Keep in mind that what you think of as acceptable use of language may not be acceptable to others. Conversely, while reading member posts, remember that word you find offensive may not be to the writer. Tolerance is a two way street.

Flaming: XDA was founded as a group of people sharing information about certain mobile phones. Sharing does not involve virtual yelling (flaming) it does involve working together to solve problems in an environment of mutual respect and understanding. Losing your temper and flaming another member, or group of members, is not acceptable behavior.
Personal attacks, racial, political and/or religious discussions: XDA is a discussion forum about certain mobile phones. Mobile phones are not racial, political, religious or personally offensive, therefore none of these types of discussions are permitted on XDA.

You have received an infraction at xda-developers.
Reason: Commercial Links in Signature/Profile/Post

Linking to sites with paid work is not allowed under XDA rules.

This infraction is worth 3 point(s) and may result in restricted access until it expires. Serious infractions will never expire.
All the best,

The mods removed my "make a request link" in my signature.. I guess I'm no longer allowed to do custom artwork for the community. First they tell me that I can't link to my paid themes, but they don't do anything to people linking to paid apps. Now I get an infraction for having a "donate" links in my signature but tons of others are allowed to do this.
Why are these moderators singling me out for punishment when I'm doing the same things others are doing? Is this how we want our xda community managed?
1st off. I will come right out and say it.
NO ONE, I mean no one from the Team Whiskey Development Team sent in a complaint. We all appreciate everything you do for our team, so why would we do that.
2nd, Someone who says they are from Team Whiskey, that isn't the following:
Sombionix, ViralBlack, myself (Krylon360), DesignGears, Morfic, ardchoille, and SkOrPn; are lying.
And as far as the infraction, you may as well give EVERYONE who has a link in their sig that has Pay For stuff on that site a infraction, starting with me. Why, because we have a Donator's section.
Enjoy.
Krylon360 off XDA.
If you really are the only one treated this way, looks more like personal vendetta instead of forum moderation.
They have done this to me also,which i think it really stupid,
all i did was provide invites to a certain site, not post the link of the site here,so they banned me for 7 days, maybe those ppl need a life
and also new mods are allowed to break the rules but if membes do they get a warning
Since the OP has been posting links to paid/commercial software it falls under rules 7, 8 and 11 of the Forum rules
So this infraction was giving in full compliance with the rules.
If there are (as implied) other users who link to software with the intent to sell, please report them so we can evaluate and take the necessary actions.
If you think you are treated unfairly, please contact one of the board Admins, present your case in a rational matter and they will look into it.
Opening a thread isn't a good way to handle it.
Regards,
EquinoXe
Ok, since you want to play like that, I am more than happy to explain my (and other mod's actions) in public.
You are selling themes as per your threads

If it isn't clear enough, you are clearly selling your work on XDA. Your signature was modified to remove the link to your website where you are selling the themes (in case you don't see any issue with that, this is known as advertising)
Just as my pm as well as pulser_g2's pm, we both quoted the rules that you are breaking by doing this. In case you missed them, here they are:
7. Do not spam.
If you wish to advertise a product, contact us we provide ads. But do not post it in the forums, it will be removed and you're likely to receive a ban.

11. Don’t post with the intent on selling something.
As an elaboration to rule number 7, don’t use XDA to advertise your product or service. If you are the proprietor of a for-pay product or service, you may use XDA to get feedback, provide beta access, or offer support on the product, but you may not make any posts with the primary intent of selling. This includes posting press releases, announcements, or links to downloads for trial software; the only exception to this is when you’re posting an exclusive release to XDA. Off-site downloads are permitted as long as the site does not require a fee or mandatory registration to access the content.

@Krylon,
Your work and Team Whiskey's is fully featured on XDA and free of charge to members. Donations are only prohibited when they are asked up front as per Rule #8
8. Donations.
We appreciate all donations to xda-developers.com, it keeps our forum online and well maintained. As a user you're allowed to ask for donations in your signature as a thank you for your hard work. However donations up front are not allowed, this forum is about sharing, not about getting paid to do something, that's what your job is for.

There is nothing wrong with having Donate links in your signatures. Asking for donations in lieu of a service, product, etc is no longer a donation as is called selling.
So, before you all jump in trying to defend him, make sure that you read the rules first. Plain and simple. I am not acting on a vendetta (hell, I don't even know him). He is selling his work on XDA and that is against the rules. No ifs, no buts.
If you are all so hellbent on not reading the rules, you have a moderator among your ranks. Ask him and he will tell you the same exact thing I just did.
Per forum rule 11:
11. Don’t post with the intent on selling something.
As an elaboration to rule number 7, don’t use XDA to advertise your product or service. If you are the proprietor of a for-pay product or service, you may use XDA to get feedback, provide beta access, or offer support on the product, but you may not make any posts with the primary intent of selling. This includes posting press releases, announcements, or links to downloads for trial software; the only exception to this is when you’re posting an exclusive release to XDA.

As such, having threads open for the sole purpose of showcasing a theme requiring payment (I call this selling, but this could also be classified as requiring a donation up-front) is not acceptable.
Likewise with linking to these threads off-site, as that is advertising of your paid product.
Users are free to have a donation link in their signature or (recently added) button above the user profile. You are not allowed to require donations for access to work (selling), or offer to do work in exchange for donations (see end of rule 8 regarding up-front donations).
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Finally, on an unrelated note, posting invitations or offer of invitations, to sites engaging in the distribution of warez is not permitted on XDA, and re-adding the offer to a signature isn't acceptable behaviour. Rules 6 and 9 cover this.

Jeez...
First of, you were giving invites to D*******d, which is a warez site (one of the largest torrent trackers on the web). So, right there you broke Rule 6
6. Do not post warez.
If a piece of software requires you to pay to use it, either pay or find your cracks and serials somewhere else. We do not accept warez nor do we permit any member to promote or describe ways in which Warez, cracks, serial codes or other means of avoiding payment, can be obtained.

You were told once to remove the links in your siggy and since you didn't comply, these were removed for you. A few days later, we found out that you had placed these links again, so you got banned for it.
The "mod" breaking the rules that you are describing here was reprimanded for it. In case you guys are wondering, this is for posting an eBay link in a MP thread, which is not allowed. The link was removed and a warning was issued to him.
Im on .9 after being rooted because no matter the kernal/rom combo, my GPS was hosed. Back to stock now and all is right again. Just wondering if there are any new stock ruu's past .9 out, or coming soon?
Thanks

Really? These are talking about stock ruu's and they are in this forum:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=903760
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=975888
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=995819
They are also threads in which the OP contains a RUU, not someone asking if a new one will be released. If you can't tell the difference then you should reread the forum rules.
I did,...have you?
If not, here they are, and no where can I find that in the Developers Forum must you provide actual RUU's, not just ask about them.

2.6 All members are expected to read and adhere to the XDA rules.
3. Post only using a clear subject and message.
You're most likely to receive a helpful answer to your question if you use a short subject title that describes your problem and a message that explains in detail what your problem is and what you've tried to solve it.
4. Use the English language.
We understand that with all the different nationalities not everyone speaks English well, but please try. If you're really unable to post in English use an online translator, You're free to include your original message in your own language below the English translation.
5. Post a message only once.
As a large forum we don't need unnecessary clutter, You're free to edit your message as you like, so if you do not receive an answer revisit your message and see if you can describe your problem better. Not everyone is online at the same time, it might take a while before you receive an answer.
6. Do not post warez.
If a piece of software requires you to pay to use it, either pay or find your cracks and serials somewhere else. We do not accept warez nor do we permit any member to promote or describe ways in which Warez, cracks, serial codes or other means of avoiding payment, can be obtained.

Please use common sense: respect the forum, its users, and those that write great code.
10. Help others if you can.
If you see posts from others where you can help out, please do. This place exists because people are helping each other, and even if you are relatively new to the matter, there's probably already quite a few people newer than you that would benefit from what you've learned. Don't be shy.

Don’t use XDA to advertise your product or service. Proprietors of for-pay products or services, may use XDA to get feedback, provide beta access, or a free version of their product for XDA users and offer support, but not to post with the intention of selling.

Do not post press releases, announcements, links to trial software, or commercial services. unless you’re posting an exclusive release for XDA-Developers.com.
Encouraging members to participate in forum activities on other phone related sites is prohibited.

Off-site downloads from sites requiring registration are NOT encouraged but may be permitted if the following conditions are met:
A) the site belongs to a member of XDA-Developers with at least 1500 posts and 2 years membership who actively maintains XDA-Developers' support thread(s) / posts, related to the download,
B) the site is a relatively small personal website without commercial advertising/links (i.e. not a competitor forum-based site with purposes and aims similar to those of XDA-Developers.com.)
12. Using the work of others.
If you are developing something that is based on the work of another Member, you MUST first seek their permission, and you must give credit to the member whose work you used. If a dispute occurs about who developed / created a piece of work, first try to settle the matter by private message and NOT in open forum. If this fails then you may contact a moderator with clear evidence that the work was created by you.
Convincing evidence will result in copied work being removed. If there is no clear evidence you created the work then in the spirit of sharing all work will remain posted on the forums.
These rules apply to all software posted on XDA unless that software comes with a license that waives these rules.
Marketplace RULES / DISCLAIMER
1
The XDA-Developers.com Market Place, hereafter MP, is provided free to members with at least 8 posts at XDA-Developers.com. XDA-Developers.com, its moderators, administrators, owners and legal advisors do not warrant, guarantee or endorse any item offered for sale or trade on this forum.

SIMPLE ENGLISH: No Business links allowed.
3
All transactions must take place in the public forum; use of the Private Message (PM) system to buy/sell/trade is against MP rules. Use of the PM system to convey private information, shipping address and payment details is acceptable.
SIMPLE ENGLISH: If you trade by PM how do you know the person you are buying from isn’t selling the same item to 10 people? Keep all deals in the open.
4
a. XDA-Developers allows the following items to be offered for Sale/Trade:
Mobile Phones including Tablet devices and directly related Accessories ONLY.
b. we do not allow items to be offered for Sale/Trade that are stolen, thought to be stolen, or of questionable history.
SIMPLE ENGLISH: Don't sell anything but phones / accessories and ensure they are not stolen.
5
Do not send money by any means that you cannot track or recover. Sending money via Western Union is a known scamming method and although it may be necessary due to country restrictions it is not recommended.

SIMPLE ENGLISH: Use PayPal® whenever possible. You are responsible for your own actions.
6
By posting on the MP you agree that you have read, understand and will abide by these rules.
This is not a q&a forum. Those RUU threads you speak of contained the RUU, not someone asking after them. If your not posting a ROM, Root method or MOD, then it doesn't belong in the development section. Put it in general...
Thread reported for closure.

Right, but Im not asking about which battery to use, or why does my TB take bad pics, its about RUU's, I mean close it, move it, whatever the mods want, but its a question I researched, found nothing on, its about RUU's, which are used to develop new ROMs off of...so I figured asking about a ROM, albeit a stock one, should be asked here. Not trying to be a hard ass.
And questions belong in the general forums, not the dev forums. It's a simple concept, these forums are for MODs, Kernels, ROMs, and the like.
I have not seen any new ones. The GPS works fine if you turn on WiFi even if you are not on or near WiFi. Try it and see if it works for you.

I think this thread has to do with dev. He asked about a new ruu that might fix his GPS issue. I also think its sad that all these replies are just flames and no help. To answer your question, I have not heard of any RUU. Have you tried the gps fix in these forums?
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA Premium App
Thank you,...yes, I have tried all the gps fixes, wifi on/off, it didnt seem to matter. Im cool with being stock, as my max stable OC was only 1.2ghz, so no big loss there,and now that Juice Defender (Beta) is playing nice with the TB, my battery life seemed to have improved to near UV performance. What Im looking for is hopefully a fix for the garbled sounds from the camcorder. And I will re root again to try out new ROMs again, Im sure, maybe whatever was farking with my GPS will be ironed out by then.
Aaaaaaand moved. Oh well, less exposure to the people who would potentially know the answer, but what can you do. Next time I will link an old RUU in the thread and everybody will be happy.
Message boards arent really a democracy dude. If someone tells you wrong forum, say sorry, and move it.
Why sit here and whine about it only making enemies of people who could potentially help you? Most people also check the general forum.
Please take a moment to review XDA forum rules, post 2.Anyone found violating these rules will be Banned. Period.
ENOUGH IS ENOUGH
The most important "rule" I urge you not to forget is, HAVE FUN and BE COURTEOUS! Thank you and I look forward to keeping "ORDer" and "Peace" throughout the forum.
Thinking of posting a new thread???

Hi, I'm not new to these forums, but i do not do much posting here. I have a phone i'd like to sell/trade, but i can't access the marketplace. any help? this will only be my 4th post. should i just go post until i reach 10? i just didn't want to spam the forums to get my post count up
The XDA-Developers.com Marketplace, also known as MP, is provided free to members with at least 50 posts and one year of XDA membership. From here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/announcement.php?f=256
So you'll need to post a lot more

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
That's frustrating. I've only been a member for 8 months, I loitered for months before that reading posts in the Desire S forums
Guess I'll find another way to sell my One X.
Would not matter if you meet the requirement, read the Market rules regarding closure:

And no need to post more to increase you count....again read the closure dates on the rules.
Won't matter really as the marketplace is being shut down at the end of the month
