ok so this is to help keep the peace i am posting this on top of the forum rules they may overlap or intersect. My goal here is to help keep down on the issues of repeat threads, wrong sections, trolling, and any other hijinx that comes here.
1. SEARCH
yes sometimes its hard especially on your phone with taptalk because we all know how that works. Solution: Try using google search using keywords such as xda, skyrocket, and whatever your issues is this always works for me.
If your on a computer use xda's built in search tool or google as i stated above.
I personally promise 90% of all issues can be found on the web with answers if you just take a few minutes to search
2. IF ITS A QUESTION IT BELONGS IN Q&A
It does not matter what the question pertains to it is a question and belongs in Q&A i have reported tons of these here recently having them moved. i know you think that its a general question but no it belongs in Q&A ok.
3. READ
This one is kinda broad for a reason here we go
If you ask a question within a thread at least have the decency to read the last few pages to see if anything comes up that may answer your question im not talking the whole thread but maybe 3 or so pages. The reason for this is that i have seen alot of threads where people have a question answered then not 2 or 3 posts later the same question comes up. This leads to cluttering of the thread making it much harder for others to find information.
This also goes along with wanting to make a thread look at like 3 pages of threads to make sure you dont have a reapeat post this thing happens alot again it comes from lack of attention.
4. TROLLING/FLAMING
This ones a big one and im a massive perp for this and will be the first to admit it.
We need to stop the trolling its just getting worse and not fixing anything yes its hard to ignore especially for us old timers but we need to set the standard now this forum is too big for us to be going on like we have been.
Solution: squash the issues by reporting if you wanna report multiple times fine get your buddies to report fine but lets stop the hate i personally am working on this as well.
i know you guys are gonna ignore this and whatever but my hope is the message gets across to you guys and makes this section a more peaceful place for all
wanted to thank you for posting this even though most of it should be common sense but i only got 8 thanks per day

You might mention in the OP that the best way to Google search the forums in to prefix the search with:
site:forum.xda-developers.com
So to search for 'skyrocket ics update' within the xda forums only would be:
site:forum.xda-developers.com skyrocket ics update
Also you could add links to the existing threads stickied in Dev. We all know their stickied for a reason, but many people overlook them and head straight for the new thread button
If you are going to help somebody, have the courtesy to check back on the thread so you know they are in the right direction.

You can't really blame them as they've put up with people who thought they were too good for the rules for so damn long. We'll ignore the fact that when you first show up in the Infuse forums, there's a forum labeled Q&A. Common sense would dictate that maybe questions should go there.
So you already showed a lack of common sense by skipping over a forum plainly labeled Q&A for all the world to see. After running blindly past that forum you ended up here in the development section. I mean yeah you really shouldn't be tossing random questions here but I could see how it could confuse you, here you see TWO CM7 threads, wow you hit the jackpot!
But once again instead of taking a minute to check those posts out, instead of using the handy dandy search tool up there ^ and instead of at least posting in one of the other CM7 related threads, you decided to say **** IT to common sense and created a brand new thread for your question.
You aren't special, the question has been asked and answered elsewhere, go forth and find the answer you seek.

I would have hoped that after 46 posts you would have some idea of where to post things, but I guess not. Ya, it was a sarcastic (yet funny) reply, brush it off and move on.
i mean cmon dude. its a question. if you connect the dots, it can easliy lead you to the Q&A... i do not see one bit of android development here... development of flaming is freaking blossoming though.
Oh but he's too good for the Q&A section... He needs a thread in the busy development section all for himself and his most important question!

our devs who left left for a better phone with better software support that isn't held back by that carrier since it can have software ported from the international version but they each may build one last rom when att drops gb, mikey is still answering in his thread and he and gtg both indicated that they may give it one last shot when the official gb drops. also entropy is still here, though he also got a gs2.

dude it's the internet, dont be so sensitive. oh and ask a mod to move this to Q&A never mind just ask it to be closed. when you get to Q&A you will se that there is a cm7 Q&A thread already there, plus closing this will stop the flaming.
what was that question again? it got lost in the flaming and belligerent defense of ignorance. a lot of us when we are newbs do something against the rules and get our peepee spanked for it. you are not unique. defending yourself sounds a bit like "hey i dont know the rules even though they are stickied in multiple forums in bold letters, why should i have to follow rules i dont know?" sorry to be a **** but this is the internet and that's how it is.
Slow down guys--if you think the thread doesn't belong in a certain area, simply report it.
Anyhow, moved to the appropriate section.

You say these things when you yourself feel above the rules you have been called out before xda is a community and when you do what is expected you can gain a ton of knowledge but being lazy is not an excuse diggit you posted the same question twice so my guess is nobody messes with Bluetooth alot otherwise you would have gotten an answer but since there are no custom kernels for ics features are limited that's not an excuse for you to be silly and act like we are in the wrong all you new guys need to just chill and soak up what you can but use common sense too if we don't answer its for a reason 1 its been posted 2 we don't know

You should have been banned from xda along time ago for being a prick. People don't need to frequent the [email protected] part of xda ..90%of what's SAID on here is useless, besides people needing files or zips or anything of that nature . Xda does no good for the average person who's expecting a fair reply. People like you who frequent the site just to jabber off at the mouth fail to realize that.Browsing for soulutions can be done without commenting.
I certainly don't need anyones help especially yours , you fail to realize ive probably had more android devices than you ever thought of owning and guarantee I know more about this game than you ever knew.
So before you remark with your pouting ass comments think real hard if it really matters to me!

Second time I've had to interfere with this thread. Consider this a warning. If I have to interfere again I will lock and start handing out infractions. Remember it is your job (as someone that wants/needs something to search using Google or XDA search. Search isn't perfect but from endless amount of post/threads it seriously lowers the amount of pages you need to read. THAT leads me to the second point not only do you NEED to search you HAVE read. As a community it is ALL our responsibility to help out when ever we can. That goes from answering questions or pointing to the right direction or as simply as hitting the report button.

Do you ever do anything besides troll these threads to hunt for people posting in the wrong category? Seriously, I've never seen any comment you've made on XDA that adds value or benefit to any discussion. He should post in a CM thread with 1,000 replies so his question can get buried under half a dozen ongoing discussions in the thread? OP had a legitimate question so he posted in Q&A. Get a life bro.

This was asked on my thread and the best answer is: it's up to you. If it's important to you, see if you can hack it out. Or try to get someone to work on it for you. And I used to give **** to illnevertell, who coincidentally is someone I'd call a friend now. Does he troll? yeah. Could it be called annoying to some? Sure, but he has a point and his hearts in the right place. As I've mentioned before, its like being a government employee; when you deal with assholes and morons all day long, you begin to think that everybody is one. Question after question that could be handled without wasting anyone's time gets annoying as well. I actually saw a thread begun a while back for a douche mad at XDA and everyone in it because the idiot asked a dumb question in a dumber way and got his panties all bunched up at some ribbing about it. I believe it was something to the effect of "I am going to tell everyone I know on the net to stay away from XDA". Seriously? This is supposed to be a learning and sharing forum, not ****ing tech support for morons who want a flashy phone without doing anything to earn it. Go on ****ing Craigslist and find one of those assholes who sell ROM flashing, ok?
**This was not meant for the OP, just got off on a little rant of my own. Illnevertell can be harsh, but that doesn't make him wrong.
I just popped in the cm10 dev thread for the Verizon nexus and it is question city in there.
How do I do this? Why is this happening? Does my **** stink?
For as much crap as we give posters on this device we actually run a pretty tight ship here.

I hope that more users will notice how we act here from other device subforums.
It drives me crazy when I try to read through the dev forum for sgh-i717 or most other devices, and it's almost impossible to figure out what the developers are doing, what issues are current, who is doing what... I mean if the idea is to be a development community and you can't track the development or have the ability to contribute because you know what is going on... So many users asking questions about the rom or kernel when there is a Q&A thread for that specific purpose. It really works against the community, and you see the high output developers leave because no one contributes to their projects and their threads are thrashed. It's stressful to be the only dev on a project, I have some experience there.
Thank goodness for contributors and other devs for jumping in on some of the projects I started or we started together or the projects we have now wouldn't exist. Not to mention the other devs that kanged that work to make something even better. I don't look down on that, because it keeps the flashaholics happy, and we all get to learn about their skill sets.
I think our community gets that. And the trolls just sorta get squeezed out by reporting their posts and keeping threads on topic.

Anyways...
Troll on, friends.

I hope that more users will notice how we act here from other device subforums.
It drives me crazy when I try to read through the dev forum for sgh-i717 or most other devices, and it's almost impossible to figure out what the developers are doing, what issues are current, who is doing what So many users asking questions about the rom or kernel when there is a Q&A thread for that specific purpose.

I agree with you its frustrating to have ten million questions that have been answered or are self explanatory.
However if you goto the device the op is talking about they have multiple versions of the same phone all lumped into a category. Each one had a development section but there is only ONE q&a section. And with the amount of development on that device the q&a section moves extremely fast. That doesnt mean its ok to post questions in the dev thread AT ALL! It does mean the devs should be linking q&a threads in the first post so people arent hunting through 20 pages of current thread just to find it.

If something can be answered, the do it and be helpful in 1 or 2 posts. If things get out of hand, then use that button. That is why it is there.

This is a under used suggestion. Even if in the wrong place answer the question move on. Report posts of people telling people to use search and not actually helping keep the thread clean. Think about it. How many times have you seen somebody post hey man use search and then multiple other people will do the same thing? I think I have been guilty but I try to avoid doing that anymore. If I cant offer a answer I dont post. It keeps the noise down and people from misunderstanding me.
