User profile post glitch - About xda-developers.com

Hi everyone,
has anybody noticed a glitch in your XDA user profile. Because when I go there, it says I have 151 posts, where in reality this is my 159th post. Is there something wrong in the database?
Although it isn't really that important, it might be forum-wide so I just wanted the mods and members to know.
Thanks in advance!
EDIT: After posting this thread, I've noticed it keeps changing from 158 posts to 152 posts. I think it's settled at 152.

It's weird. Over 200 people have viewed, no reply. The glitch was temporary.

Maybe the 200 people don't count their posts.

[Q] Problems with LiquidSmooth? Possible bugs?

1. I made it so that it should show a bar that would let me change the brightness on the notifications tab. The thing you pull down with the time and your on/off toggles. (I have it turned on but it won't show anymore, I turning it off and rebooting and turning it on but it still won't show.)
2. Apps randomly crashing and it saying "Messenger has stopped working" or whatever.
And videos take forever to load, and sometimes when skipping it says "Gallery has stopped working", before I used LiquidSmooth the battery drained because of the Samsung stuff but now the battery is the same or a bit better but I have problems I didn't have before?
You'd get more help in the thread itself then opening a new one here..

Someone doesn't know the rules , I'm not allowed to post in development threads until I have 10 posts. And I can't post more than a post every 5 minutes because I have to be confirmed by a moderator :|.

PM the dev. Whining because you broke something in the Q&A forum is considered bad manners. Telling experienced users they do not know the rules is also frowned upon.
Try a different rom if the one you are using does not work for your needs. This is not a difficult concept. The are several flawless roms out there. Anything the deviant team (DJ or Evil) has out works great.
Reflash rom dont forget to wipe.. also fix permissions so :
Wipe
Flash rom
Fix permissions..

So would I lose everything again? I already wiped and flashed the rom. Not again but you know to root it and yeah.

Back it up, I'm not whining about anything. I'm just asking a simple question. If you cannot be mannerly and kind about it, I suggest you don't bother posting on the thread. And if he/she knew the rules he/she wouldn't have posted his/her ignorant remark stating to post on the development thread. That surely doesn't show their experienced either.
You could've just said that. Simple as that. You didn't have to come onto this thread being a complete douche bag.

I didn't say you were ignorant. Because that'd be spam posts. I didn't know where else to post because the rest of my question threads someone would come and just answer my question.
My apologies, I'm used to whole bunches of douches just coming to flame and what not.

Please read people holy cow!!!

To all xda-ers
Read read read and read again.....then search....and read some more holy crap people the CALL ECHO ON JELLYBEAN ROMS WILL BE PRESENT UNTIL WE GET AN OFFICIAL ROM FROM TMOBILE OR UNTIL SOMEONE FINDS A PERMNANET FIX FOR IT UNTIL THEN STOP ASKING ABOUT IT JEEZE... I don't know how many times I've seen this question but I've seen it one too many.
Theirs small things like make sure noise suppression is checked in your call settings or someone else stated that turning the volume down a bit fixes it. And or flashing another radio could cause a temp fix for it...but please read and or search before asking questions......
Number one rule here guys search before asking questions as your question may have been answered already and 95% of the time IT HAS!!!

I've never had a call echo complaint on AOKP JB, and have been running it for months.
I hope you feel really good about yourself, starting this thread all over such a small issue.
The irony of this post is that now when people search up "call echo" on the search bar now, this is the first thread out of several dozens of other threads that shows up and mentions this issue.
What's worst is that the post doesn't solve anything at all, lol. If it really bothered you, you could have simply provided links in your post to the particular threads where those who are actually looking will know where to search for prior answers.
In that way it will save you time and others... additionally, your rant wouldn't be another waste of space in these forums and instead actual be of some use to people... just a thought.
In the second paragraph I clearly stated the little things that people have found to temporarily fix the issue

And its a small issue that every one keeps asking about Instead of searching or reading thru the forums I've seen it asked at least 10 times or more in multiple threads I myself don't have the issue and why even post in here saying This is a waste of space when your reply was also a waste considereing none of you posted anything to help with the issue either but clearly just posted to flame

What kind of responses were you expecting from your post? Obviously since you emphasized greatly that people need to use the search bar more there is no need for us to add more to the minor information you already posted other than proper links... which then again contradicts using the search bar. As much as it is a nuisance, there are always going to be people on these forums who will ask old questions... don't let it be your problem, you're not obliged to answer the questions all the time. There are actually some bright people on the forums that enjoy the idea of helping someone (even if it's a common question), cheers!

^^^ This ^^^
I understand your wanting to rant and I feel your frustration (Believe me when I say this. You should see some of the stuff that comes our way). Like FT said above, there is always going to be someone that asks the same question over and over and over, sometimes the same question in multiple threads. These people will never learn. But they are becoming more and more predominate in the forums lately.
We have 4.8m users and anywhere from 36-50k users online at a time. That type of userbase is fantastically hard to comprehend when it comes to things like this. Few want to learn anymore and many just come here to make their phone/tablet cool looking and could care less about smali hacks, de/compiling apks (what apk means for that matter), Android.policy.jars,...
Best answer I could give you now is to simply ignore those posts and move on to the next relevant post. If you want to answer, then by all means. Users should help each other when possible. But that doesn't mean spoonfeeding either.

[Off-topic] If you see a member of higher ranks, do you instantly have more respect?

Hey guys.
I've been thinking about this, and it got me wondering..
If you see someone with a Recognized Contributor title, Recognized Developer title, or anything else higher than 'senior member' do you find yourself having more respect for those types of people versus a senior member telling you something? This applies to questions being answered, opinions, or any other given situation. If this thread gets 'popular' I'll throw up a poll.
Also, please do us all a favor and elaborate on the reason(s) why you said yes, no, or anything of the like.
Thanks!

Basically, if someone posts a question and it's answered properly I don't care if the answer came from a n00b or an RC. I'd be more inclined to accept an RC answer than a lesser rank if there was some doubt, though

Exactly what he said. *footnote being there are lots of senior members that if you look at their info have been members since 2007 but have very little posts and thanks. And their questions or answers very often reflect that. So I tend to look at that as well when trying to decide if I'm going to take their opinion seriously or as pertinent as someone else.

It seems like the higher ranks get more respect
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
Interesting question..
Usually respect comes out of combination of their rank, number of posts and thanks.
Also when you follow particular threads like a hawk, the members worth respecting are visible on every next page.

I will say, I never look at the 'Thanks Meter'. If you need a signature with 'If I've helped, click thanks' then you're just out for the numbers...

Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
I mostly always use xda app so ranks/posts/thanks aren't readily visible, but even when they are known I simply respect those that are respectful. On my last phones forum I lost quite a bit of respect for some of the devs actually just for their portrayed superior attitudes. If you don't like someone coming in and asking a repeat question (which I do understand can be frustrating) just ignore them, all the flaming just intensifies the problem.
I also agree about signatures asking for thanks, while I enjoy seeing my thanks meter go up it doesn't actually mean anything in the grand scheme of things. And while I'll still give a thanks if I appreciate the post, I'm less inclined too when the person asks for it.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda premium
Hell no thanks don't matter. Anyone who's ever been to OT knows that the number of thanks a member has doesn't have anything to do with how knowledgeable they are.
As far as a contributor or dev, I don't judge somebody by the color of their name, I'm not a namecist.
Anyways the majority of posts and questions are more user related, so they do not require someone with vast knowledge of coding/themeing/etc. Anyone can answer a thread like HLP BATTRY FUUUU!, not just a "higher ranked user".
Having all of the requirements and becoming recognized should grant that user immediate respect. Devs too.
Users with hella post and thanks have probably seen a thing or two so they get respect but you gotta watch some of em lol
I wouldn't "instantly" respect anyone. Respect isn't something that should be just given away, people who actually deserve it get it.
Well yeah I guess. Only higher than me is RD, RC and Moderator. Senior Member status is earned by such a small amount of posts that I think it should be raised to 1,000 posts. It should be something that takes longer to achieve.
Thanks for all of your responses guys!

i look at EVERYTHING. sig, info in the sig, posts, thanks(meaning what you were thanked for), join date and then i'll also look at past posts ... ESPECIALLY if the person is trolling. even if it wasnt intentional trolling.
there are some people tho that have 10k posts because all they post is "SEARCH" ten times or bump their friends threads all the time. and then thats why they have 100k thanks. that person i will flame til deaths end and its because they are the people that are detrimental to this community. I admit my stats arent the greatest here but mostly because i have been using forums for the past ten years and have decided I have better things in my life to pick on people that are on the internet. I am here to help people out.
thanks mbq likin this post

I don't necessarily automatically respect them, I just use the title and post count as a quick gauge of whether I should trust their opinion. That being said, I've seen a lot of people (like ben.nesheim said) that pad their post count with useless crap. There are a lot of people here that I know have high post counts that I don't trust on anything, and dread seeing their name in a thread. Then there are others that only have hundreds of posts (sometimes less) that are the most helpful and knowledgable people you'll find, they just don't post drivel. I think the title and post count are great quick indicators, but nothing more. Once you get into recognized developer or contributor territory, I give them a little more credit right off, but to me the respect still has to be earned.
And like EddyOS said, the signature tells you a LOT about a person. I make it a point not to hit the thanks button if your signature asks for it. We all know why its there, you don't need to remind me.

CAPTCHA's here are ridiculous:(

CAPTCHAs here at XDA are a nuisance. I have to refresh them 5-10 times on average to see what they are saying...annoying. Anyone hate this as much as I do???
Well this won't get your post count up but maybe banned. I use the app sigs don't exist

give it time and a mod or tony himself will answer, the question was not directed to you
Sorry if you thought I took it personally. I don't take anything on this site personally. I'm only here to ask questions, bug report, and help people when I can. If you read the thread, it would be pretty obvious. Instead of the thread accumulating 50 pages of whining about battery life or something off topic, he probably locked the thread, as he mentioned a few times that he was really busy and wouldn't be updating for several weeks. Do we really want the thread to be like the shpongle thread where everything had been said but nobody can find it through the last 50 pages of off topic?
