Stop attacking everyone!!!

I have seen a lot, and I mean a lot of threads turn into a flame fest immediately after the OP posts. People just want to contribute. Especially new members. Why is it so many of you feel the need to turn any thread you don't like into a total bash fest? REALLY?! I come here to see new things, learn a little, contribute and be informed... Instead I get to wade through a mound of worthless posts and constant thread resurrections. If you don't like it, don't post in it. Isn't that simple. Apparently not for a bunch of people. Why not spend your time contributing or not posting. It would make this place look and feel a lot more like a DEVELOPMENT FORUM than a kiddie pool. There is a general "talk about anything" thread already, so use it instead. Hopefully these words will sink in to a few of you. And don't flame this thread! I've been here longer and modded more than most of you so I feel I have the right to point out what a mess this place is becoming.
Thanks for reading and happy modding.

Some of it is just out of good clean fun and ball busting. I myself like to tease, kid around, and have fun. Most of the other people here do as well. Most stuff posted here isn't to be taken seriously. Although you are correct some of it does get a bit out of hand.
All the new topics in general of members telling us what to do and what not to do here is getting old. If a member has a problem with my comment I will tell them I was just kidding around. If they want to discuss a comment they can feel free to pm me and chat any time. But a mod nor a member here has never told me I acted out of line. One member snapped a bit until I told him I was just kidding and me and him are cool. Some people just have bad days and feel attacked.
In all honesty we are the calmest section on this board that I've seen. Everywhere else is 100x worse. We like to have fun here.

I never mean to be a douche but its in my DNA LOL if anyone has a problem yes I know I'm a huge target of this thread either say it or pm me I mostly joke around

I didn't say that's ALL you do..... But I am implying that it is something you do none the less. This is not about you though... I love this place, and have for years.... I just don't want it to get too far away from what it once was. A DEVELOPERS FORUM.

Its hard to keep that when the same news article gets posted 12 times in a row or the same question gets posted again cuz some noob doesn't pay attention

I have a problem with members making threads telling other members what to do, but I don't make a thread about it. Take offense? No, obviously though some people get offended easier than others.

My post today which has since been deleted was not meant to be trolling. In fact it was the first time i made a joke here at all.
I was trying to draw attention to a problem and it obviously worked.
Feel free to label me a troll if you wish but as far as i am concerned xda is not a trolling ground and i am far from it. Do i know how to push buttons? Yes but only when necessary.
Nrm and i did exchange a few cracks but as i said they were in jest.
So if my thread was seen as disruptive i apologize. I was just trying to help those like me who wanted to see a little change.

Same goes for you. You and I have no qualms and id love to see you jump in any future threads of mine (given they aren't development once i get there! LoL).
On one hand Im glad the mods cleaned up a bit. On the other i hope i didn't create a monster where no fun at all can be had. There needs to be a balance and a place. Only time will tell!
Regardless, as stated before i think our forum far surpasses others and Im glad to be here and can't wait to post some development! (a little trickier than i expected but Im slowly getting it)
Happy xdaying everyone!

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

Were you that kid in class who always asked the stupidest questions about things that the teacher just finished explaining?
Then when the guy in front of you would call you an idiot you would say, "what's his problem, can't we just get along?" ...
You seem like that kinda guy to me. This is about learning through resources available not cliff notes that you want other people to create for you.

Whatever you say sir whatever you say!
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!

What's the difference between posting about the competition as the owner, or posting the exact same thing as a casual member?
I could've pretended to be a casual user of the forum, but I thought I might get more support if you all knew I had just started these forums and need help getting the ball rolling.

Questions in dev threads.....how do we compare?

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.
Great job everyone, we should all be proud.

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...

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.

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.

Why there are two Windows phone forum on home page?

Wp8 is just a successor of wp7, why are there two separate forums? Will there be a third wp forum when wp9 comes out?
Why aren't there separate forum for Android 2, 3 and 4?
