Well, if it's a support board, wouldn't that make this even more salient? As far as I've heard, apple doesn't even really want to acknowledge that there is a problem.
Lots of times when I'm looking for support, part of what I'm looking for is if other people are having the same problem. Linking an article detailing specifically why the problem you're having exists is very helpful when the company that built your defective phone doesn't want to help.
- ROFISH 16y agoExcept that there's plenty of discussion about this on Apple's boards. This looks to be a case of deleting a bunch of "me too" topics. As a board admin myself, I like to make sure things are on topic and free of trolls. This Apple antenna thing is like a magnet for rabid pro-Android fans gloating, rabid anti-Apple haters schadenfreude, Internet trolls who do it for the lulz, and the poor people who actually have an issue. I really feel for the poor board moderators who have to sort between the four.
- blhack 16y agoI'm having trouble understanding. Is it okay for people to talk about the issue, and to reference an article talking about how, no, it really does exist, or not? Am I missing something here? Oversimplifying it? Can you imagine the shitstorm if microsoft released a copy of windows that crashed every time you tried to use the sound feature, then refused that that was happening, then told people to just not use the sound, then banned any postings on their support forums which referenced an article confirming that it was, in fact, happening?
- illumin8 16y agoThat would suck, but a more apt analogy is if Ford made a car that had a defect, and Chevy owners created accounts on Ford owner forums specifically to complain about the Ford, even though they didn't own one, and even though they had never driven one before.
