Restoring to stock is a viable solution... Sorry if that fact bothers you so much. Is it really trolling to tell the obvious truth? No, it's not. Physician, heal thyself...
It's an option. For what he's trying to do, it's NOT a viable option. We get it. You don't like jailbreaking. You've engaged in some silly personal war because you believe we're trying to "stick it to the man" simply because you lack the capacity to understand why anyone would have a preference other than yours. I don't know of any jailbreakers that care you don't want to jailbreak. As I've said many times, it's your device. Do what makes you happy with it.
As a moderator, you're a representative of the site. If your first response is to treat the poster like a child because he wants to jailbreak, you're being a terrible representative. Your knowledge in jailbreaking has diminished as you've moved away from the community. You really don't belong in these forums anymore. You only offer negative remarks and rarely provide those with questions relevant, useful answers. You come down here purely to troll, nothing else.
Your answer was similar to this: Someone takes their car into a mechanic because their headlights are out and they can't figure out why. They ask for help. The mechanic says "well, one way to solve that problem is to buy a new car."
While the mechanic is correct, the solution is asinine. You don't jump right to that. You work your way through troubleshooting and maybe, in a worst case scenario, take a look at that option. It's not the fact that restoring has the potential to fix the problem that bothers me. It's that you're so incredibly disrespectful that you believe the user doesn't deserve to make their choice in a way that's different than yours. You're plenty old enough to stop acting like a child. It's time you do so.
