Who's banned? Maybe it wasn't such a bad thing - did someone blatantly do the wrong thing- someone who knew better?
Too much drama and banning here lately I'm not surprised you taking a break.. Take it easy bro

I just read about a couple people getting banned for a really stupid reason... The reason being for having a signature that has another forum in it.
I know its against the xda rules but come on! Is a big site like xda really gonna have anything to worry about lol. Nobody's gonna steal its fame.

The banning process is a collective effort. It's a decision that is made by a group of people. Bans are almost always well deserved and only initiated after other measures have failed. I hope this helps.

Well, it kinda serves a purpose - I mean do we want one coherent community, or do we want a fractured one where people are trying to redirect users to THEIR forum rather than use this one- whatever their motivation. Like if we are talking about the same outside forum, I think that a lot of those actions hurt amaze owners in the long run..
Me personally, I have no allegiance to do anything but help others as I help myself if I can, I'm not opposed to people on other forums benefiting from anything I do, but neither would I try to direct them here or vice versa.
I do recall what our mod saying as being absolutely true - they don't hand out bans lightly, and their rules are not ridiculous or hard to follow by far. I see some get away with some things(some devs pointing to other miui forums in their sig for example, not here), but no one really just ignores them altogether for the most part.
Meh, I'm shutting up, I really don't want to see any drama filled arguments, or at least don't want to contribute to starting one by far.

I understand where you're coming from. Rules are set in place for a reason, and every member should know them, and follow them. Without rules, XDA would be chaotic. While certain things can be overlooked, others can not. Don't be afraid to post, that's not what we want for our members. That's why I.encourage everyone to read the rules and understand them. When I joined XDA back in 2007, I will admit that I didn't take the time to read the rules, as a result, I was making mistakes, posting in the wrong sections. Because of that, Moderators were moving, closing, and giving me warnings tonread the rules. Needless to say, my experience on XDA wasn't a pleasurable one. I decided to read the rules, and it taught me a lot of important things about how XDA operates. It was the best thing I did, and because of that, I was able to avoid making mistakes, which in turn kept the Moderators off my back. Now that I'm a Moderator I have a new appreciation for what Moderators do.
The same thing can be said about the Developers. They work so hard to bring us a lot of great things. They also spend a lot of time creating FAQ's to help members hack/mod their phones, yet some people just can't be bothered to take the time and read, read, read. :banghead:
At the end of the day, most problems could be avoided if people simply read the rules and followed them. Like I said earlier cerain minor offenses can be overlooked, while others can not. At the risk of sounding harsh, the rules are not a democracy, and those who fail to read and obide by them, will suffer the concequences.
Hope this helps.

As of late, there have been numerous outbursts by forum members that have caused this forum to go haywire and this place isn't as welcoming as it should be. A great Dev has already raised his concerns for the hostility that has occurred and it is obvious OUR actions have been the root of this issue.
I know we're all excited about this new phone and the possibilities once S-Off is achieved but we really need to come together and combine our knowledge (some more than others obviously) and make this a great experience for all. There will be many new "faces" to android and HTC phones in general which do not know how things work but let's try to be patient and not snap back with snooty or disrespectful remarks.
At the end of the day, we are all here to improve our device ad increase in knowledge. It takes respect to earn respect so let's keep it cool between all of us (members, Devs, & Mods) so we may continue to be productive and learn.
Basically keep your effin mouth shut and fingers still unless u have something real to add. Any problems u have with someone keep it in pm's. One of the biggest reasons why this forum sucks and alot of ppl left and refuse to come back. Grow up and shut up

Why all the hostility guys? Let's take a step back and relax. I don't care if this is XDA, Android Forums, RootzWiki... they're all here for us to communicate about the devices and to help each other. I enjoy getting on the forums and helping to troubleshoot issues or to celebrate new modifications for our devices, but it makes it difficult when everyone is fighting each other.
Let's just be calm and patient. We're very close to having Rezound freedom. Once it's official, things will be much calmer and everyone will want to work together on this device!

Note to Mods: If this is completely against the rules feel free to close. I apologize for wasting space and completely understand.
With that being said, I have noticed a lot of hate and off topics posts going a lot in this community: especially in the development thread. Why guys? It's getting to the point where we are pushing away really great developers. Here's a couple rules that I'd like to share.
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.
2.4 Personal attacks, racial, political and/or religious discussions:
XDA is a discussion forum about certain mobile phones. Mobile phones are not racial, political, religious or personally offensive, therefore none of these types of discussions are permitted on XDA.
We should be trying to help eachother.... Oh yeah that's another rule...
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.
I understand people all have their personal issues and this can impact their posts. I'm not going to say I'm above it because I've gotten into some heated discussions, too. If you have to let some steam off--let it off in here. I think it will make everyone feel a little better and relieve some hate off other threads.
For example: I was at school the other day and I accidentally sh*t my pants... it was sooo embarassing!!!!!!
or maybe:
My girlfriend cheated on me when she went on summer vacation to cancun!
Those were just examples though... they definitely never happened to me personally or anything.
Disclaimer: Please DO NOT use this thread to start a flame war with other members on xda! This is just meant to get something off your chest and hopefully make you feel a little better. I know it works for me. If you have any issues with a member DON'T POST IT IN HERE!
Forgive me if I wasn't clear before, but this thread is meant to VENT YOUR FRUSTRATIONS! It can be in regards to anything, no matter how immature or stupid it sounds. If another member has an issue with that post, unless it's a personal attack (which I've already stated should not be posted in this thread), please just bite your tongue and let the poster let some stress out. This isn't meant to be a highly intensive, thought provoking thread. This was just meant for personal issues; seems like if it has anything remotely to do with phones people will relate it to xda and take offense.
And again... if Mods feel like this isn't a good idea then I will understand.
Well said man! While we are on a roll; it really irks me when people get short with the devs for not delivering a release or fix in a timely fashion. These guys have jobs school and family's and still manage to turn out amazing works that they may or may not receive monetary compensation for. Be gracious and grateful to these guys or learn to do it yourself!

That wasn't me all right! I heard about it from my friend. I heard they had to call the kid's mom to bring him a new pair of underwear. And the cheating thing... She was just drunk and she said Jose didn't mean anything to her. I heard about it though.... I'm not talking about myself personally... Seriously.... It's not about me.

You get more comfortable with experience. My DInc was so easy to flash ROMs, although I only ever flashed Skyraider and Jermaine's Stock Plus after GB OTA'd.
How many ROMs have you flashed? Once the devs adjust to s-off, flashing becomes less of a process. One of the advantages of s-off.
Also, how do I put this? I see a lot of posts in General complaining about people abusing the devs in the dev section. But when I go to Scott's threads, and rarely to others, the posts are almost exclusively thanking the devs. Can anyone provide me a link to a few threads where the devs are being treated unreasonably? Or even just a few posts or posters who get out of control?
That's something that bothers me, when I see people getting reactive or over-protective of the devs, but then there is no indication that a dev was treated badly.
And by the way, I hand out my thanks freely, and I think we've got great people doing some great work here.

I don't think the reply was to people on xda. I think it was just a generalized post: not meant to be taken to xda members. No disrespect, but this thread is not meant to be made about any members of xda in a negative light. I'd appreciate if that discussion ended right now.

I am soo tired of hearing about poor battery, heat issues, being attributed to roms, leaks/radios, and whatever else is new at the time. I find it hard to believe that I am the only lucky S.O.B. that has had none of these issues, and I've flashed most of these. IMO, most of these issues are due to the H.I.P., Human Interface Program.
Consider it off my chest.

How is it helpful to start not one, but two basically useless threads just to say, "Here I am!" If you want to help and can, then just do it instead of trying to make yourself look like the forum's savior. There is a forum for introductions because they don't belong anywhere else.
Man you guys have serious issues..
The reason I went right to name calling is that is exactly how your behaving. You don't want his help then shut the **** up and let it pass.
You wanna be moderators need to get a hobby...

How else is someone going to make it known that he wants to help besides making a thread? Go through messaging all the developers and message random people he may think could start developing? Oh and by the way... If anyone wants a mirror to some file i'd be happy to upload to my dropbox and give a link. Just to help out..

No actually we aren't wanna be moderators, they have enough work. We just try to lessen their load. Posts likr this simply should not be made. Yeah the cursing really gets your point across. Nice job there dude.

They don't. If the developers offer it that's all well and great and if you ask in their thread has usually okay too but making a thread is simply not necessary.

I understand it's not entirely necessary. but why not? I just read all the rules and there's absolutely nothing that says anything against this thread. The rules do mention things against what has been said about the guy starting this thread. And rule #10 seems to make starting this thread perfectly ok, right?
You want to help? Then find a thread where you have expertise or desire and post in it. Starting one of these threads is unnecessary and starting two just shows how clueless you are. I won't even comment on the racial undertones of his member name.
Alright folks...
Yes, he shouldn't have posted this in a new thread, and certainly not twice. However, XDA is a place for CIVIL discourse.
We can politely point out his error, then report the thread for a Mod and move on. All the junk that follows is nearly as bad as the OP.
Simply ignoring bad posts/threads is a lot easier than flaming the OP then flaming each other.
Now let's all move on...

...wtf...
Ugh. I understand the OP was just trying to be helpful and thats commendable, but its not necessary to make a thread about it. At the very lest, a post can be made in the rom/kernel threads donating his time to help.
Trolls be trollin...
I would like to make a request to the community.
We, as a community really need to shape-up. This place is absolutely crazy. There are harmless threads that turn into spam and people complaining about aosp. The fact is we need to stop this. All of you know you hate this too but stooping down to the level of these trolls only makes things worse.
What we really need is for the mod team to really come down hard on this place. Not just the trolls but everyone. Everyone has a role in this.
People need to be infracted or banned or whatever and these threads need to be sent to the damn trash.
This isn't just a job for the mods either. Users need to stop feeding the fire that trolls start.
We need to take the initiative to shape up before this community goes down as the one that scared everyone off and died. Seriously think about it...
I've been wondering why people aren't banned.

Seriously people need to get banned at least temporarily.
It's pretty simple, really. Ignore them, report them, they will go away.

I must be in the wrong threads.
I use Nilsp's ROM exclusively, so I don't get into many other threads. His thread is relatively clean, with very few people asking questions answered in the first page...and absolutely no sniping at all.

Mikion and Chef Holmes have both been temporarily disabled I think. They both flamed the hell out of all Joelz's threads.
I don't get what the dispute is between XDA and The MikMik. They're both resources for Android development so it makes no sense? If it were Android vs iOS, maybe I'd understand more but this is lunacy.
Developers such as Newt and Scott both frequent both sites and share their work on both so what's the big deal?

I am guessing it is probably due to the fact that if you mention stuff from devs here over there no one gets mad, but so help you god if you mention a dev that went to themikmik over here, as you are probably about to start a flame war...

I don't think the mod team even exists anymore in this section.
I haven't seen YZ in forever. Numerous people have wanted their threads closed, but they stay open, and all the flame threads still exist.

The mods are still around. I posted a farewell thread the other day and decided to change the title of the OP and tell everyone about it (sorry about that by the ways guys).
Now that thread has been completely removed, so they're definitely still active...
The ironic part about it, is that I'm still on the Rezound forums even though I bought a Nexus (I still own my Rezound though so I guess I'm allowed - no more trolling, I swear).

You should actually go spend a week there and say this again. I can very well say the same thing about xda.

Yep, and every time someone tries to bring up the xda drama the mods/admins tell everyone to stop. They are definitely taking the high road for the most part.
My opinion, we need to just stop already. These threads are just giving validity to our reputation. We all just need to relax, be respectful to each other, and show some appreciation for the work that the devs do for us for free.
As for the dev on dev public fighting - this just needs to not be tolerated. Period. Either take it to PM, or just shrug your shoulders and say "meh" and keep on keeping on. The only thing the public fighting does is get the rest of the community fired up and then the bashing amongst the devs fans starts. I think the public dev fighting is what really tarnishes this community. Their are always *****y, ungrateful, douchebags within the normal every day users. Everyone just needs to ignore them and let the mod team handle it.
My .02 cents of course.
Ok so while I was browsing the s3 forums and found a revolution thread (for those that don't know revolution is also adjust reviewers etc)
So he this is how the convo went..
R=Revolution/Reviewers
E: Me
R: k guys I will make a new Rom with a new samsung base but I will do it without a kitchen
E:how are you going to build off a new base without a kitchen or linux
R: dude get out of my thread blah blah you follow me everywere blah blah
E: I don't follow you anywhere I'm just curious. I'm also warning these people cause you put out Roms that are 90% broken, and you chased away like 5-10 devs from xda
R-omg bro that is 100% bullsh&@% I know more than what I did before
E: you are quick to be offended, I was just asking a question about development, if what I said was a lie than why get all angry
Then boom I got a pm from a mod saying that I would get penalized next time I do that
He also said that he expected more from an RC
Well excuse my French but I was being fair besides all I said was the truth
Also mods you could close this wenever, I just wanted to be heard

Honestly man, you should have just not commented in his thread. I understand the desire to warn people about him, but its honestly not worth arguing with him or anyone else about what he does. If he bricks someones phone, thats on them. We all know the risks involved when it comes to modifying our phones.
Not saying you did something wrong, but in the long run you'll realize its just not worth the hassle to say anything at all, regardless the reason. He's not a dev and he's not going to give you an educated answer like a dev can anyways. Just continue to work on the amaze like you've been doing and let the s3 forum figure out on their own who he is...

I've also seen him in the htc one s, and man some of the stuff he says like he knows more stuff about s off but he can't say anything bc the ones working on it wouldn't like that, he got everyone all hyped up and on his good side and also managed to piss others off. I just laughed he still the same old

I would have dropped the ban hammer on you in a heartbeat, then I would have whacked you with an ugly stick.
But then again, that MIGHT be why I'm not a mod.
Since I am old, and you are young, and us old people are supposed to say things full of wisdom and $h**.. don't stoop to his level. Plus, you can't argue with someone that may have less IQ than the number of cheerios on your spoon in the morning.
Just sayin'.
There was a saying I heard not too long ago it goes something like:
"You can't argue with an idiot, they'll drag you down to their level and beat you with experience"
Don't let other people stop you from the great work you're doing here Eclipze. We all appreciate it very much.
Oh and to Silent, every time I have a question to something and do a search you are usually the one who posted the answer. Thanks man!

Well, just to clarify somethng Eclipse...A Mod can not ban anyone. Only Senior Mods have the power to ban you. With that said, a ban is an absolute last resort, unless it involves spamming, pirating, or another serious offense. If you were threatened with a ban for that, you could complin about that Mod. We as Mods also have a code to follow. Being heavy handed, or aggressive is frowned upon. You should have received a friendly PM, politely asking you to refrain from that. I've never had a problem with you, and I think it was overkill. Not how I would ha r handled it.

I had no idea he was here too. We had the "pleasure" of having him on the sidekick forums and youre right, all his **** was half-baked and yet he got to walk around like he owned the place. He definitely has a mod in his pocket, he got all kinds of people leaving the sk forums and he single handedly killed the device. The one or two real devs there bailed cause they got tired of his talking down to other people acting like he was gods gift to developing.
It makes me kind of angry that he has/is poisoning so many forums with his nonsense.
