Dear Moderator
You have deleted two posts i posted today, why ??????????????
one related to root donation, which i might understand if that was against forum policy
The second one which i really dont understand was relating to the Alpha Rev team that made the achievement of unlocking the desire S via a software they released
Cool story bro (do a search and you will see you made two duplicate threads)

Dear moderator, please delete this thread
Dear moderator,
Please delete this thread too and give noob users a temp ban. Chit chat definitly don't should be posted in the development section. RADLOUNI, read the rules and PM the moderator, do not open a fu*king thread in dev section.
Cheers.
it's not up to xda members to tell mods what to do!

It's not hard at all. Questions belong in the general section, development belongs in the dev section. Before making a new thread, spend a few minutes researching the question you have. If you can't find an answer AFTER searching, then make a new thread, in the CORRECT section.
99 out of 100 times I can find the answer to any question via Google. Hell, I even learned how the birds and the bees work thanks to Google. Jk.
WorldWide 60's answer was helpful and respectful but smx11's was a complete fail. What a poor sense of community this person has!

Radlouni I can understand frustration when you do not understand why you are being treated a certain way. Your last post of personal attacks is just uncalled for as was the post you were responding to. In the future I suggest that you PM the Mod that you have an issue with. This thread is not productive and not in the spirit of what XDA is all about which is advancing in mobile technology. I am closing this thread if you or anyone else has an issue with this please PM me directly.

Like everyone else says. Your threads where deleted because
A-Bounties are not allowed, I have already stated this multiple times and posted that any new threads about such things would be deleted.
and
B-Again, there was already a thread posted about the Desire S being unlocked so yours was redundant.
Please read the stickies and use the search function.
Would there be any way to have a special membership level in the forum privileges that allows posting in the dev forums, this would force people I.E. general users with questions to read and discover the Q&A forums. To get said privileges someone should simply have to request and agree not to break those rules. Good idea?

No. Bad idea.
The Dev forums should be locked to anyone who doesn't have special status on XDA (e.g. Devs, RCs, RTs etc). For a 'normal' user to be able to post in the Dev forum they should have to be invited and approved by the Devs - and that right could be rescinded at any time.
That would have the secondary benefit of stopping the people who continually post useless cr4p just to get their post count up to 10

I agree... To a point, the problem is to get RD ir RC you have to post guides or dev work... Which normally should go in the development section.
It really is a hard one and nothing will ever please all

I'm not so sure that an invite system would be neccesary... just have a simple I agree site that gives access to the dev forums and the halfwits who go through that just to post where they shouldn't could then be banned and do everyone in these forums a favor!

Umm, if you would propose that everyone who doesnt post in the correct section should be banned, then OP, you are kinda
stepping on your own feet...
As this thread belongs in About XDA...
As stated before, there doesn't seem to be a "one rule pleases all" compromise...

Well, for RC, you don't *necessarily* need to create threads, and that too, in the dev section...
Afaik, guides belong to the general section, but there are also accepted in the dev section if it is directly related to development, or is there to prevent non-dev posts in dev area...

Yeah I can appreciate your sentiment but it's not a workable solution. Honestly I don't even think there's a problem, the mods are on their game and the 10 post rule helped weed out some people.

Actually, there must be something to keep them out of OT too, as n00bs come there frequently to increase their post count. I told two of them off today and I got ripped off for being a "party pooper". Sometimes, I wonder why I even bother.

I just think if its important enough to keep the dev posts clean that they will lock them and then we get all the posts *****ing about misposts (worse then the mispost itself) then why not try something a little more locked down... why would a user like myself need access to post in a dev forum for?

If you had frequent SODs you could up a logcat, it's very basic stuff and could potentially help the dev out.
Good ideas are always good, and i frequent the HD2 and Galaxy Nexus forums quite a bit, 2 of the busier dev forums, and don't really see problems with this.

As new member to XDA I can't post in the developers thread unless I've posted 10 times here or elsewhere. So I'm basically prevented from informing app's developer of a bug encountered, etcetera. Must make senseless posts before I can talk to developper. Why this hurdle? XDA forces me to spam the forums.
Had you followed the rules and searched before opening this thread you would know why you have to make 10 posts first. No need to spam. Read and help out and you will get your needed posts fast enough.

Just curious as to how long account restrictions are in place here at XDA? I've been a member of many forums over the years (retired moderator at Overclock.net) and frankly puzzled as I have never seen these kind of restrictions on another site.
Not allowed to post external links (so no photobucket, no links to accessories).
Can only post every 5 minutes? Again a real head scratcher.
Have to type in an authentication code every time I post?
Just wondering if XDA is actively discouraging new members from joining.
I have to say great content on the site but very frustrating to try and participate.
Just something to prevent people joining solely to spam. Goes away after a few dozen posts.

Forum Rules
Restrictions are in place to give people an opportunity to read, search, and learn to navigate their way around the site, as well as to help curb all of the spam that is constantly trying to force it's way in.
Also, I moved your thread to the Q&A section...
And closed...

Hi. I'm looking for hacks or bots or hacked APKs
Mod edit: *snip*
I hope I'm not breaking any forum rules by asking for something like that.
What you're describing there is warez. We don't deal with that on XDA. If you'd taken a moment to read the forum rules before posting you would have seen that...
