forum etiquette
I know this is supposed to be an unwritten rule, but apparently common sense is not enough.
Can we get an addendum to the ToU?
Here's some basic forum etiquette rules...

ATTENTION MOBILE PHONE USERS/BUYERS
There are a lot of factors that go into making a mobile phone purchase, especially when you are signing a contract. The large majority of sales consultants are knowledgeable and don't mind spending the time to answer your questions and demonstrating how the product will work for you.

What has happened to Phonescoop?
Your forums are horribly cheapening the experience of this website. What used to be a place for people to come and learn about the industry has now morphed into a place that questions aren't even being asked. Your forums are now a place where users mud sling against each other. People using the forums and abusing them have considerably less intelligence than the persons who used to use these forums wisely.
I'm not sure this can be fixed, but I know after 4 years - I am moving on to the next best thing.
I read these forums and I just sigh and just remember the good old days...
