Offtopic proposal for T989 Subforum

Dear T989 community.
While the T989 forums are sometimes cluttered with random useless posts and comments, I was wondering if you could possible entertain the idea of having a specific thread for off-topic posts.
I understand that XDA does have a General - Offtopic subforum but it may be nice if we could have a specific thread for our T989 forum that would allow offtopic discussion without it being so regulated. (Still within the XDA rules)
It may allow for some of the tensions that have grown here lately to calm down by allowing us to just talk as a community about random things. It would also allow the community to grow here in our little sub-forum.
(Just to clarify, I do not mean a whole new section in the T989 sub-forum on XDA. Just a single topic in the general discussion T989 board.)
-Ava
There should be a forum for the haters and the haters of the haters.

New users are not allowed to help... :( ???

I have just registered because I wanted to help somebody with one question in a development forum. After registering, I realized that I'm not allowed to post in the development forums until I post 10 times in the general forum because this forum is only for expert users. I cannot catch the connection between new user and development expertise...
Well, no matter. If the help and collaboration is not wanted, I'll let the user's question unanswered.
I will just continue only reading and not participating...
Bye...

one question in a development forum.

That question should have never been in the development forum in the first place, it should have been in Q&A if available or general if not. You could also PM the user, rather than spamming maybe?

This ^^^^. The question shouldn't be asked in a development forum, that is what q&a is for... development is for development, not questions... not even a question about the rom/kernel should be in development... only development related things... as one of my fav devs say, logcat or gtfo of development forums...

Anthrax forum

Just curious how many people here actually joined and have been able to download that kernal... I have been on it for 3 days and still haven't been approved. Even though I have made at least 10 post.. It is another site with interesting chit chat from other peoples point of view (which is why I have joined many forums) but the first forum my post can't even be seen yet by me or others..
You probably shouldn't have made this thread.
Check your PM

Thanks for the heads up.
Thread cleaned and closed
I will not tolerate bashing of any developer
Especially if it will create drama here
Also Anthrax discussion is not allowed on XDA and should be taken to the site where it can be found
Please respect the developer's and XDA's wishes and seek support there.
It is OK to mention Anthrax and even add to your sig but no links or lengthy discussions
Thank you for your cooperation

Change "Min.10 posts policy"

Hi
I am a junior member of XDA but I have a good experience of flashing ROMs. But the problem is that I cannot post any review/reply about that ROM due to this policy by which you should have minimum 10 posts. I understand that development-purpose threads are for developers but this policy restricts us to do any sort of development-related discussion even if we are capable of doing so. So I would request XDA to please remove the policy. Thanks.
Oh great. Another one of these threads...
It's only 10 posts. It's NOT 50, 100 or anything. It's ONLY 10. You're already half way there so go and help some people in your devices Q&A section to get your other 5 posts.
If your excuse is going to be that you haven't got the knowledge to help people out, then you have no need to post in development.
In fact, I pretty much guarantee you'll have nothing relevant to post in a development thread anyway.

All the mods want to hunt you down and kill you, but they aren't allowed to acknowledge this in public

No full-form.
XDA was a HTC device back in the PDA days, and that device was responsible for the birth of this site. More Info.

If you can contact an administrator or senior mod, they may be able to help lift your restrictions. But you have to be able to convince them that you are knowledgeable. This is not guaranteed. Easiest thing to do is to hang out in the General Forums and help other new members so as to attain your 10 posts.
I'm personally tired of threads like these. Funny, I don't see anyone anywhere complaining about lifes rules. What's the difference here? Everyone here had to adhere to this rule, why should you or anyone else be any different? I just don't get it...
Ohh!!

Well, removing isn't really an option, that would allow idiots to spam noob questions after 1 day.
But I've been here since mid 2011, been reading a lot, just not posting anything.
And I still have to meet the 10 posts rule. Maybe it's an idea to have either 10 posts, or being on the forum for a certain amount of time and have an x amount of pageviews or something.
Nonetheless, rules are rules, and rules are not to be broken :good:
For all you 10 post whiners in this thread, have a look at this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2166989
A thread created by a new member. 4 of his 5 posts are uuseless threads ffor which answers can be easily found by a bit of searching, what would happen now if this Guy was let loose in the development forum? I am not saying that all of you are like this. I have also seen some members whose first post was an extremely informative thread, but that's at a minority. Rules are rules and they are there for a reason, i realized this after staying on xda for more than 1.5yrs
