    In addition to the Mac-Forums Community Guidelines, there are a few things you should pay attention to while in The Lounge.

    Lounge Rules
    • If your post belongs in a different forum, please post it there.
    • While this area is for off-topic conversations, that doesn't mean that every conversation will be permitted. The moderators will, at their sole discretion, close or delete any threads which do not serve a beneficial purpose to the community.

    Understand that while The Lounge is here as a place to relax and discuss random topics, that doesn't mean we will allow any topic. Topics which are inflammatory, hurtful, or otherwise clash with our Mac-Forums Community Guidelines will be removed.

Hypocrisy at its best!

As much as that logic is sound, it never seems to work out that way. If that were the case, there would be no fanboys since they'd all be shamed into silence. Unfortunately, they're louder than ever and it appears that this will be the case for some time to come.
Well, quite. That's why I try - though not always sucessfully! - to keep out of it :p

You get this behavior with any type of product. I take it you haven't ever visited an Auto forum. People routinely threaten each other with bodily harm over an insult to their Dodge Ram or Ford F-150. Some people are Ford fans and will buy nothing but. Others swear by Toyota or Chevy and claim Ford stands for Fix Or Repair Daily. But it is usually only the most hardcore who equate their personal identity and value with the products they buy who would actually argue about these things. Everyone else just gets on with their life and enjoys their purchase.
