Recently, there have been a wave of Apple Fanboys flooding the forum with false information, deliberately trying to start fights, and more than likely creating multiple accounts to agree with themselves. ( Kind of wierd eh? ) Now I can see nothing happening to correct these issues, and *I* just received an "infraction" for calling someone a fanboy, in a response to a complete garbage post, once again, trying to start fights. It was cited under a "personal attack" Well, whatever, sorry and if I broke the rules so be it.
But, WHY is nothing VISIBLY being done to curb these people, or person, from posting complete inaccurate information, ON PURPOSE, and deliberately starting fights? We all know who they are. And I'm not saying ban all the Apple Fankids, not by a long shot. But lets keep them from starting posts like this huh?

Now common sense dictates this guy knows these are two different phones, and is just trying to start trouble. There are tons of threads/posts like this and it *Seems* nothing is being done about it. If it is... well can we have a visible result? It is frustrating to have to constantly counter misinformation, (and I usually wouldn't bother, but if we don't, how would a newcomer know the difference?) and after so many times countering the same EXACT ARGUMENT, people get frustrated, ( I know I do ) And things get out of hand. Truth is, if the person/people I called fanboys, or whatever, didn't post inaccurate garbage, ON PURPOSE, JUST TO START FIGHTS, then I wouldn't get that way. And I'm not the only one!
How do I know they are trying to start trouble?
Well many threads start off with
"Why Android Sucks"
or "iPhone is better blah blah"
You get the gist, and these people often have less than 10 posts, and then the "trolls" chime in and agree with the OP/Themselves.
This site is called AndroidForums, and if I wanted to read about iPhone in EVERY FREAKING THREAD, I would join an APPLE FORUM.
Sorry about the rant, but *I* Felt this needed to be said. Maybe I'm totally wrong here, but we'll see.
