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Outdated player would fit fit me.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 Now I can be a l33t outdated playa.

All devs must see this!

ROMbot made this forum (i think he did since he's the only poster, besides mine) and copied and pasted all the roms on here, xda, with no credit or links to op from here. I already started a thread there calling him out on this... you all should do the same, unless you don't mind....
Thanx to Shokouhi (carbonite Z) for finding this....

He's a whole two releases behind on mine :O
But seriously, it looks like he's doing this across many devices... and since the user is called "ROMBot," it could very well be a spider bot that crawls xda and pulls stuff.
I notice on mine anyways, he/she/it only grabbed the first post... which is odd, because if he/she/it were a human, he/she would've grabbed all the OPs.
Weird stuff.

Maybe its jdk up to his old tricks

As a member of the rescue squad over on those forums, developers are always given credit. Either named directly, a link to XDA or both. If you see that is not the case, please bring it to a mods attention.

I wouldn't worry about it.
I think stoney is they only real person to post there lol.
Would be very surprised to see that forum go anywhere.

Of course it does. The EVO has flash and um, um, well that's really the only connection I see here.
Actually there are more connections when you really think about it. These devices run on batteries. They have memory. There considered electronics. I can go on and on......
You see, when you use your imagination you can come up with so many things that link this to the EVO!
I am going to go and start another thread here comparing 3d TV's. Imagine all the relationships to the EVO there!

whatever guys...im showing you a big innnovation for apple, them getting a way of flash, something that us android guys have had over them for a while...all i said is i think its cool, a little late but cool, but its still not better than android because if i read correctly it has to reroute the videos into a format i devices can read...some of you need to relax and open a notch on your belt,real talk
and btw how is this not related to us? We have had flash for a while and has been a main selling point on commercials! if you listen to advertisements you can hear it yourself, some of you really need to calm down

I come here to read about the evo and android, not what's going on with the iphone.

You are missing the point everyone is trying to make. You are clogging the general section with garbage that really has nothing to do with the evo. There is an off topic section that is accessible from the main forum (I believe that's where it is). I think your threads would be more appropriate there.

+1 all you do is link us to phandroid or engadget or some other android/tech blog. Some of us already frequent these sites and see this information and the rest of us don't go to those sites for a reason.

Innovation?? More like a need. Apple decided to take off flash favoring HTML5, unfortunately a very significant amount of websites still use flash and there is no incentive to make the switch to the new format. I guess Jobs got pissed that he could not access many websites that were flash enabled and decided that it was needed to put it back. There no innovation on this.
and btw how is this not related to us? We have had flash for a while and has been a main selling point on commercials! if you listen to advertisements you can hear it yourself, some of you really need to calm down

I won't agree on this. As stated by myself and others: we see these already. If they are not "HTC Evo 4g" related they do not belong here. Even if they are related they are not necessary. It is nice to get a discussion going from time to time but it makes it really hard to sift for ACTUAL news when you post so much of this stuff.

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.
