Comments, Concerns, Suggestions?

I am one of the new moderators of this forum and i would like to start off with a thread that talks about what changes you would like to see in this forum. Give me any threads that you might think need to be sticky'd and any other organization you'd like to see. I and another moderator, which will not be named yet, will discuss the best way to roll this out for everyone.
i dont have any suggestions... just would like to congratulate you. so, congrats pudgedaddy
Welcome Aboard, Pudgedaddy & Congratulations.
I am also the new moderator of the Excalibur and Smartphone forums. Please drop by and post your comments, concerns and suggestions.This is a Great Start to the forums. Please keep this thread clean and free from any redundant questions. Only post when there is a need to be.If you would like to see something happen, let me and pudgedaddy know. We will discuss and come to a conclusion to see if your request should be fulfilled.As a start, I would also like everyone to know to keep WAREZ out of Excalibur & Smartphone threads. Any user that asks for WAREZ will be warned and eventually banned if the question arises again.
In the near future, Me & Pudgedaddy will compile information to be stickied for your benefit. Any requests for sticky's will be looked into and only sticky's that deserve to be stickied will be stickied.
Thanks for your co-operation and once again, Great job Pudgedaddy.
Cheers!
Congrat!
YAY !!!!!!!! Moderator for Excalibur!!! FINALLY
First, lets do some stickys haha
1) Wiki
2) Rules & FAQ for the forum
3) Most useful threads for
....
Yes
Oh Thank you Pudge & Luky for offering your services. Thank You XDA for answering the call. Have a wonderful day you already made mine!
Thank goodness!
Maybe this will lead to a reduction in redundant questions by people who do not even bother to search this huge forum and its wealth of knowledge, if that is even possible. I think the most pertinent topics should indeed be stickied, along with deletion or condensation of old threads that are either not relevant, duplicated, or never received replies. Trim the fat, ya know? Thanks for committing your time and effort to make this forum as productive as possible!
Finally! Congrats, guys. Be good public servants.
I would definitely add a sticky to the wiki, but I'd also suggest you two be careful when sticky-ing things. If there are too many stickies, it ends up being the same situation we have now.
Cleaning up the posts we have now is more important than stickies.

That's what I got for now.
Cheers.
I just fixed a problem that I created a thread for. I would like to know how to change the thread title to include, "solved", in the title. This way everyone would know that the problem has been fixed. Sorry, if this is already possible. I cannot figure out how to do it. Thanks, and if you want update my sorry, not a noob thread, if you want, to say solved in the title. My last post explains everything. Later.
My bad...
When I made my post, Mikey wasn't a Moderator yet. Congrats goes out to Mikey as well. Here, here!

I was contemplating on closing it out but don't close it because if we do close it, then people who need help on the same topic could have issues that outerdepth didn't have. If you think closing it could help, then please proceed mikey.
Mikey & Pudgedaddy - Stickies need to be cleaned up i.e. every unrelated post should be deleted in my opinion. We shall split up stickies when I get a chance to talk to you guys then work on making this place much more organized as well as make it easy for newbies to get the information they need.Please comment.
Guys, I understand there are a lot of stickies at the moment. Everything will be re-organized, edited and finalized hopefully by the end of this weekend so there's only "threads" that absolutely need to be stickied.

You guys rock!!!!!

You guys are the best!!! Without you I would be unaware of what cell phones can actually do. After a couple years of being a silent member I have decided to speak up and thank all of you.
I'm still a noob when it comes to this stuff (although I'm learning C++ right now) but every question I have you guys already have the answer and it's already old news to you guys.
Once again hat's off to you all and I thank you for the past and future help that this site has given me.
Welcome to forums
Read, Search, Respect and Enjoy!
Enjoy the great xda forum...read, flash & have fun!
I fully agree!

Introducing Forum Specific Mod

Hello, I'm reinbeau, and I am honored to have been appointed Forum Moderator for the Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking subforum. I'm here to help you and I expect the same from all of you. If you have any questions or concerns, please let me know!
I've been on xda-developers for over a year now, mostly visiting the Captivate forums and supporting where I can with the knowledge I've gathered on this great site. I've learned a lot here, hopefully I can share some of that knowledge - and learn more!
If you have any issues you need help with, please feel free to contact me through PM, or report the post by using the "!" button in the post.
Also, I will be doing some forum maintenance (combining threads regarding the same topics, moving threads or posts to proper sections and closing off-topic threads) to make it easier to find information here.

I am new to the forum world but my husband is an expert. I have a question that I have been searching google and every other search engine before I posted this. My husband and I have the same phone (bought at the same time) and it is a mytouch 3G 3.5mm Jack. He received the froyo 2.2.1 Android update for his phone a couple of days ago. I have yet to receive mine and I wanted to know if there is any way for me to manually update mine so I don't have to wait for the OTA update?
Thanks for the help and letting me join this forum,
Ashley

Hey guys....glad to be part of this forum....xda, u guys are the best!
Hi, I've been nosing around here for a couple of months and thought I might need to admit to someone that I am addicted to this site and modding my Captivate. I really enjoy learning new things about my phone.
My Device: Samsung Captivate i897 running Dilli's Rom 5.6, Blue theme, and lovin every minute of it!

Thank you XDA

Just wanted to say Thank you to XDA just found this site while searching around and am so excited for the resources and information found here..
Thank you
Welcome
It's a fantastic resource isn't it! So many clever people here working on making our smart phones much better
True. I just semi-bricked my device and got it back up by nvflash.
great job xda, lots of street cred
Thank you so much
This forum is fantastic. I have managed to root my nook, cause my nook not to boot, fixed that, changed mods many times, again caused it not to boot, fixed it again and all while having a bunch of fun. Just so you know I am a 50 year old woman who knows very little except how to follow directions and this place is great.
I completely agree, these developers, moderators, and admins really make this site amazing! Thank you!
This certainly makes a nice change from the 'Screw you for...' and 'Why can't I post in...' threads!
As Scotsman said, there truly is an amazing array of information, resources and people here. It's absolutely mind-blowing
Take the time to have a look around, read a lot, check the marketplace etc. Even answer a few questions in Q&A for newer members if you can. All adds to the experience
Most of all, enjoy yourselves!
EDIT: Threw a few 'thanks' around to spread the love! Don't forget to do the same if you find someone's post, ROM or information useful! (this post doesn't count)
Forum is great but the restriction of 10 posts are driving me crazy!
I absolutely love xda-developers! I'm so happy a nerd friend of mine link me here a while back. Before this forum, I didn't even know cell phones were hackable! lol
XDA is always a good time! Have Fun & Happy Flashing!
Have read XDA for a while. Today finally I stand here and say "Hello" to you guys. Thank you all XDAERS! XDA is really a helpful and useful source. Cheers!
if it werent for xda...wow i dont even want to think about it
so yes...THANK YOU XDA
Thanx XDA
I managed to unbrick and unbrand my german vodafone htc trophy
Welcome to the club!
Always nice to say thank you, and I second everything already posted!
I've used XDA for ages (as the awesome source of info it is), but only just registered to post in the forum. Reckon I can annoy and help in equal measure!
Just posting so I can thank Dlev7. Thanks for wasting my time, XDA

You don't need 10 posts to press the Thanks button. Cluttering up dev threads with a "thanks" post is exactly the kind of thing devs don't like.
thank you xda, nice team, nice developers, nice roms, nice all
XDA great job on your forum I found everything I'm interested in LG GT540
okay i have to add to this post..
i must also thank xda. i have learned so much on this website and it has helped me focus on my future and what i want to do for the rest of my life.
this forum is home to so much information. this website is the bible of mobile hacking and development. and the bible is still being written. i hope the information stored here is never lost.
this really makes me think. im that guy that bought a tablet form 1992. and spent 3 months trying to find touchscreen drivers for windows 95. i had to turn to the internet archives to find it... but i found it!
10 years from now im going to find my moto droid. look back on the primitive technology that i once used every day. and remember the adventures i had with it here on this site.
i love you xda.

I want to maintain the Desire Index in Dev Section

Hi, all. I am visiting XDA forums for many months but i havent posted very much because every time i have found what i needed in other threads and posts. But now i want to take over the Desire Index in Dev Section over from 'fflash' as he wants someone to take over. I will gladly do that and promise to keep my fellow desire owners updated.
But as i dont have enough posts yet, and thanks to meet the criteria set by fflash, please help me out so that i can help you in return. Thanks
