internet, and actually the only one that counted during the first two or three years. That's ENOUGH for me to be happy and feel satisfied. AAS' current popularity, surpassing My-Symbian's, is the OBVIOUS RESULT of them going commercial, building a large team of editors, being London based just several kilometres away from Symbian and Nokia's one of the largest European divisions and having a much bigger budget than I (for isntance: I do not attend conferences or fairs simply because I can't pay for the flight and hotel). I run my website as a hobby in my spare time, I'm located far from Symbian and Nokia, I run my website alone and, the most importantly, I DO NOT WANT my site to be a business. I am HAPPY with what I achieved over the last 8 years despite many limitations and difficulties compared to AAS. I do not have any reasons to be jealous of anything after those successful 8 years. If you have any problems with that, live with them. They're YOUR problems, not mine.
