The thread I was referencing where Star Traveler started calling all windows developers unethical. It happened to be a thread about a iPhone developer who was writing their own fake reviews and were banned by Apple.

I don't believe that Star Traveler called all Windows developers unethical, although I'd have to review the comments... and the thrust of the thread was that once Apple was made aware of the unethical activity of the app developer, they were banned. Where were the attacks on WINDOWS users. Where were the ad hominem attacks on Windows users personally attacking them for attributes not related to Windows. C'mon find them, show us, Driftdiver... and show them in the context you claimed: insulsts to a Windows user from a Mac user in a Windows topical thread.

“I don’t believe that Star Traveler called all Windows developers unethical”

On thread which Star Traveler started - http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/chat/2402373/posts?q=1&;page=1

His first post -

“Apple people/users don’t take kindly to any “scammer developers” in this computer space... :-)

A warning to any Windows developers (and their ilk...), don’t try scamming the system in the Apple computer space... “

To which I responded in post 3 “Thats rather offensive”

Star Travel posted in 14 “Yeah, an unfortunate consequence to having some Windows developers show up for the part”

and his post 18 “ LOL... I see you haven’t come across what the Apple users know about Windows and their developers... :-)

For such a crappy system, it’s no wonder that that sort of mentality will carry over into the Apple/Macintosh sphere... it’s take a few years to straighten them out... “

and

in post 57 he said “Where things go downhill into a deep hole to never get out of... is when “Windows” is mentioned... LOL... “

and in 58 “Just me being “pro-active” before the Windows users get “cranked up”... :-) “

Star Traveler and I have clashed before and this thread is a good example of who the real troll is. He even admits to baiting windows people for his personal entertainment.

So ya see Swordmaker, you asked for an example and thanks to Google you have the one you doubted me on. You even posted to this particular thread. So you were wrong.

Again, its not the company, product, OS, or overly high prices. Its the lame infantile snarky comments from mac people like Star.
