Thoughts for IRC discussion place

A thought occurred to me here while just browsing the forums.
If it doesn't already exist, I'm wondering how many senior members as well as new members might be interested in having a place where live dialog could be done. Many a time I could see threads and posts by people looking for help or just making a simple query out of curiosity waited days or weeks before seeing a resolve or no answer at all on ones which the answer was easy. I've taken a few that looked like no answers that I was reasonably sure I was correct and posted an answer to and thusly those people probably at least if they did get a resolve went away thinking at leastsomeone was watching wanting to share knowledge and experience. Now while I know it could not replace the overall usefullness of a forum, as with a forum the answer is only a search away. Some answers could be resolved without saying "search the forum" or more degrading and sarcastic answers like "Why don't people just learn to use google to search" coming from an It support background I understand there are people that don't fully understand search engines or forums but are very good at following step by step instruction or pointing directly to a link to a post on the forum.
So my idea is a reasonably setup irc server with channels named properly to reflect the device of interest "Blue Angel" "Hermes" "Elf" "Universal" etc. where a person could go for quick explination or direction. and talk live to other members.
also a general discussion area for say windows mobile in general, or even just general rant about achievements or development feedback and idea sharing with more experienced developers who want to join in.
I don't know if this I already available as I haven't seen any that relate to this forum. But I think it would be a good resoure to both new and more senior and experienced users to have available.
Please feel free to give your feedback on this idea, but as I know how forums can be.
Please keep your feedback constructive and professional like the intelligent and respectful people I've seen so far.
Thanks
Note: yes to answer this ahead of time I'm thinking about starting up something like this or would be willing to help set it up if the owners of this forum would be interested. feel free to move this thread to a more proper section as you see fit
You are right it requires a lot

Hi everyone,
I'm in the midst of trying to understand the full potential of a rooted Android phone, and have started a thread here. I wish to invite users with good knowledge of what a rooted phone could do to contribute to the thread here:

Dear Mod

Hello,
I've been scouring these forums for the past week for information on how to develop my own rom, During my search I have found that many other people are asking the same question. I'm wondering maybe it could be a good idea to create a new forum to bring all of these questions together along with the various tutorials for beginners that are currently available into a new section, i.e. Chef central for beginners, where people can learn together and share there findings and maybe the more generous of the knowledgeable members could pop in and give us newbies some occasional help.
Just a suggestion.

[REQUEST]-Fascinate Q&A sub-forum

I don't know if it's just me, but i'm tired of seeing questions galore in the android development sub-forum all the time, and the hostility shown towards people posting in the wrong sub-forum. Is there any way an admin could create a new sub-forum for just Q&A's only, just like how the Galaxy S I9000 forum is set up? I think it would be great for everyone, and the general/development sub-forums would be a lot more organized. Does anyone else agree, or am I in the wrong?
I've included a poll just to see the general consensus about this.
We tried before and we still don't have one, but why not petition for one again.
X2 to this. It's getting old dealing with the madness.
I just hope one of the admins sees this thread this time around.
Would be nice...clear up some if the questions if they were compiled in one area for easier viewing.

Gpad F 8.0 request for forum section

I'm hoping this gets found by other Gpad F 8.0 owners.
I sent the following request to a moderator here:
Hello... I'm hoping you're someone I can submit this request to.
I have an LG Gpad F 8.0, and like a lot of Glad F 8.0 owners, we are finidng that some of the things in the 8.3 forum do not work for us. If you Google search "XDA LG Gpad F 8.0" you will find a number of threads. Some of them have become "catch-all" threads where a variety of questions are asked and we have to hunt through many pages before we find replies. Some questions even get lost in the middle of a larger discussion.
It makes sense that at this point we have our own section to better organize this information, and that is what I'm requesting.
I have been using XDA now since 2007 and its strongest advantage has been thoroughly organized information. I hope we can extend that to the Gpad F 8.0 owners since at this point there are a lot of us.
Thanks,
S

So... I'm hoping we can get out of the 8.3 community's hair and get our own spot. I personally need information about my device and after reading a handful of big threads with random discussions, I'm still confused as to a couple of things. I was going to ask in one of those threads but it occurred to me I didn't know which thread to use since most of them are mixed questions.
So rather than post the same question in multiple threads I realized we really do need our own section. There is a fair amount of information now about our device and it would be better organized in a section with separate threads. Would make web searches easier, too.
I encourage you all who agree with this to contact a moderator to try to get our Gpad F 8.0 its own dedicated section. Thanks
I know AT&T was offering them for a dollar plus connection costs, and I hear now they are free with line connection. So i expect there are a lot more out there than we know. A dedicated section will bring them in. If moderators agree and help to do this, I will gladly organize some of the info into a FAQ thread.

Thanks so much for starting this section. i have one of these tablets i traded for and while i like it, there is so much that can be improved on it once we can obtain a recovery and remove the att bloatware. i am using defensemobile as a carrier and cannot use it as a hotspot or tether due to not having a att account. that is my most important peeve with the tablet. hopefully we will start seeing some progress with developement as there is virtually nothing available at this time. i am pretty sure there are a lot of them out there. once again, thanks.
There is a Forum HERE for this.
