I can understand where he's coming from though. If you put a huge amount of effort into something, and no matter what you do, elements of the community that it's for rip it to shreds for no good reason, you'd find it hard to remain enthusiastic, nice and polite too. He was right when he said that some people here need to grow up. The constant bitching, moaning and mud slinging is unnecessary and tiring, particularly if you're one of the developers.

Some say that OS4 devs just need to accept that they are targets; but no, they didn't sign up for that. Being a customer (or potential customer) never justifies treating someone like dirt and you shouldn't expect someone to just sit there and take it.

So while his responses may not be pretty, I'm glad that someone was blunt enough to say what others are thinking.

Again you go about generalizing the whole community just because of the behaviour of a small minority. Calling the entirely community for childish and saying that 97% could burn is very offensive to most of their customers or potential customers. There are plenty of 4.1 owners who did not like this comments. I am one of those as well...

You have trolls or people who dont agree with your views in any community. You simply cannot please everyone and they really should not expect that everyone agrees with them either. I dont see why this should be taken personally when the majority is actually supportive and quite of them even bought their products.
