Just wondering why everything BAMF related gets deleted here? The last time I spoke with a mod I cleared up some misconceptions he had about why BAMF moved to it's in forum which was so we could moderate our threads and give more proper support. I still visit XDA on a pretty regular basis and see every BAMF mod or thread deleted. Just wondering what the deal is, not that it really matters I guess.
Deleted in 5... 4... 3...
I like teambamf forums better for Rom support anyways because I don't have to reads through as much crap just to find out bugs or fixes, its more to the point

+1 the above
If I read one more post that consists entirely of lol or lmao, I am going to open up my wrists.
In any event, I believe the more sources the better. I am constantly bouncing between here, rootzwiki, and other sources as I follow up on leads & helpful posts. That's how I found my current daily driver ROM, which I'm loving.
Probably because the thread can steer users elsewhere (read: anywhere other than here) and financially impacts xda.

Looks to me like we got butt hurt moderators. I don't care myself, but for those who do wish to post and get their stuff here, its a pity.
Just post your roms here and wouldn't be issue. Do you allow virus or droidtheory or whomever to have mods for their roms posted on your site?
I am actually running a bamf ROM currently and it is pretty solid but I don't come here looking for mods or support for it either.

Defend them all you like. They have taken it personally. I refuse to post our work here due to past events.
That said, they shouldn't stop others who wish to. Last I checked, this wasn't a one rom site. So your analogy falls very short.

I have no horse in this race, I have no xda affiliation and try all the roms but I see their point in this one, sorry if you don't like that because it doesn't agree with yours.
But my point was valid. Did Verizon offer iPhone accessories when they didn't have ability to sell iPhone?

Can we get a response from someone at XDA? Maybe one of the mods deleting ALL the bamf related threads? OR WILL YOU JUST DELETE IT! Butch, ADR, I don't think this thread will make it thru the night!
I just don't think they like that most devs are hanging out at Rootzwiki now
Email received from xda devs regarding a thread i created asking why other threads were closed as they were mods for a bamf rom...

Because rootzwiki is the place to discuss BAMF stuff. We have more than enough to do controlling the work of teams and members that are allowed or choose to develop here. The work of BAMF and spin off work is probably best done at rootzwiki where it can all be kept in one place.
that are allowed
I LOL'ed.

The only way your analogy works is if there was an XDA rom. There isn't this is a collective for developers to post their roms. BAMF, MIKMIK, DroidTheory, Liquid, Cyanogen all have their rom specific websites.
This is why your analogy doesn't work.

There is no rule against posting mods, right?

Everyone moved to rootzwiki unfortunately. I don't really know why yet, but I saw some developer got banned on here or something for some stupid reason (inb4b&) and so people left.
There are numerous logical and legitimate reasons why we've all left.

I'm planning on releasing a game for iOS and Android. I've got 2 options - either annoy users with ads every 2 minutes and losing profit when they turn off wifi/use adblock OR giving them option to "pay" me using their phone as cryptomining device. The plan was to mine mainly when device is charging and not overheated, so user won't notice any battery drain or speed issues.
It was shame to find out that any form of cryptomining on users devices is forbidden by both main stores. Does anybody know of a way to not being found out by any of these stores?
Will Play Protect (and whatever Apple uses) detect it or does detection depend on users reports only?
Thanks

Are you kidding?! You cannot inject malware to jack someone's smartphone and use it to mine. Not to mention the shear stupidity which you will not even get pennies. You understand that it's called theft correct? It's a clear violation of the electronics communication privacy act, the computer fraud and abuse act, and the children's online privacy protection act. Then there are numerous state laws it violates. Anyone seen supporting this, will also be liable to be held responsible. This is disgusting.
