>I would like to apologize for the email that I sent you yesterday. I was in a really bad mood because my wife and I had had an argument, and I was reading your site and I fired off a shitty email without thinking about it. I really do appreciate what you do for the community.

Josh Barrow is obviously an ungrateful moron who doesn’t recognize when someone is doing the world a favor out of the kindness of his heart. It’s not your job to do this, and you shouldn’t have to deal with that kind of disrespect, but rest assured that there are plenty of us out there who are grateful for the time, effort, and money you’re putting into this.

I will never understand these people. They get everything for free, do not donate a cent and still complain. I really don’t get it how one can be so ignorant and arrogant.

I always thought that this is a serious project, the post above is a farce and childish!

Ste, your work is *much* appreciated it. Hope you don’t let stuff like this get to you :)
February 17th, 2008 at 6:52 am
I would vote Ste for world domination.
February 17th, 2008 at 7:43 am
fuck that guy. I agree the developers need to reach some kind of a standard, it shouldn’t be your job to ‘hack’ everything to work.
February 17th, 2008 at 8:21 am
Yah can you please update your packages cause I can’t download shit off the installer and its pissing a lot of people off right now.

Don’t let it it get to you Ste. You are doing a great job!
February 17th, 2008 at 10:51 am
No, I probably shouldn’t let it get to me, but I clearly did, or I would have just pressed ‘delete’ when I saw his email.

You should black list the imbecile and get it to package his own repository. Along with all the others that think alike. Thanks for your work Ste, you got my donation and you should get one from all your users.

and only children publishing someone’s words and email address…

1) If you email me, I’m free to do with it what I choose. One should remember the advice that you should never say or write anything that you wouldn’t want to see on the front page of the New York Times the next morning.
2) I’m sick and tired of people bitching at me, when what they get, they get for free. Just as when one choses not to vote, when one doesn’t pay, one gets no right to bitch. You don’t like what I do? Fine. You’re free to take your business elsewhere. Please do.
On the other hand, if you have polite questions or constructive criticism to offer, then you are more than welcome to share it.

If I email you in PRIVATE it is private! if I write here in public, it is for everybody! this here is just another iphone blog, not the NYTimes.
If you are not able to stand others opinions, even when their opinions are harsh, maybe you are at the wrong place. I founded this place:
http://www.ball-saal.com we have trouble every day, if I would take the daily crap we get serious I would be already closed in psychiatry.
“”You don’t like what I do? Fine. You’re free to take your business elsewhere. Please do.”"
like I said already, this is a very good iphone blog, so stick with what it is, blaming others is childish.

I don’t know why you seem to think that email is private. Once it’s in my Inbox, it’s my property, to do with as I wish unless, of course, you have explicitly asked me to keep it confidential.
As for the rest, I do believe I agreed, earlier, that I shouldn’t have let it get to me.

Fuck em Ste. I agree, an email you receive is yours to do with as you wish. And anyone on the net should know, if you don’t want it out there, don’t put it on the net.

Hi Ste!
I can’t belive that people like that are still on this planet and they expect that you do this for free and fast!!!
As for the guy above, Stefan, please realize that this might be a “everybody’s / public” blog, it is made, updated and alowed only by STE and it’s here because of him!!, so why don’t you stay on your own blog that I never heard of!!!!
Anyway, I decided to ask for donations from all my friends and their friends to give you all the money they give me:) That way, I will do something good for you as you do for all of us. Yeah, I know its all a big time consuming to do all the phones, but hey, I do it beacuse I enjoy it and people loved the ideea of me collecting the money to DONATE on your site:)
THANK YOU for all your hard work and I will donate some just so you have at least a free lunch on me:)
Later,

STE, your work is very appreciated!
You offer a lot to the iphone world, and we are all glad.
Just was wondering if you had a chance to adress the ste source not working?
Thank you for everything.
