Ugh. That’s unfortunate. I don’t really understand that, but I suppose some people get their entertainment in different ways.

Some of them state openly they have fun insulting Apple users. They think Apple users are "Stupid."

That is very unsavory. I had no idea. Pretty twisted way to amuse yourself in discourse with other adults, and quite un-Freeper-like, I might add.

It seems strange to me. I wouldn’t go into a thread where that was my sole purpose, to disrupt and insult people because the thread is about a certain computer or operating system. If it were about some kind of snake oil cancer treatment that was known to be a scam, sure, but...this? Very odd. This behavior is like a seamy underbelly I have been unaware of. (not the anti-Apple aspect, I have seen that before, but the weird accusations that you or others are “astro-turfing” the site.) I mean, who died and left them in charge? At least humblegunner has some kind of relationship with Jim Robinson to back up his anti-blog pimp campaigns, whether I agree with them all the time or not.

But, it is Jim Robinson’s site. I presume he expects people to act like adults, engage in real discourse and work it out among ourselves and doesn’t want to be drawn into squabbles. I can’t blame him.

That is what I would expect.
