Here is an answer to the ATT fanboys that are blasting Verizon Wireless for buying Alltel and therefore taking the Best to the Biggest.

You all are hating because someone can buy a customer base. First, Verizon Wireless is buying Alltel at a good rate and picking up quick spectrum in rural areas that VZW didn't have coverage before. 2nd, it is an easier transition then Cingular and Att; and Sprint and Nextel due to the obvious reason...technology.

Now, let us say they "bought" their way to a top spot. In this world of crumbling financial empires, doesn't it show that one company was fiscally responsible enough to be in a position to buy Alltel. VZW doesn't operate at a low profit like some other carriers. No, they keep thier busines...

Verizon does invest a lot of time in money into maintaining their network. They learned from the old AT&T Wireless, which did not do this, and that's why it had to sell itself.

And honestly, even the new AT&T does not invest the same effort into their network. They think that having a so-so network is ok. Well I showed them! I've had Verizon for over a week now!

Actually it is a better network. My 20 year old neighbor couldn't wait to get out of her AT&T contract and switch to Verizon. She couldn't handle dropped calls and having no service in her house or at her college...despite the "they have better phones" mantra, and you know how important that cell phone is to a kid...

Putting someone on blast because of their opinions is no worse than the "troll" attitude you are degrading.

So he has negative stuff to say about verizon,that's what helps us improve, just like we do at&t, or sprint, or whatever. Just because he posts it doesn't make him a troll, makes him a part of the community. You can ignore his comments and you don't have to read what he is saying, and if you do, respond directly to that post, don't put him on blast,and when you do respond, respond intelligently.

You bring up great points and I agree with a lot of what you say, actually all of it i'm sure, but stooping to a level of calling people a fanboy and a troll is no better than someone putting verizon on blast for bias and prejudice opin...

1st...I didn't "Call" anyone a troll. I stated what a troll is. Yes, it gets so old on here to see the same stuff...over and over and over. Crippled phones, nickle and diming...etc. People want Sprint pricing with Verizon's customer care and network and GSM phones.

I quit posting on here because of ones that continually post the same rehashed crap over and over. Nevermind...I will go back to real forums like Howard Forums where you can get actual information without the childish bickering.

Beyond all things you did call him a troll, wether directly or indirectly, don't try to act or say that wasn't the intention of your definition of a troll.

I am just pointing out the obvious, you complain about him being a troll, **indirectly not directly** and complain about the childish bickering, after you launch an all out assault on one person. I'm not saying he is or is not a troll, I stopped posting here long long ago and haven't pulled up phone scoop in ages, just came to see what news was being relayed on the forums over here and decided to throw a few things in to help moderate the silliness so maybe the people that are sticking around don't have to deal with crap that isn't needed. I agreed with your observations and your resp...

To at&t wireless guy: Why don't you stop trying to be everyone's butt monkey? You are like some ex-smoker or born again Christian chiming in every time some dork calls someone a troll.


Honey, go suck an egg.

Go suck an egg? Seriously? That's your retort? How's about "Sit on it", or "Kiss my grits!"...

Wow. Go suck an egg... Guess I really have been wasting my time arguing with a fourteen year old... 🙄
