We need some moderation here! - Motorola Droid X2

Now that the Droid X2 forums are becoming active it's time that we get some moderation. There is a lot of off-topic talk going on and it's making it difficult to follow the original topic. Not only that but there are a lot of great post that could be made sticky for quick review when needed.

Id be willing to moderate

[Q] Kaosfroyo 35.1 photo gallery issues

Wanted to thank xda for the awesome work......I'll donate in a few days....
I installed kaosfroyo 35.1 and tested it and all Is well except one minor problem with the gallery........when launched it loads everything just fine.......but if I rotate my phone I get the gallery but the images are white........only happens sometimes and if I rotate back sometimes it reloads the images as it should.......also if I'm viewing a image and rotate the phone.....the image becomes skewed ......I think I can change a setting to fix this but not sure which to change.........thanks to all again for all your work.....you guys rock......
Ciao

No harm asking those question in that ROM's thread either. That's kinda what it's there for.
and always remember,
read the FAQ in the thread first. there is a reason its there as it will help with any of the problems you are going to encounter.
also, another thing to help you is the search function for this site...and also the god site of the internet GOOGLE
Will do........
@ Eric.....I'm new to this rom stuff........do i have to flash the 2 d gallery......where is the link to the download.......

Jesus christ stop posting so many periods.
ASK IN THE KAOSFROYO TOPIC or even in the Questions and Answers area. In no way could this ever arguably belong in the developers area.

New entry for "POST OF THE YEAR"
I don't begrudge anyone asking questions but man the same ones over and over gets to be a little much. Funny thing is the poor guy (OP) didn't know I was making fun of his redundant post.
Suggestion... buy a camera.

In his defense, from what I've seen in the Kaos thread they would have just mocked him and told him to search instead of ask questions. Whether his issue had been reported in the thread or not wouldn't matter.

(Q) How to disable the backlight on 4 bottom buttons

Is there a way to disable the backlights on the 4 heaptic buttons (menu, home, bsck, search)...I really dislike it and had the option to remove on the Epic Touch (like the feature, not the phone). Please help with suggestions, I'm running Alien rom also if that might help!
T.I.A.
The only response you deserve : Post in the Q&A Section of the forums.
Download spareparts+ for hepatic, to turn the lights off, a poster here at xda had a app that i couldnt find on the market i think it was led off or something. Be aware, as you can see posting in the wrong section will get ppl to hate you.... i on the other hand, like to help, not bash just a heads up..

However, when you enable peoples bad behaviour, they will never stop. And when other people see the same thing, they will continue the bad behaviour.
Please don't enable these people.

Not criticize over petty stuff, this is my first posting and it was done on my Photon using the xda premium app. I see why Dev's leave forums now, y'all people too rude.

Posting questions in the dev section is akin to putting all the pages in a tech manual in random order and expecting people to find what they need. I abandoned ALL Evo development because of all the questions that got posted in the dev section after the price drop. This was days away from releasing what would have been a webtop equivalent for the Evo PC Project.
Thread move request placed.

Please use search....

I know there are alot of people new to xda on here and alot of new android users, however if you look in our general boards there are tons of topics that are being repeated. Please use search because odds are you question or concern might have come up or discussed already.
Im not trying to be rude or make people mad, but when you signed up its part of the rules.

This pointless thread clutters up the forum just as bad as someone who doesn't use the search function and posts something, there hasn't even been a problem of redundant threads in this forum (yet).
The phone has been out less than a week and we have like 4 or 5 tmobile threads, 4 visual voicemail, atleast 3 city id, i see a pattern coming on.

I agree. This should probably be stickied, as it is quite difficult to follow a thread with so many new redundant ones being created. I may have at some point, but if the number of new redundant posts is reduced, it will be better for everybody.
That being said, a whole lot of the users here are completely new to android and XDA as a result, therefore they don't fully know the rules and will need to learn. Having this thread stickied would probably help that.
I can appreciate your intentions, but I guarantee you someone who was planning on opening a redundant thread is not going to open this thread first and have some mind-blowing epiphany about the metastasizing cancer of reckless thread starting without using the search feature and thus starting a thread about something that's been previously posted about.
Besides, the mods here would get bored.

this is honestly getting ridiculous, if you cannot figure this out, please at least TRY to do some research, and if doesn't make sense, research more, then ask in the Q&A/General forum.. seriously dude.. its stuff like this CONSTANTLY that is making XDA ridiculous.. I don't know how much more I can handle of this stuff.. its every 5 min someone does not read the rules understand the forums where to post, what to ask, how to do a SIMPLE search or even a google search.. :smh: ;-( PLEASE AT LEAST TRY.. please... did you watch the n00b video when you registered or did you just skip it???
edit: and I also wonder if a button similar the thanks button that can be implemented in XDA Forums but instead of "Thanks" a "Please try to search" and if other members hit the "Please try to search" on that particular post a certain number of times (maybe 3 - 5 ppl) then the user is no longer allowed to post in dev forum for 10 days. just a suggestion cause XDA is really going down the pooper lately.. I know I have less than 100 posts and I'm not DEV by any means, and my Join date is just a bit over a year ago (but I at least try all of the above first) so I don't come off as a total ____ maybe I'm overreacting after reading too many of these but maybe not.. you mod's can decide. /rant

I don't understand why people have to insult others when they ask a question. Yes I understand there is a search function,but instead of insulting others and claiming that they're ruining XDA, why can't you just point them to the right direction and not be a elistest prick?
All it takes is 1 person to say read the rules and search instead of OMGWTF use google/search! and oh BTW gtfo because you ruin XDA.

The rules of xda

I don't really like the rules even tho im sure there is a reason. But for a romer like me whose been roming since droid A855 its rough. I never post because I usaully just read through the forum if I have a problem. But I finally had a question that nobody asked and I couldn't post because of the rules. I just wish maybe a questionnaire or something could be used to evaluate who is new to roming or if u just are new to XDA. This isn't a rant just post of clarification.

I have seen this brought up in the forums of the past 5 phones I have owned. That is over a 2.5 year period. I've never seen XDA even attempt to care to try this.
It was also discussed that you would have to past a questionnaire or test before you could post in the developer sections period. To many people post in the dev section when they shouldn't.
