I've got a TMO Alcatel JOY TAB 2 I'm going to root. I wanted to start a thread for it in the appropriate section. But it doesn't exist.
So I guess this is question is probably really directed to the moderators to create a JOY TAB 2 section under Alcatel Hardware.
So we can start QA's and the likes for these.
Thank you for all your time, and consideration.

Not all devices get a forum section here at XDA. There are many variables involved in whether a device gets a forum, they don't get a forum just because someone requests it. There is also a thread here where requests new forums for devices are supposed to be posted.
If your device is not extremely popular or does not have a very large community of users here at XDA or does not have a significant amount of custom development here at XDA, your device will not be given its own section.
If you want to create a thread or post some development that you have created, you can post it in the Android General Development section.

Thanks for the reply, @Droidriven .
As to "There is also a thread here where requests new forums for devices are supposed to be posted."
I looked for this to see if it existed before posting this request. But came up empty. Guess I'll just have post to the General Dumping Ground, and hope for the best.
Thanks again!

i am trying to post to a thread from a rom that i am using right now to mae them aware of an issue i found... but every time i try to reply i get this:

You don't have enough posts to post in the dev sections. For the posters above you. Go to the dev section you want to post in. You can find the moderator of that section if you scroll down to the bottom. Right under where the page numbers are.
how are you supposed to have enough posts in the dev section if you cant post in the dev section?!
Build up your posts in other sections. Then when you have enough posts go back to the dev section you want to post in and make your post.
i did, the text calls for 10 or more posts in other sections, i have 12 in epic 4g q&a, and in general discusion q&a... and i still cant post in dev!!!
Sorry I didn't realize what your post count was. I would send the moderator of that section a pm and ask.
I'm an experienced user, i've been using roms on my old 32A Magic phone for a while never had to ask stuff really, but now I have a problem with the new CM7.2 ROM and I really wanted to ask something in the proper thread but since I didn't have the previleges I have to open a thread and post stuff to reach to minimum number of posts. Sorry for inconvinience dear mods.
can post now a lot of posts?
just to reach the 10 min? Hope so. Don't wanna spam but I really need this issue resolved/answered.
any mods there??? please answer
First off, starting threads to complain about the 10 post rule is just silly. The mods will most likely delete it and you'll be back to 0.
Secondly, if you have a question then just search the Q&A forum for your device, and if it's not already asked then start a thread there.
Personally, I hate people asking questions about ROMs and the like outside of the original dev thread. I think the 10 post rule should only apply to creating threads in the dev forums, not posting.
But I digest.
As I said - the Q&A forum is apparently the correct place for this.
Please use the Q&A Forum for questions Thanks
Moving to Q&A
thanks for the replies.
can you please provide me with a link to the Q&A thread? I searched Q&A Magic and it didnt come up with any thread other than the developers, on wich I cant post yet. Thanks guys.

Wow - there's no Q&A forum. How bizarre!
Anyway, search and (if needed) create a thread in the general forum instead...

I agree..it's pain in the arse..i understand the reasoning but when you've worked in IT or have some semblance of knowledge it's very frustrating and makes no sense when it's a comment about a thread it should be within the thread...i shouldn't have to jump thru hoops first to show that i can post...it surely can't be worse than some of the other crap i've seen people posting..esp when it's already been answered earlier in the thread...that's just lasy...or dare i say it..stupid
I really need to reply in a post... I have some problem with a ROM... so how can I post in the HTC Desire S developement?
thx

How do I know if my posts are helpful?
Or should I get at least 10 Thanks to qualify myself to post in Development thread?
Look around the forum for your device and try to help out by answering questions. Not bringing back long dead threads.

...I need to increase my post count to post ?!? :silly:
If you've been here more than a year then you should know the rules of XDA by now.
If you've only managed three posts in that time (including this thread) then you obviously have done absolutely nothing to contribute to the community.
What's the point in posting pointless threads like this just to try and increase your post count? Reported.
And on that note...
THREAD CLOSED.
I just want to talk and ask questions about a rom I am using but I have to post 10 post to talk?...

You DO NOT need to post in the Dev forum just to talk about a ROM. There is a perfectly adequate General forum and a Q&A forum which you can use.
Believe it or not, XDA was not created for you. It is a Development site for mobile phones and the Development forums are there for discussion of Development, bug fixes etc - not for you to say "Thanks" or to ask pointless questions that just clog up the thread and stop people from finding genuine information when they need to.
Reported.
As far as your thoughts for the 10 post rule:

Its not a massive restriction and to provide 10 useful/helpful posts is not hard.
