[Q] Where to begin with developing? - Android Apps and Games

I'm terribly sorry, I posted this in the wrong forum. That's what multiple tabs do for me.

Question???

Is it just me, or does it seem that there are more an more people posting things in the wrong section? For instance this thread was posted in the ROM Development section. Shouldn't it be in the Software section? It doesn't make sense to me. If people would take the time to read the wiki, the posting rules, and the Section Titles, then we wouldn't have such a chaotic mess on this forum. Is it possible to implement rules for new users requiring that the spend so many days just reading before they are able to make their first post?
I think its because some people see xda as a place to get quick answers, great roms, and nice apps.....but not interested in what this site is all about, as far as working with everyone, being disciplined enough to search first, ask for help second, and be respectful. Its just a sign of the times.....people want more but dont want to take simple steps to work within the guidelines.....just my 3 cents...
The Moderators move the thread that I mentioned in my original post to the appropriate section.
Does anyone else want to weigh in on this? If so, I will try to post a poll.
Yeh, you're right but it's not like you can tell them what to do and a poll isn't really necessary don't you think?
so what should we title this thread? the *****ing thread? it happens...it's the internet after all, as one of the prior posters had mentioned, people just act rude on the net because they can.... i just try and ignore them...

[Resolved] Meaning of OP next to names

I'm sorry if this is a stupid question and/or already answered, but what is the meaning of the |OP| next to some people's names ?
I'm sorry for a really basic question, but this section does say "This forum is for all questions, big or small, you might have."
Original Poster. The one who started the thread.
Thanks, I was just curious that's all. I'll change the thread to resolved now

The all new Q&A SubForum

So what exactly determines what belongs in the Q&A subforum? Clearly 90 % of general subforum give or take a few %, are questions of some sort. I understand when one is started with [Q] in title, it should belong there. Problem is half of the threads moved there do not. Some had a ? in title, some didnt. Others looked no different than any other thread in general that didnt get moved with the same sort of questions.
I tried updating and ran into a problem anyone know what im doing wrong?
Anyone know how to get netflix? i tried searching and found nothing on it.
I had a problem rooting using bubbys 1 click not sure what the problem is, anyone know what i need to do?
clearly they are all still questions and they are in general subforum, instead of Q&A. Others of the same nature were moved to Q&A

Most of the threads that were still active were moved. As time goes anything that is a question of any sort should be post in Q&A and will be moved there or closed. Moving the hundreds of threads is a large task and takes alot of time so please bear with us as this is put into effect.
snappy response thx

Not a Prob, Question answered thread closed

Where is your thread?

Sorry guys,
But the first task that the modertaor committee asked me to do was to clear up the development section of each of my moderated device.
So incase you havent found your Question/App/request/ or something to that effect anymore in the developement section where you originally posted, its because I have moved to the right section.
I know it may come off as an inconvenience to some, but in the long run, I am sure it will benefit all
Cheers!

[Q] I'm new... How do I?

What's the difference between regular forums and "developer" forums?
I did a google search to find out how to edit an APK name and it sent me to XDA. WOW, there's a lot of good stuff on here... but when I went to ask a question on the forum it said I didn't have enough experience and needed a minimum of 10 posts. (I'm assuming this counts as one?)
