So the censorship we see here on FR starts at the very top.
On the plus side they are selling a lot of the phones with the poorly designed antenna.

What censorship on FR? Is there another story here besides the one you posted? Sounds kinda big. And if “at the top” you mean Jim or John, shouldn’t you ping them out of courtesy? Please elucidate.

“What censorship on FR? “
The macbots attempts to keep anyone who disagrees off ‘mac’ threads and to keep any information that is not mac positive off FR.

Mr. Peel and I have the original iPhone and just upgraded to the iPhone4. We absolutely love it. It is so much faster, it has a stunningly clear display. We are in a fringe area and noticed our dropped calls have significantly decreased with the new phone. Found a couple bugs (facetime)- but nothing worth a “don’t buy” rant.

Is this a ‘Modified limited hangout’ or the standard ‘Hang out’?

I never have liked MAC junk and I never will. But it is great entertainment watching the Macbots defend their church and make outlandish claims that they are ABSOLUTELY virus proof and don't even need to waste time and memory by installing a security package.
THEY JUST CAN'T be hacked. It's NOT POSSIBLE! And anyone who tries to say otherwise, or provides evidence to the contrary, ARE FOREVER DAMNED! ( / hyperventilation)

Meanwhile, you sound like the NAACP talking to/about the Tea Party... < /roll eyes>
To: MrsEmmaPeel
From what I’ve read the dropped calls issue is very dependent on your location. The more cell towers you have in the immediate area the less of a problem.

Of course if you make that argument then they’ll argue they have never said they are hack proof.

You mean the silly pissing matches I’ve seen regularly between macbots and windows afficionados? I never saw that as censorship, just pissing matches. I’ve never owned a mac so I can’t really weigh in either way. But apparently no one got censored, so I guess the “top” of FR is exhonerated.

Now, I’m not saying some macbots haven’t been obnoxious or smug. Some, not all, have. Just haven’t seen a whole lot of censoring going on.

When people make the argument that only positive mac material should be allowed its censorship. When they say only certain people should be allowed to post their views on a public forum its censorship.
