Which again, they are ALLOWED to do, its THEIR web site, and they don't want people being disrespectful, which is a general rule for life...

Or perhaps a little civility and respect is owed and can't hurt you. The man is not even dead 24 hrs. If you aren't sad at his passing or have nothing to say in respect... try this: Don't post at all.
Mods warned that disrespectful or offcolor comments were not going to be tolerated. Not very hard to understand all the infractions given that statement.

Don't see what the fuss is about.
He was a mediocre at best, don't know why every one calls him a genius.
Oh well, I was waiting for this day to buy Apple shares.

The infracted posts I saw were a bit on the rude side. I don't blame them for doing it.

Is on a forum page dedicated to someone who just died really the right TIME and PLACE for this discussion? Originally Posted by Azuazu

It is their site, but you are implying here that "disagreeing with a moderator" is being disrespectful and worthy of infraction. If that ever becomes the norm here, I'll stop posting completely. Originally Posted by Sigman

Good. People acting like douches over someone dying pisses me off. I hope they ban every single one of them for life. Will make these forums a better place.

Its common courtesy to not speak ill of the dead regardless of your opinion of the person. The mods are acting in a way that they see fit. I agree with the mods completely.

If rudeness itself were infractable, this site would have zero traffic. The mods are letting their emotions cloud their judgment. Originally Posted by BatteredRose

All we ask is that you do not disrespect the recent dead. Cheering for the fact that someone died, no matter who that person is, is not acceptable.
If you want to discuss issues with Apple in general, that's a topic for another thread (if you can make such a thread constructively, not flaming/trolling).
If you disagree with these rules or particular moderators, you're welcome to PM me or Boubouille directly.
