Default what's Better? LEAK VS NO LEAK

Personally I think RIM is in the WRONG by putting the plug on the whole leaks thing. I don't know what the harm is . If they had done this 6 months ago when the storm came out , do you know how many people would have returned their storms? Imagine running on .75 from December till early June when .148 got official ? would you have been able to do that? HLEL NO!!! LEAKS AND HYBIRDS SAVED MY STORM!! when I got my storm in Feb. I had on .75 for 2 hours before upgrading. then when .114 let me down BBcrackman saved my storm and made it awesome . So let's hear what you think? Should RIM let loose some leaks as they are not really hurting anybody and making their customers HAPPY? Or should they continue down this path because it is "better" for the consumers.

LOL I agree, I think the culture of the storm is really weird versus other blackberries . I had the curve and pearl and bold. I didn't really care much about OS'S until 4.5 came out . I upgraded only once or twice. I have upgraded more on the storm than on my bold,pear and curve combined!! I must say i've come to enjoy it and seeing all the little changes that come with every OS.

I'm not really sure why people can't understand this: RIM does not leak OS's. The carriers do.

There are MANY people, more than likely the majority of Storm owners in the world that ran .75 until .148 was official (or whatever their carrier released)

You need to understand, CrackBerry makes up a VERY small percentage of Blackberry owners.

I know of 2 member right off the top of my head that kept .75 until Verizon released .148. shaydakiss and Morf32.

Would I like to see another leak? Sure, something to play with, fun to try. My phone runs fine at the moment, so I could care less. ****, I was cool with .109 and still am. But I am curious about this type of thing, so I update.

I think a "smart" leak is a good leak. That means, don't leak a build that you tested and had major issues just to leak it. Leak something that's fairly stable. That way people won't complain that they can't do regular stuff, like answer the phone.

First of all, If you don't know the rules then you shouldn't post. Second, I know howarmat and I are pretty much studs. We're the enforcers of the official and unofficial rules of CB.

Btw the first two unofficial rules of CB are similar to fight club's, but they're about leaks.

I'll try to see If I can find em somewhere and PM since they're "flame bait'" rofl!
