Being told to search isn't trolling. Starting threads for the sole purpose of starting arguments is trolling.

I didn't say he was trolling, I was providing an example of what trolling is. Call me what you wish, it doesn't change the fact that he didn't search enough to not have seen other threads about recent .rdf leaks.

well luckily sprint hasnt givin an official ETA so theyre tryin to avoid the froyo debacle. this is first ive seen of this too thanks shane. there should be an option to ban certain people from posting on your threads.

Your right you didn't. I just don't see why you have to hop on every thread that the op didn't thuroughly search google for. You know a lot of us are on tapatalk or xdaapp and its impossible to search. And besides this is the only thread discussing this current build, if it wasn't it'd be another story and you'd be right to flame him for not even looking through the first pages. I'm really not trying to argue with you, you seem like a cool, informative person I just wish I didn't see you on so many threads in every subsection chastising people for not searching or whatever, it gets old.. and this is general! Nobody cares about general!!!

This is way more deserving of it's own thread than the other 75% of pure crap that gets posted in here. If an official software release version for this phone doesn't deserve it's own topic, than nothing does.
Now back on topic, here's hoping this is the actual release build and we'll see it within a couple weeks. The last leak ran great other than a couple bugs.

Actually I'm at work and saw it there while playing around on my break. I did a search for EF29 on the xda search tool and got no hits so I started the thread.
Begin rant (not targeted at anyone individual)
It's really sad the every f*ckin thread in the general section has to turn in to this. Can't anyone just appreciate that someone takes time to post information? This is way better than the 250 see ya bye, the epic sucks, or threads about other phones in the epic section. I'm really starting to see why the developers are leaving this site. The site I came here from wouldn't put up with this crap at all. You get 3-4 post like what happened in this thread and it get's closed and warnings go out to the instigators. Who want's to put up with this crap? I'm hoping this is my last post in this thread, but somehow I doubt it.
End rant
@063_XOBX: Why would I add place info about EF29 in the EF16 thread? People first look at a thread by the title, not by what's buried 100 posts in.

just so everyone is clear....a title that begins with:

yes im a troll. but maybe, just maybe, someone will learn and spare the rest of us.
I believe we can't port over the Vibrant because it's GSM and we're CMDA..
Could be wrong; but I think thats what i've read before.
Also.. Your title is a little misleading; you shouldn't put ROM in brackets if you arn't launching a ROM

The other thing about this post that i find just staggeringly stupid is that if you look down a little bit on most days you'll see noobnl's posts about 6.1 betas for the epic and how hes working on it, which only goes to prove that the search feature is either dead or non function for the Epic section of the forums, or somehow the words get distorted when other people that the poster and the literate read them.

HAHA, love it. Yeah I was commenting the other day on how google's servers are apparently down. Perhaps we could start a thread "[ROM][FIX][BUG][REQ][WIKI][STICKY][SEX][PLEASE][STOP] SEARCH FUNCTION BROKEN!!!!!!!!!" to let everyone know that they will need to just man up and create a new thread every time they have a question about anything, no matter how stupid, useless, or even already answered.
I will work on setting up a petition for the new thread?

i would say someone should sticky a post with some ettiquite (cant spell since my work's IE doesnt have spell check lol) "tips and tricks" kind of like the forum's rules that you have to read when you sign up, except it would probaly be moved to the general sub forum because it has nothing to do with development and probally be ignored worse than XDA's rules.

This thread will get closed, as it does in fact accomplish nothing. I just wanted, if only for a short period of time, to bring into light how much effort people put in to complaining around here. No, it is most certainly not everybody. But for crying out loud, the general section is beginning to look like an activist corner.
An outsider would come to our forum, see all those threads I posted...and probably just think of how much of an ungrateful bunch we are. I mean people have every right to their opinion, but seriously, there are enough threads to start a "hate" section.

please quote which post i said their opinions are "wrong"....in fact..if you check my last post, i said that eeveryone is entitled to their opinions
HOWEVER, its not fair to the people who are making due with what we have and having fun making it better, to have their posts absolutely buried by 12+ threads complaining about LITERALLY the same issues. Its one thing to have an opinion, but its another to jam it down everyones throat in hopes that everyone will follow you.
Does more than one person have the same opinion? of course! But organize it. consolidate it. dont drown the forum in negativity. at that point its just sloppy *****ing.

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.

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.

How do we make this forum better?

Ok, guys. I have not been a user of the Fascinate forum for very long now, but coming from the Droid X section, I have to be honest in saying that this forum needs some help.
That being said, I do know that there aren't a lot of Fascinate owners, especially on this site. Its just sad that I can go and sometimes need to go over to the Captivate forums to get answers. Sad panda.
I would like to get every ones opinion on how to make this forum better, and once the ideas are put into one place, go ahead and have them implemented.
No excuses fellas. Lets make this forum better for all of us!
Thanks in advance!
This may be more directed to a mod than you, but if we keep ONE thread specifically for a lulz thread where we can troll and stuff would be great. Also issue infractions if we troll other threads. I love trolling but there's plenty of times where trolling is unnecessary and possibly hurtful. With all the lulz around that ONE thread would stay busy, while not cluttering up potentially important threads.
/steps off soapbox
More than one troll thread will be necessary to allow for anyone who wants to start one. But if you want to start one use a header like [Troll] or make the title so obvious no one can miss it. Also, confine to the General or Q&A section. Keep it clean, free of excessive profanity and vulgar sexual references, and flagrantly abusive posts.
Edit: I also visit the Captivate forum for answers, but that's because I still have a Captivate, though it's deactivated (wifi only )
Has anyone seen John Connor?

Agreed. I like the [TROLL] idea
Does that really help the problem or just hide it in the basement.
It's like telling a recovering alcoholic it's ok to knock a few down when no one's looking.

It hides it in the basement. What some of us are really looking for is lulz threads. What we often get, though, is lulz threads that degenerate into nastiness and get closed, leaving us with one less lulz thread.

I wonder if we could get a lulz sub-forum. It would be groundbreaking lol.
Find a like-minded individual with A LOT of spare time to moderate. We could be trend setters for the entire XDA community.
/me has delusions of grandure
"I didn't say that...my Fascinate has a tiny troll inside it."
Just wondering why is it called lulz, what does it stand for why not call it hating or something else just wondering...
Maybe if you left it would be a better place.

Thats exactly the kind of stuff that starts the downhill to flaming and closed threads

Don't you mean lulz?
good day.
I guess if you want this to be a better place, you have to get a different phone.
It's unfortunate, but it seems the fascinate clique is just a bunch of lulz trolls who act 11. Funny how they made so much fun of Enyo, amirite?
C'mon Galaxy Nexus

the grass may always seem greener, but it wont be
the gnex will have a huge community both here and on rootzwiki and i guarantee it will be the flame/troll epicenter of the world
with that many users it cant be anything but
and ull have several legit developers and 500 enyo's who cant do anything with android source and will just kang cm7 or other roms and put a theme on it
it ll be a crapfest
The snobbery around here is outstanding.
