What's your favorite thing about iMore? I'll tell you for me it's the members here. The discussions for the most part are usually productive, whether you're a new member or one who's been around a while. It's a great opportunity to learn something about your device and help others. There's other forums to hang out and meet some great people and have fun. The reviews, how to's, forums, podcasts or even the sale specials. What's your favorite thing about iMore?

It is not just one thing in General, it's the whole package from the members to the topics.

[iOS Gravity]

Everything. Except for the spam.

[TurboTiger]

A learning tool and a problem solving solution.
Good Luck

Quick replies to questions. Thanks.

Just wish more people used it. There hasn't been anything posted in the iPad Air forum in two days.

Funnily enough, it seems CrackBerry still has more subscribers and activity than iMore! Ironic since less people are using BlackBerry phones.

Then again, I was always into BlackBerry news and updates. Apple isn't as exciting that way.

It's catering of like-minded people, and its community feel.

The way folks reply to a poster when they want to know how to get past the password protection on the stolen iPhone they now have.

The group of core users that stick around and, for the most part, have each other's back. This community has a lot of really wonky characteristics, and many of them, I feel, degrade the community...but the members are certainly not one of those things. To me, the members are the reason this place is relevant at all...

[joemd60]

Everything. 😃

[cyberpaw]

The way that iMore folk help each other out, especially the novice Apple users, who might be flamed on other sites. For the most part, people here seem to respect each other....

I enjoy interacting with all of you here, and also listening to Rene's podcasts. I find he's a great combination of informative and entertaining.

I think this phenomenon is the same for most Android Forums. It's because the devices are always needing to be modded. The iPhone, however, really doesn't. So only those who truly enjoy the tinkering will want to.

Also, it's more common for people to complain than to compliment. Since Apple products aren't usually giving consumers reason to complain, there is less feedback.

iMore? It's definitely the members. It's always nice to chat with other enthusiasts.

A doctoral dissertation could be written and published on the psychological make up CrackBerry posters. CB posters have intertwined their choice of mobile device with their self esteem and have banded together into a "we against the world" cult. Honest criticism of BlackBerry devices from an outsider is met with swift, unrelenting personal attacks from the masses. A BlackBerry user who points out shortcomings in owning a BlackBerry is branded a traitor by the masses. The attitude of superiority because of BlackBerry ownership reigns supreme on CrackBerry. Both amusing and sad.

Articles are great. Written word all the way, boo podcasts. Forumites seem barely able to string a coherent thought together, and fitting in has been very easy.

[cwbcpa]

As much as I like the articles and keeping up with apple products it is really chatting with members that is my favorite. This forum is the best of all the mobile nations forums in my opinion. I like to use different phones to see what's out there and just because it's fun. I don't see the criticism here that you see other places. Sure there is some, but not from the regulars on the forum. It's a very comfortable and welcoming forum. It's how it should be.

The IMore site reminds me of how the CrackBerry.Com site used to be. On IMore people help others out without the put downs and criticisms that are now on CrackBerry. When CrackBerry first came out it was a site where members helped out each other and provided knowledge now it's getting more and more a site of people putting down other members. I enjoy the IMore site since I see the professionalism and knowledgeability that brings me back many times a day. Plus I enjoy the articles from Renee and the staff as well as Kevin at CrackBerry

Helpful, friendships, knowdlegable

If you own one or consiersing one just because of your post count which here means nothing, You can start your own post and ask a question or if there is something you need to know, Ask it, You will get answers and don't stop at iPad Air, There are many forums for everybodies likings.

[Jaguarr40]

The members first and foremost and the interaction with friends you have made. Then there are the after parties.... OH excuse me I am thinking of something else!!!!!!

[BreakingKayfabe]

If I had to pinpoint one favorite thing it would be the fact that the members here, especially the ones that have been around a long time, don't feel the need to come in here and post articles, blogs, studies, etc. to defend that everyone is using an iPhone. This has become the norm over at the Crackberry forums. They remind me of hockey and soccer fans who always feel the need to prove that their sport is great by throwing out numbers and things of that nature. Always trying to defend their decision of a certain thing being their favorite. Or like people who are from certain places. Ever met someone from New York City? They'll let you know they're from there within 20 seconds and tell you how much the food over there and other things are better. Over here it has gotten much more helpful and has grown without a lot of clutter. Not to say that CB isn't helpful. I was at CB for a long time before jumping to Apple. It has just gotten cluttered at the other sites and iMore seems more organized while maintaining a good rep for being helpful.

I also think iMore takes on the personality of the editor-in-chief here. I like Rene's attitude and demeanor and it translates well here. The same argument could be made for the other sites. Kevin is a self-proclaimed fanboy and shows it. So the members take on that personality. Phil is smart and says some witty things. AC feels the same way. I guess what I'm saying is this place feels more like an office at the beach and the other places feel more Madison Ave. Which is a compliment, by the way. I think each of those guys are great in their own respect for what they do for each site. My hat's off to them.
