Senior Status?

I always wondered how you got senior status. I am older than dirt so I knew it wasn't age. I have been a member since March 2006 so it is not how long you have been a member. I am smart, good looking, and modest but no one could know that.
Then I hit 100 posts and I became a senior member but I did not get any bonus gift or anything like that. Old age is not for sissy's and life is tough.
Edit: Now it shows "OP". Maybe that means "Old Person".

When you reach senior status you also get a sarcasm decoder ring.
Hang in there little buddy.

The only playa I knew anything about are the playa lakes around lubbock but then I did the google thing and found that a playa could also be "Playa, colloquial spelling of "player".
Outdated player would fit fit me.
Getting a reply from the famous Toast was cool.
Edit: Also found out what l33t stood for. Now I can be a l33t outdated playa.

Gingerbread on Aria

I think this is the place to get a good answer...
Does anyone know if the Aria can handle 2.3 Gingerbread? Is the processor strong enough?

I think this is a good enough answer: yes because the whole processor requirment was a myth.

@thedicarlos, its ok to ask questions, thats what were here for, however its always good practice to research the forum before asking. check the stickies, do a quick search, etc. chances are someone has already asked the same thing and recieved the answer.

Some people are just jack-asses. You can recognize them on the street by the way they shuffle around and won't make eye contact. They find their balls once they are safely locked in mama's basement with their internet connection.

Now that is a good answer! I figure if you don't want to answer my freshman question, then why take the time to make a smart-ass comment? Must be a computer prick!
I work with plenty of them!
To answer why I asked, I didn't think previous threads answered my question about speed. Maybe I should have been more specific!

Yeah...I hate it when these dorks rag on you for asking a simple question know that one day they asked questions themselves...every question can't be answered by searching, and even still, if it's an Aria question why not have the answer right here in the Aria forum instead of diving through many different forums to get a simple answer.
But to answer your question. In my opinion Gingerbread is not "much" different than Froyo so I would say that yes it should be powerful enough to run it. Froyo on the Aria runs great and they say that Gingerbread is faster and smoother, so I can only believe that the experience should be the same on the Aria. Time will tell.

Not only is XDA search your friend, but also Google (atleast for me):
http://www.androidguys.com/2010/12/07/gingerbread-minimum-hardware-requirements/
Now, was that so hard? I picked the first link from a google search of "gingerbread processor requirement"
I'm sorry, I just have a hard time putting up with lazy people.

I'm just horsing around. I'm not offended and I'm just busting ass in return! I moderate several forums on various subjects and it's funny how people love to flame the newcomers who ask questions that have been answered before. Some questions were answered 10 years before. This is a little different and I will try to read through as many backposts as possible to get a feel for the subject matter!
I must admit I'm a newbie and needs to learn a lot, but some people and threads on the HTC Forum make me feel like Einstein!!!!!!

Does it have a meaning?

Hey, yeah WP7, um, in some ways its a great phone, like virtually no lag, easy UI and the quality is just good. But, in saying that, android can just do alot more, it has everything and more that you can ask for. WP7 has great protential, but compaired to other smartphones, its kinda a let down. Then again, i did use a motorola defy in one of the stores, and it was laggy as all hell, so i guess everything has its ups and downs. As for the name, i misspelled a word and then i kinda thought of it from there

Leaving the Atrix....

i now have the SGSII, just got it today and loving it, i've also moved to Sprint due to better service plan, annnnd i get a 25% discount on my bill cause of my job, i loved the atrix but it was time to move on to Sprint to help myself out budget wise, but i hope yall get ICS and more roms(hopefully an official version of CM7) it's been great yall
and no this wasn't meant to steer anybody away from the atrix, just saying goodbye and thanx for all the help and laughs yall, keep it up

It's too bad XDA is overrun with assholes. If you don't care he's leaving, then don't reply and his post will quickly fall the bottom and no one has to read it. Take your insecurities out on someone in real life; see how that works out for you.
G1-8701, peace out. Enjoy your new phone. Though, you should really check out the new Atrix 2. It's way underrated and the sleeper phone of the year (or couple months, whatever it turns out to be).

On so many levels, XDA used to be so much different. (AKA a lot friendlier)
The people trolling in threads and others retaliating with profanity is exactly why we are seeing more and more devs leaving.
We need to have more "community" going on around here. If you don't like a thread, please fight the urge to ignore it instead of getting into a flame war.
And on that note, can we please lock this up?...

Agreed. I tried making a thread to get people too come togther and acomplish something for the betterment of our device and of course same deal someone had too come in and run there mouth. I should have ignored him but spoke my mind and now my thread is closed. Come on people were all on here because we like our device not too argur and pick fights with people.

Will I like this phone or should I buy another phone?
Will this phone be more expensive if I buy it in this shop or that shop?
How much will the nexus 4 be selling for?
When is this phone being released?
Why hasn't Google told us the name of the Nexus 4 phone?
Is the screen really as advertised or will it be different?
Can I get satellite radio on the Nexus 4?
Will the Nexus 4 fit in the pocket of my jeans or will I have to buy some new trousers?

I'm in Australia, what will this phone taste like in Russia?
Does this phone have a battery?
Serious questions !
Oh and were any Gorillas harmed in the making of the glass or is the glass factory staffed by Gorillas?
Last one: Should everyone wait until the phone is released before asking more stupid questions or do we need more stupid questions?
Feel free to add your own stupid question to this thread or, alternatively, ask your own stupid question in the Q&A forum.
It's not polluted enough, go on .. let rip!
