The title says it.
yeah its wierd, hes a excellent contributor.
From what i gathered, i think some1 either had access to his acct, and mods banned him from preventing more changes OR he is dealing with some personal issues.
And whats your bussiness in that?
And why you creating this useless thread?
And in this section?
Like watching a car wreck, we are all curious. I agree with Kristoff_sz, it does not belong here. It should probably be dropped and left for the Mods to sort out.
My best to Bengalih. He was a respected and valued member of the forum.
bengalih's actions are under review.
Thank you for you understanding.

Would this not be better asked in Q&A or the Dash forum??? Nothing to do with Development & Hacking, but as a quick answer check sig.
thread moved
hope you now will get another answer too
nope still no solid answer.. you could have waited until i got an answer to move it
Questions are meant to be posted in the QUESTIONS section, not in the DEVELOPMENT section.
that's why it writes QUESTIONS in the Q&A section and not something else.
do read the rules before posting, and when someone moves your thread, trust that they didn't do it because they were bored.
everyone needs their questions answered fast.
and please don't double post questions, it's not going to help you get what you want faster... maybe the other way around.
you got a concrete answer from stylez... who has the Dash and said it's better.

you have a question it goes in the q&a section. PERIOD.
If he wouldn't have moved it someone else would have. Your lucky he was being nice and didn't give you a temp ban for posting in the wrong section knowing full and well it was the wrong section.
haha wow this site got way to rediculous with this sticky bs and mods out the wazoo i used to love this site now its just filled with over powered people who take this way to seriously what happend to the old xda where people where kind enough to answer questions no matter what section they were in and that was only a year ago... i guess gone is the old ways of a few sections and a handfull of IMPORTANT stickies and the brother like feeling when you did ask something or you created something no mater if it was usefull or not people still cared enouh to be kind... and now it looks like xda tore its self and its following and integrity apart with all this over structurized crap, power hungry a$$hole mods (except for the oldschool guys and a few newer like noonski and abraker...etc.) and honestly ive been around for awhile im a senior member and contribute my work and helped others i know the rules and everyhing SO STOP TELLING ME TO FOLLOW THEM IF YOU DIDNT GO CHANGING THEM EVERY WEEK IT WOULD BE FINE!.. but guys come on pull your selfs together your acting like the idiots at enron! ban me if you must but its just a shame you let this happen...
these mods have to stop stepping all over senior members and treating us like were effing children or cattle its just pathetic!
btw. i dont think anybody even checks those damn stickies besides mods
and i ddnt care it was moved at all and i didnt care that i put it in the wrong section i needed a fast answer(your Q/A thread would have taken to long to get an answer!) i knew it would get moved or deleted AFTER I GOT AN ANSWER and dev/hacking has the most views and the most knowledgeable people who could help me out fast! and i needed the info from a developer that may have worked with both because i am a developer and have never used either device i create for the elf and mogul.
follow the rules and have a wonderful day.
for your information, most threads in the Q&A section are responded to after no more than 2-3 hours.
Not trying to start a beef or cause a problem for anyone here. I'm just wondering. There was a thread last night that was about the Imagio/Whitestone and I finally connected with other people using it and someone gave me some helpful advice. I got up this morning and came to this forum to thank that person for their help and the thread says that its closed. What happened? Like I said, I'm not trying to cause any problems. I would just really like to know what the reason was and why it was shut down. Did we do something wrong? If we did I'd like to make sure that I don't make that mistake in the future. All constructive and positive comments are welcome.
Threads are normally closed when answered. Moderators normally leave a comment in closing, but sometimes, due to time constraints, real lifes issues, or because they think it's obvious, etc. they don't.
I've had to look for your thread, seen as though you didn't post a link . It looks like it was another discussion on the creation / search for a Whitestone forum. There is a Topaz CDMA section that covers that, so the matter is closed. I think in this case the moderator decided there was nothing more to discuss.
Thread closed (j/k'ing)

In my experience, a thread will usually be closed because:
It's been posted before. When somebody opens 5 identical threads in 5 different places all about the same thing, most of them will be closed and deleted.
The thread is quickly on its way to becoming a flame war, and mods close it to keep the peace.
It's spam. Spam threads will be closed and deleted.
It's redundant. The original poster will have asked a question which was answered in a Sticky, the wiki, or could have easily been found had they searched.
The thread has served its purpose, such as a question being asked, and nothing more needs to be added to the thread. I think this is probably what happened to the thread you mentioned.
The the original poster has requested it be closed for some reason.
It contains warez, or otherwise violates one of these rules.
Looks like Dave beat me to it
I was SO HAPPY when I read the post about "Operation Iron Fist", and SO DISAPPOINTED when I saw the enforcement in action.
Can we PLEASE start issuing 24-48 hour bans for people who break or disregard forum rules?
Example: The VERY FIRST POST in the dev section is titled "If you didn't create "it", then it doesn't belong in Development", and the rest of the post goes on to tell you WHY and WHERE YOU SHOULD POST if you don't meet the criteria for the dev section. A thread like "TEAM TOXIC on GALAXY S 4G" should not have had time to get 9 replies, and the OP should be banned for at least 24 hours for BLATANTLY disregarding the rules.
I saw a thread a couple of days back where a guy was trying to make a place where people could post their WidgetLocker mods/themes. The OP specifically asked people to NOT reply to the thread unless they were posting a theme, but instead they should PM the person with their question and request they update their post with the answer. This thread has AT LEAST 100 ***IDIOTS*** in it asking question after question, making request after request, despite the OPs wishes, and no mod has *ever* done anything about it.
I don't know if "Operation Iron Fist" was a joke or a serious endeavor, but from the looks of things, I'm gonna have to go with the former. People who disregard the rules at their whim -- first time offenders or not, unknowingly or not -- are EXACTLY what is driving devs away from XDA in mass numbers.
I guess what I'm trying to say, here, is; Could we have some ORDER around here? ENFORCE the rules, and start giving people a REASON to follow them...
"Damn, I should have read the rules before I posted that, now I'm banned for a day" -- That guy won't break that rule, again.
"Wow, I just got a warning from a mod because I didn't follow a rule. Oh well" - That guy will break the rules again -- probably including the one he JUST got a warning for.
I've moderated my fair share of forums in my day, and I have to say the **** I see people get away with on here is appalling.
Anyways, that's my two-cents on the subject. I'm pretty frustrated and fed up with having to dig through MOUNTAINS of bull**** to get little tidbits of useful information just because some selfish jackass can't be bothered with reading and following the rules.
Have to agree with you but it is a very big Forum so we cannot read everything that is posted so we need every ones help that way helping us is helping you in the long rum.
As far as the Punishment goes we do have a fair system that includes infractions and bans depending on the crime.
So please if you see anything Report the Post or drop me a pm
Thanks Guys

No. I'm saying that people should be a little more considerate of others, and not clutter up potentially useful threads and forums with unnecessary stuff. I guess I'm also saying that the penalties for it should be a little more harsh and frequent, IMO.
I have to admit, though, I haven't been making much use of the report button, myself, so I haven't been doing my part, either. That changes here
I do think that people should post threads in their proper forum and that mods are doing a good job, you have to remember that they do have lives outside of xda, they can't be here 24/7.
Sent from my SGH-T959V using XDA App
Yeah, sometimes I kinda lose sight of stuff like that and get a little wound. Thanks for the check, guys
Still pretty frustrated about all the inconsiderate people, though *shrug*
i would appreciate it,
Wiki at my signature and next time dont use devs section remember theres an Q/A section
All your other posts are in the Vibrant forum. You're a senior member. And you ask a question in a dev forum for the wrong phone? Let alone a lazy question? Not so bright and lazy! Great combo you have going for yourself. Flash everything thing you see in this dev forum. We have some great stuff

Man I agree with you 100%, I had to read it twice to see how lazy some people are....
You want someone to make you a sandwich and then have them feed it to you as well?
