The Chive app, gift from god? - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III

Raise your hand if you think an angel created the Chive app for mankind to enjoy!
What other explanation is there?!
Or, raise a thumb if you at least believe that it's an ancient Samurai secret.

Keeping my hand way down low... the app is crap compared to the normal site. (not the mobile version) Did they remove ads or something else recently?

Nah, but I would gladly pay for a version that didn't have them. I still enjoy the app, but I agree that the full site is better.

Never heard of the chive before but after checking the site out I'll download the app

I'm actually named after St.Michael, the angel who lead the war. Please no religious debates, as I am not trying to start one.
Just stating who I'm named after.
Thanks for your compliment, remember to report or pm me directly when you see problems arising. That's for everyone.

emmmmm i made a completely transparent clock like a month ago for my rom THE BEAST in the mytouch forums,
First off the one you had on your rom the beast was my idea. You forgot I PM'd you and suggested that you create a transparent android clock?
Secondly the one you created does not look anything like the clock I have above. My clock is completely stock. Only thing modified is the transparency.

Honestly I am real confused right now. I don't see how I'm being a "****" when I said anyone could of easily did what I did to the clock and its a simple looking clock? I'm done with this conversation cause now I'm really getting mad. This makes no sense to argue about the clock being simple and plain when I clearly agreed with you. Please lets just get back on topic and end this argument. I'm glad that you voiced your opinion on the clock being plain, but me being a "****" is uncalled for especially since I said nothing wrong.

The infuse is falling apart, our development is ruined. We do have a few great devs, but not enough that can truly make this a good phone. New ports are coming everyday, but seems like people running the aosp roms (not me lol) seem to just want updates and updates only. Not to go hating on people, but please, please be nice and lets make this change!
It would be nice but I don't really see anything changing, too many new and better phones, it just seems the devs get bored quick and jump to the next best thing. Can't really blame them but it would be nice if the infuse could spake some more interest.

Dude you should do it. Maybe you could just release it every 2 weeks or so and then if anyone gives you any bull or something then just ignore them. I Understand how jordan got mad and there were people giving him crap, but shutting it down is like killing off a lot of people who loved it lol (I never tried it). I think there should be a main post stickied saying read this, and saying how if there is any bull, it will not be tolerated and you will be ignored. Someone should seriously do that haha!
There needs to be a weekly or even monthly port and no comments. If you have questions GO TO THE Q AND A SECTION! That way we can still get our sweet sweet rom and the douche bags can go flame else where.

I think more of us would step in to help after seeing what happened last time. That being said, the age for getting smartphones is getting lower and lower. There are a lot of little ****s on xda now, so the devs have to have a bit thicker skin IMO.

[req-app] Best multi-downloading Mp3 [music] downloader

not sure if the applications are legal or if this actually piracy, if it is then close the thread if it isn't feel free to help me with this
So everybody knows that there are many mp3 downloading apps in the market but I am looking for the best one.
one that has fast multi-downloading.
good and human-friendly interface.
hopefully free? if there is a paid app ill look into it, maybe if I am satisfied with the results ill buy it.
Again, excuse me if this is warez... its just bit different than cracking a paid app..

Facebook native for andriod

Perhaps most of you know this all ready. And honestly with Facebook you are the product cause your not a customer. However because I along with others have family on Facebook we are in a bind. Well Facebook went native and it finally works well with android. So for the others that have resisted being a user. Maybe its time to give them one more shot?

Yup, much better.
Also, the argument that if you're not paying something "you're the product" is.... well I'll just say "dramatic." Yes you're being advertised to, and maybe your information is being used for advertising purposes, but.... most normal people don't give a crap, and it certainly doesn't hurt you.

I couldn't agree with you more about it hurting anyone.
Its not dramatics' its a simple fact. And that's OK that they sell my info to make money so I can have a free social media outlet.
I Apologize if this thread seems derogatory to Facebook. They seem to had missed the mark with not taking care of its "product". A vast amount of android users became disheartened of the HTML code. I wrote emails to fb explained how it seemed they were ignoring the android user.
I digress... the point of this thread was to welcome back and perhaps persuade old users to "give them one more shot" I would have never thought I'd give fb 5stars for the app! all my cool friends are on Google + and my sheep ios family are on fb.

not at all friend, but dont think for a second a majority of the people who read your post will just assume you meant "weird" or "strange". face it, most will ASSume you meant in regards to being homosexual. even if its not what you meant, it could still be offensive, and you should think about what you say and how others may perceive it before you post that on the interwebz.
also, playing off your logic here, who are you to say a man listening to one direction is queer? i think you NOT listening is rather gay.
and by gay i meant happy. did you assume that?

not at all friend, but dont think for a second a majority of the people who read your post will just assume you meant "weird" or "strange". face it, most will ASSume you meant in regards to being homosexual. even if its not what you meant, it could still be offensive, and you should think about what you say and how others may perceive it before you post that on the interwebz.
also, playing off your logic here, who are you to say a man listening to one direction is queer? i think you NOT listening is rather gay.

I am more than happy to explain my use of the word when people misunderstand it and quite honestly the word stupid is offensive, but we still use it along with many other negative terms. Lastly I don't see how, "I think you not listening is rather happy" makes sense grammatically so yes I would assume you were using the homosexual meaning.

given the general societal stigma involved with men listening to whats considered to be "girl music" using the word queer with no clear or definitive meaning, and only the stigma i mentioned earlier for context, it can only lead the observer to assume you meant the opposite. dont attempt to justify your misuse of words with an analogy worth about as much as your idea its still OK to use the word "queer" when referring to a "strange" behavior. who are you to decide its queer a man listens to 1d? ok, so you personally think its queer, kewl bro. dont express that with no intentions other than to express it, bc than really your only intent was conflict, right?

Again I don't care about the general social stigma and no I didn't mean to start a conflict. I actually just really like the original meaning of queer and the way the word even sounds like its definition. Furthermore I think this conversation has gone on long enough and we should clutter this thread up anymore.
