Guys I have a question. I've been thinking about jail breaking my iPhone but is it dangerous for the phone? I just need to know before I do it.

Jailbreaking is safe as long as you follow some guidelines. You should understand you are making it possible to run unsigned code on your device. If you do it make sure you use Mobileterminal to change the root and wireless passwords from the default value "alpine". Also only use reputable default repositories until you learn about certain developers beta repos. Honestly though the guide is a bit out of date. Explaining DFU mode is a waste of time and makes it sound complicated...
My 2 cents...
Not all potential jailbreakers are on 6.0. As such, they may need the dfu explanation.
Your solution to a non-issue is to offer free advertisements to other sites rather than offer the help here?I guess that's true if they have an old device. Maybe it would be better just to point them to other sites that separate out the instructions based on the device and iOS version.
