I've been your Moderator for a little over a month now, and wanted to get some feedback from everyone.
How do you all think I'm doing?
Do you all have any suggestions for me?
I'm here for you guys, so if there is something you notice, or something you need, don't hesitate to ask.
My ultimate goal as your Moderator, is to get this forum in tip top shape. This is a community effort, and everyone's input is important. Let's work together to get the Amaze forums where I know they can be.
I look forward to your feedback.
Thank You.

Hmm, I'd agree with everything everyone has said.. the only other feedback I'd say was in regards to an issues thread you closed. Yes, there are still too many ics threads(it was older than the "everything ics thread"), but overtime hopefully some will be useful. The everything ics thread will eventually become too hard to search, so threads that serve specific purposes rather than be grouped up in an "everything" thread will potentially help keep things organized..
You've been incredibly patient, and you inherited a forum that has a sorta ugly past.. but you've done pretty much more than I could have expected. Keep up the good work, I'm glad we have you.

Thank you, SBD. I like your idea about creating a simplified ICS thread. I agree with you about the "everything ICS" Thread. Lengthy threads can be intimidating to new users. Feel free to create a noob guide to ICS in the general section. Thanks for your input.

Just wanted to say thank you for the support in my threads. It seems my thread stalker has serious issues. Unfortunately my thread was deleted before I got to read what you said, but I appreciate the backup. I hate to say it but the childish ones have turned this forum into flame heaven. A few developers have already left as well as several members. I swear the average owner of this phone must be 12 years old or just have no friends.
This being the general section people can pretty much post what they want as there are posts about tablets and other things that have nothing to do with the 3d. That is the point of having a general section.
Anyway, I hate the fact my thread was closed as I wanted you guys to see the new note. It is truly an awesome device and although not everyone is interested in it, there were several people who were and sent me pm's.
Although I spend most of my time in the Note forums now I do check in here to see what is happening as I have gotten to know several of you guys and many of you have helped me out over the months.
I wish everyone could get along and the internet wrestling would stop. There are friends to be made here and people out to help.

Within the last couple months, OP decided that the best way to fight flamers was to open

What we have here, is yet another invitation.

Not thread stalking you, just trying to keep the EVO 3D section to relevant posts that help the community. Coming in and starting a thread pretty much bragging that you got a new phone does nothing for the community. And then starting a new thread complaining about it when it gets deleted, what else is there to say? I can't even count how many threads of yours got deleted or moved because of my statement above. I am sorry that you think that I thread stalk you, but man, you make it soooooooooo easy.

Well look who it is, the loser thread stalker asshat . And for the smart ones who talk about clogging up the forum I guess the threads about what tablets to get, what ROM is the best or the ones about other phones comparing to the 3d are ok, right? You morons make no sense nor do your arguments. like I told panda, the average age of owners of the 3d is like 12 especially since your points have no logic nor do they make sense. The best thing is you continue to prove my point with your ignorant posts

Or, look at my posts and see that helpful, productive members of the community also do not condone these types of threads. There is a standard that should be upheld here by all of XDA
members.
General section is for general threads ABOUT the evo 3D. That is why it is the Evo 3D general section.
This position that you have that "everyone should like what I have to say", or "what I say is better then <insert anything>" is childish.
You are why this place is going downhill, not because of the people who have gown impatient with your frivolous threads, posts, etc...

Lmao, ask around, I bet people loved that thread. It was quite great. Unfortunately, I didn't take the time to see if there was already a similar thread, hence it was closed.
So, good job, you cite a thread that was to help the members of the community....
Also, that just goes to show, that in fact, you Sir, are the 12 year old girl. Maybe 13, but meh, the exactness is moot.
What satisfaction do you get from the constant barrage of XDA? Does it make you feel special to 'win' arguments,
over the internet, with people you have never met, and likely never will?
Did you not get enough love as a child? Are you picking obnoxious fights with strangers to somehow fill that gap?
Or possibly, did you get too much love? Did someone make you feel too special, to the point where you thought you mattered?
Either way, it is old, it is annoying, and everyone would appreciate if you handed daddy back his computer
Oh for goodness sake. Can we stop with the childish petty arguing.
Is it really a surprise to you that these threads keep getting closed?
Take it to PM and sort out the issue. Don't start yet another crappy thread.
Do the roms that are built for the N7000 work for the SAMSUNG-SGH-I717?? I only ask because...
1.) The I7I7 has only one ROM available and its not ICS where as the N7000 has several ROMs available.
2.) I know its possible because I run Desire HD roms on my HTC Inspire.
Thanks for all the help guys.

Apples and oranges. The Desire HD and Inspire 4G are basically the same phone. The hardware is the same except for some minor differences with the sound hardware. The international Note and ATT Note are completely different phones. The only thing they have in common is the size, screen, pen and they have similar cases. That's it. Everything else is different.

Absolutely questionable response and uncalled for...even suggesting that isnt humorous and maybe you should be concerned as to what people will perceive about you. Im just about sick and tired of all the rudeness and blatant self rightgeousness on these forums, members need to show some self-respect by not being rude. This forum has some NEW RULES as the base subscriber is no longer DEVELOPMENT ONLY the majority of us are not developers...they have their own section for each device to which noobs are restricted and should be, so giving people and noobs a hard time for something posted in the GENERAL and Q&A sections is ridiculous, so maybe show a little restraint if you choose not to help and just move on without posting anything!
Listen, I know a lot of noobs and others make mistakes and dont follow the rules but why jump on them outside of the DEV's threads? If you do as a senior or junior member then you also are breaking the rules!

2.3 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.
2.5 Courtesy towards other Members: Treat new members the way you would like to have been treated when you were a new member. When dealing with any member, provide them with guidance, advice and instruction when you can and always with respect and courtesy. Never post in a demanding, argumentative, disrespectful or self-righteous manner.
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.

Being a bit of a newb myself. I wondered if anyone agrees that there should be at separate Q&A for noob (novice) questions only.
Therefore more experienced users can filter out stupid questions that even I think is ridiculous. Leaving the Q&A for real problems, rather than simple and stupid questions like "how do I flash a new modem" etc. I propose this idea in all platforms and models.
I felt as a true noob, some time ago that people are very quick to snap at noobs. Leaving them feeling like quitting and giving up. As a community member I feel this is an issue. Having a Q&A for noobs I hope would not leave noob questions unanswered.. just only given advice from willing and helpful members. Leaving experienced or dare I say selfish user the freedom they desire, and the noobs that extra bit of support.
After all, this is a community and we are "supposed" to be helpful. And we all started without any knowledge atall. I am eager to hear your responses.. both noobs and pro devs.
What are your thoughts on this?
Thank me if you agree or better still, post your thoughts. Thanks for your patience in reading my rant

To be honest most ppl brand themselves as noobs. I feel I am learning very quickly, currently learning java. Some people just don't have the patience. Can't be bothered to search. As I have learnt in my experiences that you have to be very patient and start all over again often. As for people who don't search.. that's just pure laziness. Ah well the strong will prevail..

There's a difference between being "noob friendly" and catering to the minority of what is already a minority. Let's not forget XDA's origins as a DEVELOPER site. The directions provided by devs are almost always complete enough that anyone willing to put in 5 minutes worth of effort to use the search button is able to figure it out.

I agree that we shouldnt be spoon feeding people. I have gathered knowledge in android and developing massivly over the past few weeks. And i have xda to thanks. Already a senior member and learnt so much more than what i could have ever imagined.
Android is the future! And xda is playing a big part in molding its future. So a massive thumbs up!
I did however encounter some very rude members how could have easily directed me to the rules sticky. We do not need noob Q&A. We jus need to give polite gentle nudges in the right direction, if they are just plain lazy...
Throw em in with the pack of bitter xda "originals" for all i care. as they are branding xda as a "fix my fone" forum. Not as what i hear it was back in the day..

Hey forum,
First off I'd like to say, I have done quite a bit of searching on this and either get caught up in endless pages of crap I don't fully understand or I just can't find the answer. My apologies if this issue is simple and out there.
With that said, I'm definitely a noob at all the rooting and ROMs for phones. I've spent 20 years using cell phones as.. well, phones! Had no idea the world that was waiting for me and the time consuming hours of research and trial and error.
So I got the Amaze and first off, wanted to root it so I used CWM which is currently running. I then get an update notification for ICS but every time I try to install it, I'm stuck at a green X logo.
Is there a way to install ICS with CWM already on my phone or do I need to remove it first? I have searched for both answers which is why I finally set up an account and created this thread.
Any and all assistance is greatly appreciated!

Hey thanks for your incredibly condescending reply! I see by your "thanks" meter you obviously have no idea how to provide value to others, especially newcomers.
use hasoons toolkit to flash the stock recovery back onto your phone, then if the boot loader is unlocked go and relock it. then after those 2 things are done, attempt to upgrade to ics.
after you upgrade to ics you can root and unlock it again.
Please keep all question related threads in the Q&A section only. Thank You.
Thread Moved.

Really? It takes two people to tell me this? This was first post ever and I already created another thread in the right section. This one can be deleted though. Definitely had my issues resolved. Thanks!
nice sig... probably my most favorite Rush song and lyric of all time!

The other person wasn't a Moderator. So yeah, I had to tell you. No worries though. Rush is my favorite. I've been drumming and following Neil Peart since the 80's. Great stuff man. Glad to meet a fellow Rush fan.
Thread Closed.
PS: In the future, if you mis-post for some reason, I can move the thread, as creating duplicate threads is against the rules.

There's been complaints but I think devs here are probably all over it.

Not just Devs. Users with slow internet connection will be thankful as well. Benefits both sides
While I can appreciate your intent, please refrain from creating threads that link to other threads. Creating a thread to discuss another thread is redundant, and creates clutter.
Thread Closed.
