Hello,
I have a question regarding the Pling.com if is allowed in XDA or not. According to rule XDA Rule 13 Pay-Per-Click links does not allowed, and that's true till Monday which I reported a thread for link there.
The moderator removed the thread from public view but few hours later it was back and today I got a notification that XDA is now allow Pling.com as File Host. I have nothing against the moderator but I want to be sure if it's allowed or not since I cannot find anywhere this change which XDA announces that pling.com is allowed.
Thanks.

Edit: Yes, Pling is permitted, I'm not sure we have a public thread available, but an announcement was made to the staff.

Thanks for the reply.
Yeap I can't see the thread but I see the title of the link which is saying enabling-pling-on-xda.
Thanks for the clarification.

My mistake, that thread was presented to the RD's as a source of opinion.
To answer your question: Yes, Pling is an approved file host. At some point I imagine we will have a public announcement.

Hello and good morning.
From your screenshots I see that @Funk Wizard was the acting moderator. What occured was that during the handling of the first report, the decision about pling.com was still under discussion in the responsible moderators body and as such pending, although all moderators were already aware that such a discussion was ongoing.
Then the discussion was finally made yesterday and announced to all moderators; the reason why the next, new report was now handled as done by Funk.

Just for your information: I've removed the link from the quotation in your post because it referred to a forum with limited access.

Hello Oswald,
Yes, this is what I imagined after the clarification of V0latyle.
Nothing against the moderator Funk. I just wanted to be sure because I maintain a collection & guides thread (like this) and some ROMs / Kernels are hosted there, so I can include them.
Thanks for your time looking at this and for the detailed explanation.

I'm fully aware that you didn't complain about @Funk Wizard and I'm convinced nobody read it that way. Actually, anything different had wondered me because Funk was perfectly correct with all his action.
And affirmative, at your own discretion you can certainly now add links to pling.com to your repo's, collections or guides. We highly appreciate that you keep them up to speed.

Pling now accepted on XDA. Does that mean it's no longer considered as a Pay-Per-Click link.

Affirmative, we now accept it as a filehost on XDA. If you go to opendesktop.org payout terms & conditions it's a paid-per-download site, and we're well aware. We discussed it lengthly, under consideration of multiple aspects and feedback from our recognised developers.

Members, this thread is to report any found Spam.
And or hit the report button is also a great way to report the found spam, thanks in advance, for helping keep XDA clean.
Remember the Moderators are all in different time zones, and we are not able to be all over XDA even for some of us that do not have a life other than XDA, this is why we rely on those XDA Members to assist in either posting here or reporting the spam on the reporting system that goes to the Moderator Teams for those areas, and again we are all on different time zones on this World Wide Web.
>>>FOR MSG'S SENT VIA YOUR CONVERSATION (PM) INBOX ON XDA, DO NOT POST HERE, REPORT THE CONVERSATION VIA THE REPORING SYSTEM AND IT WILL BE ADDRESSED FOR YOU.
THANK YOU!

Hi,

This type of issue should always be handled by PM. I suggest forwarding the PM in question to your local forum moderator where it was posted and letting them handle it. Please do not post problems like this publicly as it doesn't help to get it resolved generally. I would suggest removing the screen shot from your post above.

Thanks, I have already contacted the moderator.
Pls report the PM. No moderator will action a forwarded PM.
Use the triangle button on the top right corner of the PM and click send.

I've seen the root request, which has been Solved, but have not seen a formal request for a Custom Rom.

Hey guys, so recently I enabled developer options and was trying all the things suddenly I came across Display cutout option I tried 2 of its options and the third option I tried made my screen black so I panicked and restarted the device since then phone goes on bootloop . Now the thing is I have some serious Credentials in the phone which I don't want to loose that's the reason I'm not wiping data is there any other way I can just clear the settings I changed so I can have my data safe . I haven't enabled usb debugging mode nor the OME Unlocking thing everything was off when this happened . Please Help Me. If someone would like to help or know how to deal with this situation please message me.

I'd like to inform you that I've deleted references to Discord! As an exemption from the last bullet of rule no. 5 of the XDA Forum Rules, we grant only developers the privilege to share references to their social media in their own development threads. These conditions obviously don't apply to this thread or you. If you want to support others in the spirit of XDA, please do it publicly on XDA but refrain from sharing of references to social media and attempts to drag members to whatever social media.
Additionally, I've delete the thread that you posted just minutes ago and not only because you created the thread in the development section, for which it didn't qualify at all, but it was an exact duplicate of this thread. It looks to me that you have to seriously review the XDA Forum Rules, to which you agreed to adhere when you registered on the private platform yesterday. Please post only ONCE, and prior to posting read the guidances that are stuck on top of every forum or section. Thanks for your cooperation.
