Bengalih, felt he was being treated unfairly, and decided to leave XDA, taking his Guides with him.
If anyone would like to create their own guides, they are more than welcome to.

Even though you claim yourself as a n00b, please feel free to post the guide. Once you do create a post saying such and asking for others to help you answer questions and keep up the thread.
I am quite sure others would appreciate the post.

post in developer forum

Can someone tell me the reason why i need 10 posts to post in developer forum?
Greets
Probably because they don't want people creating accounts and spamming those forums right off the bat. Keeping the dev forums more focused on getting things working than general chat and I need help etc. Just my view on it.
I thought it's stupid too, but after I realised how stupid people can be, I think it's a good idea. Just answer for a few questions here and you will have the 10 really soon.
thanks for posting this question so I can add another post to sum up to 10 or more posts to finally be able to participate where I would like to Rhobuntu on HTC TP2.
So silly - now they move from Ubuntu to Debian squeeze which is what I have running on my computer and next week I should have an HTC TP2 available for development only. Just - I cannot post !
Oh and I forgot the 5 minutes rule...
Too bad there is no icon for i$$ed

Don't tell me that!!
I've been posting around Q&A to reach those 10 posts because I want to ask and help on dev forums... :-(
Well, almost there, let me see what topic I can participate and then, if I keep being "blocked" off-of the dev forums...
There are very good reasons why the 10 post rule has been set up, a couple of which have been said above.
Why do you need to post in the dev section anyway? Are you a developer? If you arent and you create a new thread (question) it will probably get moved here.
If you are asking a question, the Q&A is the place
#justsayin
is right to by like this
I meant NOT right
I have 10 posts, why I still cannot post in the dev forum? need to aks about my issue

Because your ten posts were not helpful, they were spammy. And if you have a question, ask it in Q&A NOT Development. How hard is that to understand?
well, the question concerns a curtain app, so I would like to ask in the dev forum , where this ALREADY HAVE BEEN discussed in a special thread.
You might find that some of us here are quite knowledgable and therefore your answer could be easily obtained here without the need to post in the dev forums
Why dont you give it a go and ask here ?
Also, if your question has already been asked, there is in all probability an answer there; so eed to re-post the same question?
I can understand the rule but not your argument. What if he has been using an app that has its own topic in the dev forum and he wants to post a bug report or ask a question that hasn't been asked before. If it's about that specific thing it should go in that specific thread.

yes, you have a valid point. However i was trying to put forward the notion that far too many people post in the dev sections without properly researching first, hence the requirement for the 10 post rule.
Of course the OP may have a very genuine bug to report, if this is the case then can the OP let me know if he still cant postin dev and ill look into it.

not 100% true. I mean, when you use a ROM sometimes you want to exchange ideas with other users, make questions and even report bugs / make suggestions. you may not be a developer but in some way, everyone can be a beta tester! it doesn't make sense to star opening Q&A for CyanogenMod7 if you have a proper place in Developers Forum... And that's why I had to answer 10 things around (useful answers!) to use that section of the forums...
by the way, i don't know if the posts have to be useful, but i had access immediately to the dev forums...
hi, i'm a new user from spain, i need 10 posts to write on developers forums, where is in that forum the noobs place! thanks
I think it's a good idea. Learn your way around before posting/rambling on a devs forum. Think before you Speak.
well guess the builder of this forum tried to keep people stay here longer...or what else?

Question about Forum rules

So I went to post in the development area and have been on the forums for a long time.. Just never posted.. And I am told I need to post 10 messages before I can answer a question someone asked in Development.. That makes no sense to me.. I have to post in a section that I have 0 interest in to be able to post in one that I do..
Could someone explain that to me?

It's to prevent from newcommers to post in Dev and cluter it.
Yea but I feel that should be based on time on account and not ammount of posts.. /shrug.. Guess I have to find random things to say.. YEA! to in general to make my quota so I can be helpful..
Yeah pretty much just have to jabber on till you hit 10. ***** about SamsungJohn, talk about tacos, etc.
@fluffster
Which rom are you on?
How long have you had your captivate?
Just 6 more post and you are on your way to helping others in the development threads.
Post your situation in the mod request thread in the forums root general. You have been here long before the noob rule, should have been grandfathered in. daveshaw or svetius or pulser_g2 will help. Zelendel would also be able to get you in touch with them. Send any of them a pm.

10 posts or less

Ridiculous rule. I mainly use other forums. When I do use XDA I can never reply because I have less than 10 posts. BUT because I can't post I get pissed and leave. Thanks to MDW, DF, and all the others for not having a stupid rule.

Yeh I am finding this issue too. Very annoying!
Sent from my HTC Desire S using XDA App
Yeah, so just dump 10 posts in this thread and be done with it. I understand why the rule is in place, but yeah, annoying

10 spam posts will be removed by the mods and your post counter reset.
Do something usefull with your posts.
How hard is it to answer some questions or chime in on a discussion? Visit your device's Q&A and General subforums and help some people out. If you can't do that, then you don't deserve to post in the other forums.
The rule is there for a reason. If you just want to say thanks or ask a question about a thread in Development, send the member a pm until you get your post count up. Or post your question in Q&A... after searching first.

You shouldnt say thanks in a post, thats what the THANKS button is for. To reduce spam of that kind.
Posting your Question in a device specific or general Q&A thread is generally the best idea.
Some devs don't like it if they get PMs with question "how do i", "why does not", "how come"...
But beforehand you should have worked the search button so hard, your girlfriend got jealous....

can someone link me to all the ics roms for this device?

i would appreciate it,
Wiki at my signature and next time dont use devs section remember theres an Q/A section
