Just thought you should know - About xda-developers.com

That xda is a seedy tech forum

I would hope there are very few people here who would consider that to be a "daring champion of innovation".....
Seriously....

It's MIUI. I dispute the fact it is ANYTHING worthy of note. It's just a kang.
#thatisall
Interesting article from a journo's perspective... But at the end of the day, it's MIUI, and that means it's not safe.

Its miui and that means it's not safe?

I think the OP just found it amusing that XDA was referred to as "seedy"...

I wouldn't consider XDA one of the dark corners of the internet as they put it.

Don't let Dirk hear you say that. He's all over MIUI at the minute. I had a fling with it for a couple of months but ended up back at AOSP eventually. I still think about it sometimes. It's not like I still love it, but it will always have a place in my heart.

Question about Cm7.1 and apps

Just installed this last night Its amazing coming from 7.0.0 finally with the mouse cursor support.
Now I just backed all my apps from Titanium and noticed it would not back up and wont let me back up Full HDMI nor LCD Density and couple of other apps that I was running perfectly on 7.0.0 RC2 just wanted to know if anyone knows what is the problem thanks.
Look for the answer in the Questions & and Answers Section is sitting there waiting for you. In case you happen to miss the answer ask in the Questions & Answer section someone will help you.
I now open the gates to the bashing.
Just figured I would ask in here since apps are part od developement and so are Rom but thanks.

The "development section" isn't for things related to, but only for the development of. Such as a new rom or kernel for the masses to flash and or kang. You simply asked a question. That goes in the Q&A section as previously stated...

Not sure if trolling.....
Anyway: yeah, OP:
Here's an idea:
You could come up with a shorter catchphrase that kind of takes everything in your post, and makes it a collective thought:
Like, I dunno.... maybe something along the lines of:
"Don't feed the Trolls?"
That's got a nice ring to it.

Maybe we need another forum under E4GT called "Troll pen". If we feed them there, maybe they won't venture out into our world? Though we'd need someone to stay in there to act as bait..

Don't feed the trolls

Like all forums XDA has a number of trolls. Some this behavior is intentional some of it not, sometimes its just down to language differences.
Part of my day job involves spending my time on programming forums where I come across troll behavior. One of things that has helped me to ignore this and not get worked up I learned from this presentation by Nicole Sullivan (aka Stubbornella).
Its well worth watching it and has helped me keep my blood pressure low.

Actually that's an interesting point. What about if voice exceeds decibel limit, reduce output. This is an easy line of code to shut those screamers up. And maybe recognise curses? Or if other users can record and report people trolling, they could get banned quickly. Just a suggestion.
Troll JuJitsu, perhaps?

And this is publicity stunt that has them selling...they're practically paying their customers to by the new unit! $345 for the old iPhone 4S 64GB with their buyback program...some will be making a profit. No wonder they sold out
How long do we think the current set of Android devices will be the best choice? I mean, until they are one-upped by the next set of Android devices obviously. I just don't know the lineup of the future.

This and this can you give an idea, it's the upcoming line up of phones to Sprint. Although some are just rumors or leaks, but they have been spot on most of the time with dates and specs.
There was another website that had more info but can't find it...
I think this is the right place for this..
