UPDATE: IF YOU HAVE AN EVO 3D, AND YOU ARE AN XDA MEMBER WONDERING WHERE ALL THE INFORMATION FOR THE FR3EVO ROOTING PROCESS IS,.....
well,
.
.
.its all over in the HTC Sensation forum,
because one of the moderators here developed a God complex.
(F#Ck THAT...)
TO ALL THE MODERATORS, BUT REALLY TO THE ONE(S) IT PERTAINS TO:
I don't care how big your Android/Linux/C++/Java/thanksmeter/Postcount di*k is, or that you have been knighted a moderator.
The most important part of Xda are the FORUMS. That where we are now, in a FORUM...(Look it up, Copypasta the definition, or build a theme around it if that's your specialty), but please don't tell an entire thread to silence itself again. It's frustrating, it's a bit humiliating, and now it's publicly embarrassing. Please don't allow this kind of abuse of power to happen again. See what can happen? Now the party has started, and the limo made the first trip without us.... So now we have to stand in line behind the folks in the Sensation Forum, and of course behind therootofallEvo site as well.
I'm a bit frustrated, and ranting, so I'll quit now.
I don't know a whole lot about Everything.
And to be sure, I definitely have lot to learn
But I know one thing:
@agraben was completely justified in taking the teamwin ball and going elsewhere first after his treatment on the forum at XDA.
I'll bet he laughed himself to sleep tonight.
Ban me, Shman me....It's whatevs now.
This needed to be said.

Every time I think about the way he "moderated" the dev section a small puppy dies!

Just saw that he closed the thread because 'there was no development' going on...what a complete douche. Thanks a lot for screwing the rest of us over like that "stericson"
Please take away his mod rights and give them to someone that actually has a functioning brain.
So am I the only one that thinks his is doing a good job? He locked if because it isn't development. He ask the op to msg him as soon as it was ready to became a development thread. Every day 10 people starts new threads in development section, that don't belong there. He has finally started to do something about it, and all the n00bs whine...

that is fing pathetic that we'd have to do that thanks to a mod, i used to be a longtime highly respected supermod on the largest honda civic site (strictly civic) before moving away from that scene, never once had i treated any of my peers which such child like behavior, especially in a manor to actually have pushed a person we greatly need in our section away to somewhere else to share the knowledge we need here, for god sake we need teamwin in this section, and we need the mod's to be able to recognize when he's over stepping his boundries, maybe he's new at this, but that is no excuse to push member's away that we need.

i think he does a good job ridding the stupid posts and questions, but he's gotten overzealous as of late. i hate reading reading 20 pages of "downloading now!!!" or "woohooo!!!'s" but that's just the nature of people wanting to express their excitement.
but to lock a dev thread and keep the dev out until the mod is available to unlock it is going too far. where was stericson at 1:25 AM today when agrabren made an update in the sensation thread?
While I don't agree on everything that was done, the dev forum was a mess. Everyone was crying for mods to intervene and when it happens everyone complains. You never start a coming soon thread on xda. You only start one when you material is ready.
Sent from 3D land
I think stericson was more than fair. Every other post was a question that had been asked AT LEAST 5 time in the last couple dozen pages. Most of the remaining posts were back-slapping, high-fiving, HTC-hating, BS-ing miscellaneous ramblings. Finding real information from real DEVELOPERS was frustrating and time consuming.
Stericson warned people nicely to calm down and stop posting non-development stuff, but it only helped briefly. Sub-forums exist for a reason and those kinds of posts don't belong in development. The dude was doing what he was supposed to.
And popping back and forth between a couple of forums is no big deal. Hell, I usually have 3 or 4 open at any given time anyway. Don't we all? I think folks are over reacting to this and we should just get back to playing with our new toys.
He was out of line period. To lock a thread until they pm him is quite frankly bull ****.
It's a wonder why devs are creating teams and some moving on.
One thing, where is he now? He can ban and rant to all the dev threads but don't say anything the past day+. I hope he did get booted. Now the 3D owners need to go to the sensation threads. It's a crock and makes me think a lot of xda right now.
Where are the admins explaining the actions? Don't know man, its getting way way too out of hand. If the op asked to close its one thing but to close it with no other authority but your own is just plain bs.
Come back teamwin. We got your back and will assist all the way.

I think he had great intentions and started off moderating the mess very well, but when it came to locking the threads I think he went a bit too far.
I dunno if thats what caused the stuff to get posted elsewhere instead but if it is, its very sad it came to that.
Also dont think it was right to kick the Sensation guys out b/c they were actually helping us when they came and were describing what worked and didn't for them.
Ya, a lot of the devs in the Samsung Vibrant forums had moved on at one point. I believe 2 or 3 of them, for a multitude of reasons. Seems like we're gonna have the same situation here :\

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.

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.
Yeah, I'm about to get flamed, sorry about it. After the treatment shown recently to developers and other established and respected XDA members, as well as the closing of GOOD threads, anybody else on board for a 100 post requirement for privileges to post or reply in all development forums?
Sent from my PG86100 using Tapatalk
NO. I've already had reason to post in the Dev forum, and have not been able to due to not enough posts. IMO, it's pretty dumb.
I have no idea what you're talking about re: the treatment stated, however.
It'll just cause more bs in the general and less feedback to devs for their work too. Most of threads that get locked in there are not because of ppl that have low post counts. It's typically the ones with the higher counts that will do it...

People... Think....
For one second get in the shoes of a moderator. In a site like xda which has far drifted from its original intents, everyone needs to understand that with the level of access people have today to technology and the lack of respect and good maners, it makes it very complicated to manage a site like this.
The job the moderators has is a tough one because they have to be the un-friendly people most of the time.
I don't personally agree with the 100 post for dev forum, but I do understand where they are coming from with this. Think for a second the amount of low level educated people and trolls that traffic this place? People that just like to follow their impulse and not the rules?
It's easy for us whom follow the rules to see it as a pain, but consider what had to happen in order for it to get to this place?
Let's give credits to the mods, their trying to maintain order in a city of chaos.

The 10 post thing is good for the noobs. So they don't put a question in the wrong section like a question about cases in the Dev section.
Nothing is wrong with it takes some time and reading but folks get the hang of it soon.
I wouldn't mind the 100 post thing, but not for ANY post, just specifically for creating new threads in that section.

Some people are edgy about it because there is a cloud of uncertainty about whether you can discuss it or post the link to his forum without getting warned by a moderator. I'm on both forums and regardless of which one you're on, it's been agreed by all that it's for the best to leave the matter alone. Read through his post history here if you want to try piecing together the puzzle yourself.

Geez people. The major developer for the amaze packs up, yanks all his roms and pulls his threads and leaves and everyone is supposed to just pretend nothing happened? You can claim it's none of our business all you want but people certainly have the right to be curious and ask questions. Want to end all the questions and speculation?

I googled xboarder56 and right there on the first page you can find where he is. Deal with the question and search yourself. 1st rule of xda in case you couldn't find that also
Their not gone. Google the name of the ROM u want and xboarder56 and I'm sure u will find it. The bottom line is mrmako is right. If you don't know, then it didn't concern you and was none of your biz to begin with. His work is still obtainable. XDA is not only site to find hacks and roms etc. Let's just leave it at that and if you can't find his ROMs then go back to stock. It's not xboarders responsibility to service anybody, nor is it any devs responsibility. They create work that they decide to share with us. That's where it ends. They don't even have to share. So use what you can find. Google usually has the answers.
I miss Binary. He would have had this thread closed and locked already for it is completely unproductive. Since Binary retired from xda this forum has been mad with duplicate threads, noob issues, and a lawless feel. Where is Whiskey to shut this down?
PS just because people have the right to be curious and ask doesn't mean people have the right to know. So exercise your right to be curious and keep wondering. But its not anybody's responsibility to inform the masses of anything. Anything else that you can't find is drama unrelated to development, and if you want a soap opera, you should watch USA Network, they know drama.

This is the General section where questions are supposed to be asked and answered. Any thread that answers questions that many members have is productive. The only reason THIS thread is unproductive is the refusal to answer a question which is on MANY members' minds.

If that's what's on peoples minds, then they should get a new life. I know most of the story and personally its not that entertaining nor is it any of our business. If people want to know, then they can do the digging and be nosey on their own. It's nobodys place to restir a pot not worth stirring. It's counterproductive. Since you're such a tenured vet, you of all people should no better. Why does it matter where he is? If his work can be found elsewhere, what is the point of this thread. Threads like this are what started his move to begin with. Noobish ass questions with the answers right in front of peoples faces. Again, Law and Order is a personal favorite of mine, Criminal Intent and SVU.. if you want good drama, I recommended people start there
Not to mention this thread is 2 pages long, yet you are 1 out of 4 people who have showed interest in wondering where X is. The rest of the comments, the people already know or don't care. 4 people maybe consists on a lot to you, but I hardly would say the same

but this IS our point bro. the op didnt post a thread asking where x was or where he could find his work, he asked "what happened" as to imply "why" x was gone and not really IF he was gone. its kind of like when people get flamed for not searching first for answers to questions like "guys, how do i flash a rom?" or "amaze or s2?", except this is deeper and shouldnt be a topic to clog up our forum. the man left, hes not coming back, no need to continue to ask why or where he went.
on a side note marley, i DO understand your point, i just dont agree with it. i guess this is what happens when people have a $600 phone with little to no dev community LOL. lets just move forward and pray we get some new talent in here!

but this IS our point bro. the op didnt post a thread asking where x was or where he could find his work, he asked "what happened" as to imply "why" x was gone and not really IF he was gone. its kind of like when people get flamed for not searching first for answers to questions like "guys, how do i flash a rom?" or "amaze or s2?", except this is deeper and shouldnt be a topic to clog up our forum. the man left, hes not coming back, no need to continue to ask why or where he went.

Maybe we can reach other devs from other phones, like CoreDroid, who are able to successfully port their work to our device. Like what NRGZ did. I think the main reasons for little to no development are: a) amaze is a US phone and not a world phone; and b) s=on. So if we can get this device in other devs hands, it may help. Like the Revolutionary donation we had going. Or I guess we can be happy with what we have and wait for nrgz 3.5 and xboarders ics.

waste of space
childish
Seems a bit childish when they decide to ban a dev they just close their threads. His stock w goodies had 899 posts so there must me plenty of members using that Rom. Members that visit this site. Without members and visitors they wouldn't be generating all the ad revenue.
Without the devs and development does xda have "anything" to attract visitors?
On the comment "xda has scared off more developement than it has gained",+1 couldnt agree more. seems to be alot of the bro deal buddie buddie s#!t going on and it kinda makes things suck. Especially for devs like flex360. I seen in a post title "if your a user just looking for a cool rom go away" well as a user ill remember that crap. And wont use it even when it is released, or any of the other crap he puts out. XDA is supposed to be about shareing knowledge and helping others obtain it. And Shareing what you have developed with the community. Not for the "this is mine and you cant have it" frame of mind. Seems that things have gotten turned around somehow at xda, and the ones who deserve to be reprimanded are being rewarded, and the ones like flex360 and others i wont mention who deserve recognition or reward are being punished. Whos next, OMJ or bigdaddy for helping and contributing too much.(just a couple names off the top who have helped me greatly in the past along with many others) At any rate, we dont know what happend with flex and maybe never will, as long as he knows theres a great many of us who are bebind him 100% and will support him in any way we can for his contributions to us. We're here for ya flex. :endrant:

If u read the sense 5 thread, you can see what happened, (690ish post) flex ported something to sense 5, and shared it, and didn't give credit to original mod, until a little while later. Not really sure why they locked his rom post as people may still have discussions regarding the rom.

Also seemed like all was cool with everyone afterwards so that can't be the reason. They all made up and laughed it off.

Flex just tweeted banned until may 29,
The thing I want to know why is he banned? How can they close a thread with 700k+ views? That's like lost ad revenue to them if those users say f it to xda, and if it was Over a little incident that got resolved that is unfair in all ways possible, but oh well we are user's and no one gives a @#$? About us.

There's more to it then you or I or anyone can speculate. Its between flex and the mods, he more then likely understands it and hes not complaining...if you have questions, contact a mod, if you value flex privacy, then leave it alone, let this be handled by flex, the site admins and the mods.

Firstly hi.
Secondly, I'm not the mod who banned flex however I can speak to why the thread was closed. It was closed due to him not being able to support it while he is banned. Same thing happened the last time he was banned.
To the scaring off developers, give me a break. I work the website as a whole and there isn't a mass exodus of great devs. If people don't abide by the rules dev or no dev they meet with consequences. Everything is taken into account before bans happen user history post history.
As for the dev thread mentioned with the title saying users don't come. I changed that thread title because users were getting upset at devs getting upset at users posting in it. The devs aren't keeping it to themselves, it's a development thread. Purely not meant for users. Like someone said this XDA developers. It's in the original dev section, yet users who have nothing to so with the project despite being told otherwise continued to post. It was stated that the sense 5 port wasn't ready for mass consumption when it is you will see a bunch of stuff about it.
Now everyone go on about your day and spend time with your family. Put your phone down for a while, step away from your keyboard.
Thanks.
