Yes it seems some of the users of the store are quite acerbic and rude. They download applications for free that some one put time and effort into, and then make slanderous and rude comments if the application is not to their liking. I published an application, but then withdrew it after some very scathing comments. It was just a simple Black Jack game (no ads or commercial interest), yet some of the feedback was rather venomous. I don't itend to publish again until I can sell applications at the store. No point in giving away free stuff, if I'm just going to be slandered. It might be mistake to have a free app stores, too many users now expect to be able to get something for nothing. I just wrote the application for myself anyway, and I use it all the time. You'd think people would just be glad that they can get free software, and not complain. If I don't like an app, I just un-install it, and don't complain.
