Moderators have every right to do it,link for download lead to artas site which leads us to adfly links..Any website with that purpose is forbidden on XDA...XDA is meant to be open and free!

But the point is,we can only donate to him if we want,but he cant earn on our clicks, I dont mind waiting too,but rules are rules and we must respect them.

Maybe if he promises to add direct links mods will re-open it?

If he puts new links,then yes,mods will unlock all hes threads.

I understand that he violated the rules of XDA and which is offensive too. I and many other people are here for development and we live for it. I understand that the moderator has been true to the rules but I request if you could see from the developers point of view too.
Earning through clicks isn't fair according to the rules and if that's entertained this site will be become a portal for earning. But if the moderator could just post a final warning to the developer that would do the needful. I'm pretty sure he would post direct links and resume back the development.
I hope you understand us and our concern towards development.

And do you have personal knowledge that the mods didn't contact him via PM, as that is the method that would be used, issuing warnings prior to locking his thread? Everyone is given a chance or chances to remedy their situation before action is taken.

Well, I didn't mean that he wasn't given warnings or maybe he was given warnings.I understand the mods might have talked to him and issued warnings. I even understand that that he disrespected the mods and continued to break the "Rule no. 13" of the forum. But I,supporting the development platform would just prefer to finish the issue asap with some proper understanding between the mod and developer. I wasn't offending and assuming anything.

What happen to those guys? They saved my life about a year ago. They have to have something up there sleeve for this one. It only took me a few minutes to get fully rooted and have clockwork mod recovery. Good things come to those who wait? I'm tired of waiting. So what do I do? Keep waiting until one of you genius devs to figure it out.

JFYI this is the dev section, this post belongs in QA or General. Keep in mind for the future because people will give you hell about it.
Why would you create a new thread in the DEVELOPMENT section? Mods please move to GENERAL or delete all together.
FYI OP: There are different sections for a reason.

I vote delete. The OP is clearly trolling.
any thread title with 5 question marks should be instantly deleted and op banned
OP obviously isn't in the loop.
AHHHH!!! Unrevoked? Really? You create a thread in the dev section to ask a question and if that wasn't bad enough you ask about Unrevoked! Get outta here with that sh*t...its gonna be a good long while before you get your phone rooted! lmao

For all we know they may be working on a root method but with the lack of success of Gingerbreak and other one-click root methods I would guess that they, like many others, are having a hard time finding a useable exploit...
We are certainly working on something and will post if and when it's ready.

Its more fun to pick on people, especially newcomers than to actually help them, or at least it seems that way.
Submitting items in appropriate sections are a damned good thing.....but do people actually give a ratsass about catching "hell" or a threat of getting "flamed" on a freakin' forum?!

Agreed, takes 10 posts to post in dev section. His 11th post is this crap!
I've been a member here for a long time, but do not speak much as most questions I would have about any of my devices have clearly been discussed.
I also understand where new members would not know much about whats going on at times, but its nothing more than a simple search. I (and all other members new/old) have to search like everyone else. Its really not hard.
Its also believed with the great devs that are doing what they can (and I THANK YOU for that) to get root available for our device. I'm SURE they will have something up (as in a new thread) that they have achieved what we have been waiting for. Its going to happen. Be appreciative that we even have devs that are making the time to find out all that they can. Without them, we'd be in a world of hurt.
Just my .18 cents.
You 'section police' people are fkn pathetic.
Seriously hate coming to this forum now.
"I also understand where new members would not know much about whats going on at times, but its nothing more than a simple search. I (and all other members new/old) have to search like everyone else. Its really not hard."
Of course. No one argues with that.
Its how they're told that.
Members with 5000 posts don't have liscence to be a**holes. They're no more 'valuable' than someone with 1 in terms of basic civility.
And after 1301 posts...this is your offering?! Lol?
I'll take his 11th!

Think of "development" like a business...professionalism is important in business, no? There is a job that is being done here.
If you are looking for the tavern take it to General, if you are looking for the visitors assistance center take it to Q&A. This is all spelled out in the rules. If you have no "developing" to contribute to the "development" please take it elsewhere.
Posting non-development related posts is like showing up drunk to work, and your post is like an even drunker guy proclaiming how BS the professionalism is at said business.
I'll shut up now, as this is unrelated to development.
Hi Moderator,
Don't take me otherwise. While I am surfing this forum, I can see hell lots of stupid things floating around. Some Rom threads are filing with stupid personal arguments. Lots of threads need to be close as thread's purpose has resolved. If you want I can point it out for you. we know you are doing your job and believe me you are good at it. What I request you is do some initiative to avoid these silly stuffs.
Senior Members,
it's kinda hard to maintain a forum for anyone. As our device a budget phone yet powerful, so we are having hell lots of user and their queries. So
Urge you please give some suggestions so that we can avoid spaming, can also be beneficial for new and senior members.
Aside to new users,
Guys keep your queries thread specific.
Thank you

+1 man. There should be an all in one frequent asked question sticky thread. Most users of the O1 are first time rooters so I don't blame them as much because I had my share of questions.

If the devs could moderate at least their own threads, it would be a different story altogether. Those ROM/kernel threads could be shrinked 80% in size and only useful stuff left.
(Still would not solve the useless junk elsewhere but one could ignore it.)
Dear moderator, could you kindly go through the major development threads (current ROMs, franco kernel) and wipe all the bloody noise outta there.
I will not use a report post function because about every second post is off-topic n00b crap that plain does not belong there, so your PM inbox would get full soon. Not to mention that apparently noone cares about the crippled "report post" function that was discussed in xda-general.
This forum is becoming seriously harmed by useless noise. Some action, please!!!

Pm unanswered..... I don't mind it being closed if that what it takes to get a response from someone that is supposed to be watching this forum.....
As for being banned...why? I'm here just like everyone else trying it sift thru this mess... I wasn't aware asking for help was a forum offence? If it makes you feel better I will reword the title....
And what exactly is the problem that just made you get awfully close to a ban? If you have a problem with anything, report it and we will take a look as soon as one of us catches wind of it. Insulting the staff will only piss us off and you will end up either with an infraction or a ban.

I have spoken to him/her about this, and he said to PM him/her. His/her name is jerdog. Oh and I am guessing he/she has other forums to worry about too. So, this is the biggest developer community made forum. So he/she might be busy taking care of other problems. Give him/her some time and he/she will get what needs to be done here done.

I thought of reposting this so that members in this forum may know how to apply as a Recognized Contributor. This is just a repost and some minor modification of what s.d.oconnor posted over at the General Forum
So over on the Recognized Contributors forum, it has become clear that most members of XDA don't know that you can apply for the title of Recognized Contributor (RC).
What is a Recognized Contributor?
Recognized Contributor is a role intended for members who produce some of the best original and helpful guides for users, as well as helping other users who have problems, in a friendly manner. Recognized Contributors will get a custom user title and the faster ad-free XDA template, as well as access to developer tools currently being created. Any Senior Moderator on XDA can add Recognized Contributors, should you feel deserving of this title.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
How can i apply?
Well like it says in the text above, you can apply for this title by sending a PM to any Senior Moderator (list of Senior Mods below).
Best way on how to apply through Private Message (PM)
When you are writing you application to a S-Mod you will need to include:
* A polite hello
* Your username with a link to your username, they will want to check your history.
* Why you think you you would make a good RC, including a little about your time on XDA.
* Links to your work including Guides, Ref, Roms, Projects, Apps E.T.C
*A thank you for their time and good bye (Manners are free)
Note:
Please note only apply once to one S-Mod, do not send 3 aplications to 3 diffrent S-Mods. Also be patient, the S-Mods are very busy people and have other work on XDA and in personal life.
Senior Moderators List
You can find the Senior Mods HERE
If you do get accepted as a RC then please come and visit the RC's forum and help contribute to our work and cause to make XDA a better place. If you have any questions then please ask, i will or other RC's will help in anyway we can.
Good Luck with your application
P.S Don't forget to join our group made by s.d.oconnor if you get accepted.

In Forum rules:
8. Donations.
We appreciate all donations to XDA-Developers.com as it helps to keep our forum online and well maintained. As a user, you're allowed to ask for donations in your signature as a thank you for your hard work, however donations up front are not allowed. This forum is about sharing and not about getting paid to do something... that is what your job is for.
That is exactly what that bounty was...money to get a ROM built. However there is nothing stopping everyone from simply using the developer's DONATE button.

This ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Imagine...we have 5,340,000 members, in there are 10's of thousands of ROM developers, now imagine every forum flooded with members trying to get their favorite developer to buy the same device they just purchased with a bounty thread. Think big picture. Now if it was for a device with a locked bootloader for a developer known to be able to crack bootloaders...that is a significant development desired goal that would benefit all users of that device and break open development.
I hope this explains XDA's policy a little better and thank you for understanding.
