Sorry to start such a uproar....just not sure why Ronen posting on his site is his problem or BBFs problem. Lets face it, this site is around to get traffic...you should all be thanking Ronen to some extent (and probably are secretly) because without all of the beta isssues and non-beta issues that people and other inquiries that come up this site would have not traffic, which means no advertising money coming in. The fact is sites like this are supported by advertising just like our friends at Yahoo, Google and MSN. The more traffic and the more click throughs that come from BBF to the advertisers the more money for the site.

Yes it is more work for everyone that runs the site and for those of us that are just BB fans that want to be part of a community that can experiment with new software and post our experiences and help each other out. However, if it was not for the revenue from the advertisers the support would decrease and the site would no longer be the greatest BB forum around. Also, the "Beta You Than Me" group would not have been started if it was such a problem to help out with the posters. In fact, it would not surprise me if BBF created that group because it was expected to get the most traffic and was charging more for ad space because of it (which by the way was brilliant from a revenue and marketing perspective) if I do say so myself.

Finally, don't give me this ethics garbage. You have no ethical obligations to police others actions. Your only obligation is to comply with the terms of your NDA with RIM and not enforce it with others. So don't get altruistic on us all, PLEASE!!!!!!!
