Yeah it's great news! Hopefully that means we're only a couple weeks from a nightly release.
Not to sound like a **** or anything but we already have 2 threads about this elsewhere. Now I understand this is exciting and all but please.

agreed... have some common sense! if the tweets were made last evening at around 11EST then there are obviously already forum posts (it is regarding CM for God's sake).
Search and post in relevant threads. This thread should be closed, as it is pointless. No need to riddle the forums with duplicate posts just because you (and everyone else) were excited and did not post in the correct thread.

FORUM RULES
2.1 Language: XDA is a worldwide community. As a result what is ‘ok’ to say in your part of the world may not be ok in someone else’s part of the world. Please think about who is reading what you write. Keep in mind that what you think of as acceptable use of language may not be acceptable to others.

I personally view this post as a Flaming (2.3), Personal Attack(2.4) with questionable language(2.1) that doesn't show any courtesy(2.5) to other members and shows that you obviously haven't read and aren't capable of following the rules of the forum (2.6). That's all the rules regarding conduct except nudity, who would you infract? If you have a problem with a post/thread report it rather than getting yourself into trouble. Consider this a friendly warning since the OP decided not to report your post.

Umm, I was talking about the app he is spamming about. He has another post in the general forum about it. CairoMarketplace is an applanet style app that offers paid apps for free. Is that not piracy?
And I have reported both of his posts and yet they still sit on our general forum.

Exactly, you reported another thread and came over here to start a flame war in this one too? Guy posted an avatar for people, how is that warez or advertising, it says XDA on it not Cairo anything. Yes, I agree that CairoMarket is warez and it's been being discussed but that doesn't mean you should search the users name, post a snide response in every thread he ever created and report every thread he ever created regardless if it doesn't even violate the rules here on xda. Again, stalking users, creating drama, flame wars etc = no no. You reported it, report received, let the mods take care of it because all this childish behaviour will do is get you in trouble too. Please keep this in mind.

Tyvm for your cooperation in this matter, again mods are and will be looking at this market place app as I totally agree it is warez. Just saying the proper channels are there for a reason.
it seems people here have forgotten what this term means..
i posted a ROM on XDA that i found from a different site. credit was given to the rightful development team. all i did was spread the word and share..
this is the entire basis of the linux community.
a lot of people here complain about users being too needy, but honestly a lot of the "devs" are too greedy and full of themselves.. team inferno, for example, who has SOME members that act as if they developed and invented android themselves... when all they really do is a few graphic/theme enhancements.
there is absolutely nothing wrong with posting and sharing open-source work even if its not your own contribution, as long as the right credit is given. read the terms and conditions you more than likely blindly accepted when first using android or installing the SDK..
to the mod that closed my thread: thanks for aiding in the destruction of the community. i didnt think letting XDA know about what else is out there was such a crime. wait, what you guys are doing is more of a crime, which has potential of shutting down the entire virtuous team. but i love their work and im not an asshole so ill let it be
cool story bro
Another useless thread that will be locked. The reason why again, since you can't grasp the concept. YOU did NOT have the permission to post their work. Open source or not. Doesn't flipping matter. If you look at every single thread someone says with permission by blah, blah, blah. Don't get butt hurt that your little thread that you copied and pasted in the dev section got closed. It happens when you don't read the rules.

i couldnt care less for the thread, whether i post it or someone else..
the point is the entire concept of "community" build around linux is useless when people cannot spread the message of different ROMs or distros or whatever it is. you want more users and testers, not restrictions..
what i did was only against your own made up rules. if you wanted to move the info to the general sub-forum, fine.. but to act as if IM in the wrong for spreading the word on a free and open-source product?..
take your credit for your work, but dont be selfish and hold it all to yourself or restrict it from certain groups. whats the reason for not allowing it on XDA? IT DOESNT MATTER, its most likely some dumb **** anyway..

You got your thread locked and a moderator erased your o.p and put in capital letters. Do not post others peoples work without permission. That's my made up rule? Hmmm? Reporting this thread as we speak.

good for you, you must feel really good about yourself
BTW, whether its a rule on XDA or not is not a concern. when youre dealing with FOSS or FLOSS, the federations rules trump any rule that you or a mod or a forum creates..
what if the ICS camera fix was found on another forum, but those members wouldnt let anyone else use it? do you know how much of a negative affect that has on the community? this is against everything linux stands for..
but thanks for being a jerk
.....guys seriously...just shut up. If you have nothing nice to say, don't say it! This forum is falling apart. Just post what ROMs you want WITH PERMISSION, then just ignore the trolls. I could care less about that thread. Just my 2 cents..I'm prepared to be flamed anytime for this post.

Depends on what you are looking for. The appeal of our site is the fact that it holds a VAST amount of information generated for almost 10 years since the early days of PocketPC2000. You don't need to post or even be part of any community in particular to rip the full benefits that the site has to offer. I see that you have been a member for a very long time and I can somewhat understand where your post is going (the implied message). The commercial aspect of the site revolves around the banners which we try to keep to a minimum but to have enough to pay for our costs, which are rather high.
The sites suggested by other people in this thread are indeed good, but again, each site appeals to a specific audience. XDA presents a wider scope than most sites out there.
I hope this helps.
Uhmm...now that i think about, there is this site that should be handy

lol, did crack me up..
The ads are not what influenced my question i use an ad blocker on chrome and can honestly say ive not seen an add on xda thanks to that. What I meant was a forum not attached financially to a store/shop.
XDA is huge and ive been visiting this site for many a moon but I also want to explore other sites and see what else is around as well..
hidden gems and the likes.
.
Thread moved to Q&A due to it being a question. Would advise you to read forum rules and post in correct section.
Failure to comply with forum rules will result in an infraction and/or ban depending on severity of rule break.
sorry forgot XDA had turned a little unfriendly ill make sure i don't post again
it's kinda why i posted the in the general section as yes technically it was a question was also a general thing but once again the hand of pointless takes control. stick it!

Yes. Everything is an issue anymore. Can't even create a device forum easily anymore. It's gotta be "popular enough". Ugh. XDA developers stopped being a Dev site a while ago. It's why I don't Dev here anymore.

Edit: necro threads are no less real.
As some of you may or may not know Hechoen has received a ban from the forums. The ban is his first and is for ten days. The reason for the action was "Disrespectful attitude towards moderator." Some background follows. He was PM'd by a mod to remove his avatar within 48 hours. The mod seemed to think that it could be offensive to some members. His avatar has been around for a long time and was a cartoon of a guy giving the middle finger with the words "Censor this!". As we all know an avatar is an extension of your online personality. To get an idea of whether or not the community found it offensive he posted a question about it in the off-topic thread(that he created). He never named the mod or said anything "disrespectful" towards the mod. Within minutes the post was deleted and he was banned. So I ask any of you that think this action unfair to please respond here. Also feel free to PM a mod(or five) with a link to this thread. If others believe this to be unfair and we unite as a community maybe, just maybe, we'll make a difference.
Sincerely,
Beastmode
To any mods reading this, it would be nice to have a link to the avatar rules for the forums. Thanks.
He has been helping out here as
long as I have been around..always
seems to help where he can..sounds
like they used the avatar thing as an excuse...he has had that avatar as long as I remember... Mods cut him some slack...give him a warning and let it go....

Don't worry, the mods have heard our petition and hechoen will be unbanned in approximately 9 more days It's a problem with the forum software, we just can't make it unblock anyone faster than that.

Not that I agree with the ban, but, wasn't he asking to be censored?
I don't know the guy personally but this isn't the first time a mod has abused their powers. Most don't, but then again what can you really do? Hope he's unbanned shortly. And to all the mods not on a power trip, please keep up the fine work we appreciate you.

Thread Cleaned
Well, guess what folks?
This thread itself has been reported, and thus cleaned and closed.
XDA is a development forum, off topic discussion is allowed to some extent to afford users to create relationships that strengthen bonds and friendships that will, hopefully, lead towards a stronger development community and thus, possibly better product for the masses.
BUT you need to also understand the following post - some may have read this before http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=16682226&postcount=2441
That being said - this website, and the threads within, are really for development and the developers. Moderators are merely here to make sure that the aforementioned development, along with the published rules, are being abided by.
Regardless of whether moderators do the popular thing or not, we do what we do with sincere interest for the community as a whole. Users who want to challenge the rules and/or criticize what moderators do and try to incite others in this plight are ones who bring little value to this community. Additionally, and you most should be aware, there are plenty of social media websites available to sign petitions and to express your feelings, XDA is not one of them.
And, to refer to the about linked post by zelendel, no one made you come here. You agreed to be respectful in your posts, to be critical of moderators, who are also members, is also not allowed.
For those of you in here who have posted, good to meet you. I expect you all will try to exercise respect, humanity and dignity from here on out - wherever and whenever you post.
Enjoy the rest of the weekend.
