We really need our own development forum. It could be set up for Viewsonic specifically, or Malata A1002(many versions of this rebranded) based devices.
These threads are getting absolutely too big to deal with:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=824804
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=827209
Agreed, this device is really taking off and there alot of good info, but the size of the threads are getting to big to find it easly. A section for the G-Tablet or at least Tegra 2 platform would help.
Even though I am currently hosting tegratabs.com, I agree. That site was set up as a stop-gap, in hopes that we will soon get an official spot here on XDA. I'll continue to host forums there while they are needed, but I have no problem with converting that site into a wiki or other informational resource once it is no longer needed for forums.

Absolutely agreed.

Yes, please!

I have always respected the work that is done on XDA and support (and donate) whenever I can...
Please continue by giving this device the respect it deserves by allowing more room.
Thanks in advance.

The current thread is getting VERY hard for new people to catch up. I have been reading since the first post and still spend 20 minutes or more catching up a few times a day.
I think someone said there are 30k of these coming to market this year. I know XDA was mainly for smartphones but tablets are coming up quick. So maybe a tablet section under the android section? 1800+ replies on a week old thread on a device that was poorly advertised (dual boot huh?) and poorly executed (tapncrap) is pretty amazing to me.
Either way thanks to xda for giving the geeky masochist/enthusiast in all of us a place to call home over the years.

This. Agreed. Thanks Nearly 2000 posts in 10 days is worthy.
Adding my two cents. If the Galaxy Tab gets one, so should we.
Agreed. A Tegra section would be great.

Hello fellow XDA users,
Do you think XDA developers needs a motto (slogan, quote, etc.)?
Leave your ideas here on this thread!
I go first! "Feel the Revelution"
xda-developers
"answering the same questions since early 2000"
or
"bricking noobs' phones since 2005"
or
"where you can never be happy with your device"
If it wasn't already a TV Show, I'd go for "Ready, Steady, Cook!"
How about a bricked phones counter instead of a slogan at the top of the page?

What is this on CM7's website?
On first glance looks like someone hijacked their website and troll'd around with that name.
Can anyone clear up what this is?

As one of the co-founders of TDRevolution, I can definitely verify THIS IS NOT A JOKE. Yesterday TDR purchased all IP, rights, and properties of CyanogenMod LLC. We will do our best to provide you guys with the same level of quality and support that Cyanogen has in the past. We released our first nightly today using our buildbots...nothing has changed for now but we plan on bringing you guys the best distro out there.

Yeah... I'm not really buyin it.
EDIT: Oh yeah, and a simple WHOIS lookup shows no recent domain registration transfers

Who needs to transfer the domain when you already own the server. check that IP son...we already own it.
Lol, I'm still not buying into it.

Well I just joined and can not contribute to any of the conversations I would like to contribute to because I do not have 10 posts yet so I guess you can count me as unsatisfied at the moment.. I can't even comment on stuff in the marketplace? So I'm forced to contribute BS to conversations I don't care about to get 10 posts so I can join the discussions I want to join. There seems like there has to be a better way.

While they're making sweet roms for us to use the rest of is are here to help others get to know how they work and contribute fixes for people who get unlucky and brick there phones.

Would have to agree with you kentu3. MOst of the questions have already been answered if you search.
Another thing that I do before posting a question about ROM "xyz" is to read the whole thread on that rom. You would be or not be suprised as to how many times the same question gets asked.
Thanks again kentu3 for this thread, and a big thanks to the DEV's and MOD's who make this site worth visiting
Hi! New here. I for one like the 10 post rule because it helps keeping it clean and when you surpass the limit you have proven yourself worthy.
Coming from a wide range of other communities, also as admin or moderator, I instantly knew XDA's rule was brilliant. Looking forward to contributing in any way I can.
Now I'm gonna try and find out how to find this Thanks-button in XDA app

It is quite an ad-heavy site unless you use a blocker of some description. There's also a mammoth amount of content. I've seen a lot of people mention load times as a downfall, but to be honest I don't notice it taking any longer than some of the other tech sites I frequent
Load times are such a subjective thing though, everyone will differ. What browser do you use? Firefox seems to pop up a lot re: slow load times.
Well I typically do most of my surfing at work, which I use IE right now. Don't have much of a choice. I downloaded Firefox a while back but it never worked right. Not sure if it's because of the firewall or whatever here, (I have no idea how that all works) but Firefox was terrible. I tried to get Chrome but it's blocked too.
The slowness to me isn't really a huge deal, just curious why as other forums I frequent load pretty fast. But the more I surf around here, there is a TON of info.

I use IE (6) at work too Ed, and it's noticeably (horribly) slower than Chrome at home. Likewise, all other options are restriced here for me.
For personal use at home, the latest Chrome with Ad Blocker Pro (free) works extremely well at speeding up the genera;l browsing experience here at XDA. It is a resource-heavy forum so it still takes a little longer to load, but that's the price I pay for the wealth of information here, to me personally anyway
Could be worse, I was on 56k at home until last year when they upgraded our RIM (out in woop-woop)
Hi,
Sorry if this has been asked before, I could not find the information I was looking for.
I am a senior member and I am limited to 8 thanks per day, this had previously been more than enough for me. However I started a thread that has been published all over the web and is featured on xdaTV it has had 76,000 views and 1000 post in only 2 weeks. Here is the thread...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1688538
Since starting the thread I keep running out of thanks, many people have made a great contribution to the thread and deserve a thanks from me.
Is there anyway I can get more thanks? If I can get my user rank upgraded would this give me more daily thanks.
Sorry if I don't thank you for your replies lol, I'll have to thank you now in advance.
Regards,
Oliver
i dont know if an upgrade (maybe to recognized cantributor) will give you more thanks, but if you are using tapatalk or/and tapatalk based apps like xda premium you dont have any limit....

I'm using both lol, seriously, I got xda premium and liked it so much I then bought tapatalk.
The apps say I have thanked the user, but they are not thanked. Probably just a little bug with tapatalk.
If being a recognized contributor would give me more thanks I'd appreciate that, how do you apply or do they contact you?
Cheers for your reply mate,

Being an RC doesn't give you any more thanks for now but we are requesting an increase in the daily thanks limit. Check here for more info on the RC program.
i dont know if it will give you more thanks, but anyway read this:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1646309
Thanks to all for your replies,
It would be nice to be recognised for the contributions I have made to this forum, but not important for me. I would have expected being recognised would increase your thanks privilege. I feel 8 per day is enough for most users but no not for RC's or myself
Looks like I am stuck at 8
Sorry I cant click your thanks buttons.

We may get a few more at some point, but the reason it is limited is to prevent it from becoming too devalued. What if everyone had dozens or hundreds or thousands of thanks? Besides, we used to only have 5 a day just a few months ago.

We have requested that but are awaiting the mods and admins decision. If not, then no big deal. I just won't thank snarky or funny posts as much which do make me laugh, but don't add real value to the site.
Bumping to ask if there is any action on increasing the amount of thanks.
8 just isn't working
Maybe I'm a serial thanker, yet it's slightly frustrating constantly running out on some of these dev\help\guide threads.
Any consideration for an increase from the top would be a very good.
Curious as to why the number 8 vs 10 or say 15 :fingers-crossed:
