I wasn't sarcastic in the least.

I had the iPhone 3G, with it the Apple usb charger. That was my one and only Apple device. I never actually tested the charger with anything besides the iPhone.

So it comes as a shock to me that they wouldn't work with other devices.
And if they don't. that just sucks (seems a fitting for Apple choices).

Look at this forum, and the web in general, and you'll find lots of people wondering why their Apple (or compatible, as most sadly are) charger won't charge their N9. So I felt I had a valuable contribution to make. Sarcasm isn't valuable.

I'm looking at this forum and can't find anything related to Apple chargers. No, there is NOT many people complaining about their Apple chargers (there's more important Apple stuff to complain about). I think your "contribution" is valuable. But your sarcastic and obnoxious approach to the topic isn't valuable. Don't try to suppress those willing to engage in your topic if there aren't that many to begin one with, just saiyan.
