First of all, allow me to make a compliment: you're a well-behaved crowd, and it's a pleasure hosting this forum. We're only asking you the above because although we feel we can deal with the extra noise generated by anonymous users, we want to know how others feel about it.
I the mean time, we hope everyone is OK with us deleting:
posts where users start swearing at one-another for no apparent reason.
duplicates. Please assume lots of people read almost everything that is posted, so don't post twice. If you're afraid people will miss your post because it's 'only' a reply, then post a new topic (if you must).
'guest' posts which obviously call for others to contact the poster (haven't deleted any of these yet...). If people want to be reacheable, then they should get an account. 'Reply on this forum to get in touch with me' is just too silly.
Warez, serialz, etz...
Almost forgot: we will also delete any posts asking for copies of commercial software or serial numbers, as well as posts from people offering them.
As said in previous discussions: we do not have any major moral objections, but mostly just practical ones: warez trading in forums like this tends to get rather big rather quickly, and often gets in the way of more content-focused discussion.
We recommend news://alt.binaries.warez.pocketpc for all your warez-trading needs.
don't let guests register
I tend to register only after a site has proven it's value.
Guests are not annoying on the premis that there is some form of crowd control which is the case here. I agree about the warez trading but don't think the real risk is in the occasional user/guest trying to save a few bucks. Those can be handled. The real 'risk' for boards like this are the commercial traders, those should be banned fiercly.
Robert
a real requirement
hmmmm, reading back my message
i could use a spellchecker on this board!!!
I reckon registration gives an air of security to posters, but can only go a small way towards keeping out unwelcome posts such as flames and warez.
Wouldn't it be great if all the energy that went in to hacking, blagging and flaming was diverted into constructive use?
Dream on.

Hey... We're hacking...
Sorry. I reverted to the derogatory usage of the word.
Must remember my audience. :wink:
I've twice ended up posting as a guest after I registered because I forgot to enter my username. Though this time it has automatically recognised me, other times it hasn't for some reason.
I agree

I have done similar. Mainly due to using so many different computers. Home, work, friends etc. So my suggestion is to make it clearer when you're not logged in.
Perhaps when you write a message just "gently" ask to register before posting. But not insist.
After all for those people intent on destruction, all that they have to do is register each time they come back. A deterent but simple to get around..
IM+ Pro All-in-One Messenger FREE in Amazon APP store today. I like it so far, it consolidates all your Instant Messaging utilities (i.e. yahoo, facebook, aim, microsoft, skype, etc) In one app!
Go check it out!
Close Please
Looks at the permission set for this app.
Why does the app need to pull my system log files?

Depends on the app. If you're against privacy breach and data collection, don't touch any of the new media.
However there are far more serious permissions I'd worry about first.
Log reading is mostly used for fc and crashing apps. Can be turned off often.

Meaning it reads the log data to report to the creator if it is encountering errors such as a FC due to whatever the reason maybe..

We already have a thread for the Amazon FAotD. Didnt you see it before you posted? Anyways it is updated everyday with the new free app to reduce clutter aka your thread.
I get the point you are making but the "Amazon FAotD" thread is a newly created thread (the 29th of sep. I believe)... I have searched in the past (just like I always do before I make a post) and I never saw anything like this.. I would never have thought to search FAotD... That is not something that would come to just anyone's mind.. oh and searching amazon free apps will not turn up any solid results on this particular thread you are referring too...
Again, like in the message I sent you Wired, sorry for the extra thread! but you do not have to be sarcastic about it when "you" made a thread about cut the rope (sep. 28th, 9:42am) the same day after another user created a thread about cut the rope (sep. 28th, 8:58am)? yes, I searched it....

and just because it is updated everyday (which I doubt it is after reviewing the thread) it will not show up as a "new" thread unless someone makes a post in it.. just saying
The thread is updated every day I have seen. I did a search of this forum for Cut the Rope and I did not start a thread on this forum. I did not post a duplicate here. I do agree the Amazon FAotD thread on this forum should be stuck.

i personally update the thread at 3AM most days (eastern time, midnight on Amazon's clock)
i've missed out on doing it for ONE DAY. i always make a post after updating it. the ONE DAY i missed out on updating it was because i worked a 12 hour shift, got off work and got five hours of sleep before going back into work (for another 8 hour shift) to open the next morning.
just so ya know.

Since this thread has already gone down hill and will be hopefully closed (I, contacted the mod about closing/deleting it) might as well entertain the thoughts...
There was no need to explain yourself, yes I posted "I doubt it is" comment but since you do update it "regularly" then that's good! No argument here..
My point was that this kid rather be sarcastic and a smart ars then helpful and informative in a respectful manner (or just report it to the moderator, no need to comment on the thread and bump it up, DOH!). It's like I posted this in the Dev section or something. Your thread is not easy to find (yes I searched to see if someone posted IM+ Pro... NOTHING came up) as most including myself have probably searched "Amazon free apps" not amazon FAotD which would cause other forums to pop up and not yours where a free app is posted "regularly"..
Even though Wired posted in a different section, the posting rules clearly state the following (and no it doesn't say except if you go to a different section is it OK);
Read and search before posting a new thread - redundant threads will be closed.
Reply to existing threads before starting a new thread - redundant threads will be closed.
Thinking of posting a new thread???
Use the search button on the top bar between "New Posts" and "Quick Links"
If any mod, including myself, continue to find new threads about topics that have threads already existing.
The thread will be locked with no notice and/or up to a temp BAN!!.

Well I already bookmarked your thread earlier and I appreciate it. Your first post did sound like you were defensive because of my comment. Sorry about that. All I said to you was that you didn't have to explain yourself and that it's good that you update it regularly. That's all that was for you (I re-read what I said and it does not sound like I was being defensive towards you). The rest was between me and Wired.

he probably just misread your Burn the Rope thread?
Agreed. Just like he couldnt see the other IM+ thread before he posted his, not that he spent time looking. So now hes probably gonna type three paragraphs on why he thought the words "burn" and "cut" could mean the same thing. Time for glasses.
Thread closed at poster's request.
I am a new member and every time i post something or respond to something, i have to go thru the captcha... typing is a bit of a challenge for me so getting those right is very challenging... I joined so that I could respond to someone in the developers thread, but i can't do that until i have 10 posts and then i find out that i can only post every 5 minutes since I am new. I also cannot send a PM which is what i tried to do as well.... will there always be captchas when i am posting or will they go away after 10 posts?
this is mostly just filling time so i can post again and get up to 10!
thanks...
5t
The captchas are only temporary, they will go away along with other restrictions A friendly tip though, don't post just to fill up the 10 posts because I have seen some people get their post count reset. It's super easy to legitimately get 10 posts.
Browse the Q&A forums and help out with what you can, recommend accessories in said forum. Also check out the main Android forums and if all else fails there is always then off topic forums and we even have an off topic thread in general.
Welcome and I hope to see you around

I like how he blatantly disregarded the fact that you're not supposed to spam post to get to 10...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=30644614&postcount=911
Good job.
I don't understand why once I am confirmed as member, I can't post anywhere... all of my thanks posts were genuine, those were things that i didn't know before and found helpful. I was legitimately trying to help someone in a developer forum because I had had the same issue when rooting, and it wouldn't let me send him a pm either until after those 10 so i was trying to be helpful here. how much longer does it take to be able to post in the development forums?

It's mostly to minimize spam. It seems to work pretty well, so I'd say it's a small price to pay to have a better community.
yea i feel where your comin from but it really helps cut down on the spam allso helps keep some people away you dont no how many time a tread can be ruin by some person with drama and off topic debates lol
Xda needs to have some border patrol.. if your here for the right reasons you will be able to post anywhere b4 long
If you only knew the amount of spam we got on here by ppls accounts....lol
Not hard to fire off 10 posts if you look for the right section to post in....locking this one though since it doesn't pertain to the device here....

I can understand you pain brother but why post multiple threads for same thing again and again , what good it can do in here (XDA) btw good luck on getting a refund from flipkart
That's like 2nd post in last 6 hours from you, while your criticism of the product based on your experience may have valid reasons, please be mindful that such posts create negativity that is uncalled for. You have twitter/facebook to reach out to Flipkart and Poco and you will get enough support (if there are others with same issue). Brining them to this forum, and repeatedly is creating nothing but a bad vibe.
Kindly stop responding to this guy. Obviously a troll on a mission.
People have got refund(through FK) for Poco phone and even replacement(through MI). Seems like Flipkart fault here.Just talk to their senior. Since this is second time you are posting with ridiculous headlines, it seems like you are spamming here.Or maybe you are some OnePlus fan.
If you are having issues with Flipkart support.tag them on facebook, google for the email address of CEO of Flipkart, and other high ranking officials and send them an email.

totally agree
Thread closed at OP request
Dear ROG2 followers,
I'm Damaris, a senior designer from a China company with its own factory.
You may think the headline of this post is a bit exaggerated at first sight. Absolutely, you are right.
As you may agree, the user base of ROG phone is much smaller compared with those popular ones such as iPhone and Huawei. That's why few companies are willing to invest resources in it out of worry about poor ROI. As a gaming fan, i persuaded my boss to make a metal bumper case for it, which has recorded about 2,000 orders as of today. It's far below my expected goal (about 5,000 pcs).
Under such situation, i still pulled up socks to request my boss to initiate the TPU case in response to your strong suggestions from this forum and other sources. Naturally, my boss turned down my request firmly. Once again, i collected and presented all your voice about a TPU case, and he finally approved my request based on an earn-out agreement between him and me.
To enable the TPU case to go to market successfully, i am hungry for your valuable suggestions sincerely from June 30 to August 5 (Beijing Time). You can share your ideas here, write to my email "[email protected]". The design is scheduled to be finalized on August 6, and to be released on August 12.
By the way, the design will be built on our TPU case for Xiaomi Black Shark (see Youtube link for details: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dx-fpDNJH4U). It consists of a TPU frame and PC back.
