[Q] Collective threads for Q&A-areas? - About xda-developers.com

Hi all!
I'm reading and helping in the i9000-Q&A-area and there always threads like "Which ROM?", "Galaxy bricked, pls help",... Most of the problems could be solved before posting with using the search.
So my idea:
We need people who close threads and moderate this part of the forum. They close and in their final post in the thread they post some (three or four) links to already existing threads and tell the users to post in the older thread.
Additionally there are collective threads with titles like 'Samsung Galaxy S i9000 - Which ROM', 'Samsung Galaxy S - I'm looking for an app which...' and such things. In a german forum we have a huge thread calles 'Samsung Galaxy S - Short question-short answer' so that there isn't an extra thread for every short question -> good idea and works very well.
If you like my idea this could be done in every Q&A-forum of every phone model (and in every tablet-forum too ). So please tell me what you think about!

Nobody? Ok...

Looking for a galaxy sl theme in a forum for galaxy s is some what kind of a hassel because majority if not all posted in galaxy s theme forum is only for sgs..please if any mod can read this please accept my request because i think it is now time we have another section for our sgsl.. I know most of you will just say use the search button but I think we have the right to have another section for our galaxy sl because sgsl's community is growing.. Hope you guys would support this request

I totally agree. I'm kind of stuck here on the development section rather than the news or touching the i9000 forums o.o
Thanks guys.. This will really help us in easily sorting out what we need to find..

I agree with you man...... +10000
Its high time we have our own section separated from that of SGS I9000. Its even more difficult when the theme and app threads are moved to common I9000 section. Its is almost lost and ppl forget it (including the one who created it) as it is not easily accessible.

Your'e right trip.. It seems that they are making it look like we are inferior to sgs by merging us with sgs section with limited thread section (forgot the proper term).

Guys, if anyone of you can talk to a moderator about our request please do.. I'm trying to contact XDAjojo if it's possible that he can make a separate section for us..he is not online yet so I'll just wait till he goes on..

+1. Galaxy 3, Galaxy 5 and Galaxy Ace have their own sections! I believe ours should have one! Infact, Our phone is the right-next-alternative of the Galaxy i9000...The other galaxy are like children of i9000 and i9003 ! We need our section! Atleast, I would love to have one for easy navigation!
This is my 100th post!
+1.it'll b good to have a separate thread
+1, i agree for this
when phones like galaxy Ace etc have their own sections, i believe i9003 should also have its own section. a lot of people use that phone now, so i strongly request the mods to make a separate section for this model!!

Looks like it's been deleted.
Forum search engine points to the same error message when looking for No7102 missing thread.
And I posted a few messages in that thread... my post count has been decreased since it disappeared ...

WTF, my question also? Why would it get deleted? Mods - explain!
I thought maybe a new N7102 group got started, but don't see it.

It was deleted in error. In future can you report things like this via PM to moderators please as we (Samsung International Phone's Moderation Team) have only 4 active members to cover the hole of none US Samsung phones so we don't tend to browse specific forums for questions aimed at moderators.
Also I do not particularly like the tone of some of the posts here, it comes across very demanding like "Mods, you explain this NAOOO!!!". I think you'll find one of the forum rules is never post in a demanding self-entitled manner.
Lastly, questions go in the Q&A forum.

1. Go to Google.com
2. Search "Google Wallet on Note 2"
3. Click an acceptable link to make it work
3. STOP POSTING REPEATED THREADS THAT CAN BE ANSWERED WITH A SIMPLE GOOGLE SEARCH!
4. Have a good day.

Different Rom sections

What is the big difference between the roms contained in these 2 sections? Sorry for being a noob i just dont understand why there are 2 sections. Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development and the Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Development
The roms in the original development section are built from source.
More aosp (less touchwiz).

If im not mistaken I believe you being nonconstructive and this type of behavior is cancerous to forums.
Thanks Android_Monsters for the quick response.
No, I am just kindly stating if you had taken 5 minutes to read through prior posts instead of cluttering the forum with duplicate questions you would have seen the same member who answered your post had answered this question for someone already

I agree. You can usually find your answer a lot quicker on Google than posting a duplicate thread and hoping someone replies. You also avoid people like abcdefg pointing out the obvious.
Learn to use search. You will be glad you did trust me

Ooooooorr, you could have read the big ass sticky in each section to see what the differences were

Or you could just not complain, stop worrying about board clutter, and give an answer to someone who feels the necessity to ask questions that have been asked so many times it makes people want to gouge their eyeballs out with a soldering iron every time they see them. /sarcasm

People get so butt hurt when you call them out for not even trying to search... Apparently, those of us who would like to have fewer garbage topics asking the same thing are the moderators pets or something.. Eflip88 might remember that from a few days ago
No, the reason people get annoyed about a thousand different threads on the same topic couldn't be because it just makes it that much harder for people who actually WANT to do the legwork and use the search bar.. That couldn't be it...

Rules are rules. And if you've been around XDA for as long as you say you'd also know that this topic has been beat to death. @edisile is quite correct! :fingers-crossed:
