Who runs this community?

Question

I post a questions, the first reply start off with "You are wasting your time" and clearly does NOT answer my questions. I reply to that saying I have higher expectations for Apple than other cheaper products.
My post gets deleted for not meeting community guidelines, and the above post which INSULTED my initial question, is marked as 'Answered my question'
So my question for this post is - who runs this? Apple or some volunteers? Marking a post as 'Solved Problem' on my behalf that tells me "You are wasting your time" is not usefull!
At this point I'd like to delete the original posit since clearly "I'm wasting my time" on here.
Sheesh!

"You are wasting your time" and clearly does NOT answer my questions.
Actually, it does answer your question. Maybe not all that politely, but it is correct. Like virtually any other such device (iPad, Blackberry, Samsung), Apple does not make their own batteries. They get them from the same very few suppliers as everyone else. And like all such "performance" claims by manufacturers, they are based on absolute best circumstances and use. Typical use will not yield those results.
who runs this? Apple or some volunteers?
Apple owns and operates these boards. Other users handle almost 100% of the questions. Rarely will you see an Apple employee posting an answer. Of those, it is almost always one of the hosts explaining something related to the use of these boards, not an answer to a technical question.
Marking a post as 'Solved Problem' on my behalf that tells me "You are wasting your time" is not useful!
Well, only you can do that. No one else, not even the hosts can in any way mark a post Solved or Helpful. Only the person who started a topic can. So in the case of the only other topic under your name, you awarded the Solved and Helpful points. Therefore, your claim of someone else doing so "on your behalf" isn't possible.
