Even dumber question re:-> Thanks - Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)

I see folks asking or stating to be sure to 'Thank <whomever>'. I am pretty good about doing that, and have even received some myself. And I believe strongly in polite communications, supporting the community, and so forth.
I'm just curious, while it is certainly very good interaction to have, sometimes it feels like maybe there is more to receiving the thanks than just politeness.
I see more people saying something about thanking someone than telling rude people to tone it down.
Is there some other reason to press the Thanks button. Most 'Thanks award'. A penny for each Thanks, or something.

Except for the super secret awards they give each other at the annual dinners, it doesn't "do" anything...
OTOH, it's a fair indicator for someone reading the post (along with the title and number of posts) if the person is reliable, their information is likely to be good, etc. If someone with less than 10 thanks posts "OMG our phones are going to explode at 10 PM tonight", they're gonna get flamed. OTOH if a recognized developer with 5000+ thanks posts "there's a slight possibility that our phones have a battery issue that could cause the phone to explode at a certain time" then I'm going to take my phone out of my pocket, very slowly, and leave it in a bowl in the bathtub overnight

Thanks can be given for any reason the thanker feels, but generally it's used when somebody says something you agree with, when you share something with the forum, when you help someone with something, those are the most common one's.

Agreed.
I typically use it when someone has supplied an answer that is helpful.
I never do it if they start out by complaining about the questioner not having searched.

Some folks around here seem to go out of their way to beg for "thanks".
Gets kinda weird sometimes.

Right?! As if they can do anything with the thanks they acquire.

Do you like someone thanking you in person for helping them? It's the polite thing to do when a stranger goes out of their way and uses their own spare time to help you just because. What's the big deal with hitting the thanks button to show some appreciation? It's really not that hard.

I think it's the courteous thing to do, but after I help someone I don't tell them "make sure to tell me thanks". If they say it, cool, if not, no worries.

New roms vs original

Hello,
I've been looking around at all the roms etc and their change logs. They look like big improvements, so I updated to CM stable (worked fine, a little bit slow now and then) now I'm using the latest one which is meant to be the fastest but I find it hangs a lot, and is slow quite often.
Is anyone seeing this or is it just my phone.
I also have a question, when I shake my phone I can hear this ratteling sound, is that normal? my phone isn't new
Thanks.

how? becuz i think its dumb if something is moving and rattling and ask if its bad. but anyways ur make a personal attack =)

In his defense it's pretty much common sense that if something is rattling when it didn't used to rattle it's most like not a good thing.

To the OP: You might wanna try wiping your phone and maybe repartitioning your SD, see if any apk's your using have known conflicts with Cyan roms. Can you tell where the rattling is coming from? Also your phone is still under HTC warranty so you might be able to get them to fix it, just gotta pay shipping. Also if your on tmobile they might even do it for you for free.
Ok whatever homos are attacking brian quit your *****in. He has helped A LOT of people out here. Me and the other 2 are the ones who started the hijacking, not him. He is actually such a helpful member that he tried to help me when I was messing with him, he went as far as taking his phone apart to help me. So before you call him a troll or whatever else you should check yourself, the forum won't miss you or your retarded questions. Most of you herbs prolly drool over his girl.
One more person give brian **** and ANY THREAD OR POST you make with a stupid question or comment will get jacked, I will personally make you look like a fool, even if it gets me banned. Go back to howard forums you failures.
I'd risk a ban for that one too, brian is a very helpfull guy are here. All he did was point out something that many of us would have also made fun off. Don't worry bri, we got your back

actually like one person said. its common sense to think something is wrong if something didnt rattle before but rattles now. so therefore it was a stupid question.
saying its a ridiculous question implies common sense.
maybe u need to rethink things before u speak since u practically contradicted urself. first saying there are no stupid question, but then agreeing that there are stupid questions here on XDA.
I agree both ways. Yea it is pretty obvious it shouldn't rattle, but you could have said it to him in a more polite manner, but if it was me I would of prolly posted a really degrading image or something.
i, too, love the subtle art of arguing.

@all:
There seems to be a significant amount of animosity of late in the Android related forums. I'm not certain as to why this is, nor do I want to hear any reason for justification; what I do know is that it is unacceptable.
XDA is about bringing together folks who have similar passions about mobile technology. As the forum is accessed worldwide, you will encounter all types of folks from different walks of life; some of these folks will be extremely technical, others not. In all cases, it is the responsibility of all members to remain respectful of one another. We all have different opinions, we do not all have the same level of knowledge, and some folks are looking to feel like they are learning while trying to contribute.
Show maturity and professionalism by responding with helpful and constructive information. There is absolutely no reason to respond in a rude tone or to make someone feel stupid ... it is not constructive and serves no purpose.
I would remind members that the best moderation is self-moderation.

It's 'ESPECIALLY'. There's no X in that word. Also 'relevance' not 'relevence'. I'm certain I'm missing one or two there, but this was just a quick glance. Since you seem to be all over propriety, I suggest learning to spell before criticizing others.
I like these forums, but GOD I'm getting sick of the self proclaimed topic police around here. The guy asked a legitimate question. There was no reason to jump all over him for it.

I am not here to agree with johnson's approach to this thread but I have to agree that this thread should not have been created in such forum. PM's are exactly how you communicate with other members and if after PMing said Member, he received info that he felt relevant to the forum, then he should post it. Just starting a thread to ask someone something like that is just a little much.
Loud noises!!!!
I am just tired of threads like this... then people backing up the justification of it being there.... then people going after the ones that get on the ones that post stupid sh*t like this....
I've been reading xda for a very long time and it just goes on and on and on, but this particular handheld seems to attract a butt load of self richous know nothings... and not noobs.. but know nothings... the retard to technical person ratio is just totally f*cked currently, makes me want to go back to hacking winmo phones or something, at least there the idiots let you know they were idiots up front.
and I don't give a big flying f if I can spell or not.. that is the weakest type of argument ever... you obvioulsy know what I'm saying... so I don't really care if you correct me or leave it be, it makes you sound as pompous as you are suggesting I am is all.

given... but at least I know my sh*t

Why all the hate? Kinda ridiculous.

You know I kinda debated about starting this thread but I finally read enough smartass-think-they-are-better-than-everyone-posts. Im a member on countless electonics forums with thousands of posts with the same user name I might add and this forum kinda tops them all as far as "rude people". Yes, I might be "newer" to these forums, but while most of you were in elementary school, I was working on computers, installing networks and doing competition car audio.
Now lets start.
Why were forums made? For the masses to gather and share information, ideas, buy & sell, meet others and just down right chat to one another. *And for people that got picked on in their school days and decide to be a jerk online because they want to feel better about themselves.*
It seems like almost every single thread I read there is someone that asks the "standard question" that has probably been answered numerous times and then you get the standard response. "Well if you would of read, you would know the answer." Instead of being a douche, you could of just typed the answer, gained more post counts and could of probably got your Thanks Meter up another notch.
I love the answer, "Thats what the search feature is for." Well I'm sure almost all of you have tried to search and maybe your search wasnt bigger than 3 letters which gets excluded or so many other queries come that dont get even come close to answering your question. Sometimes its like trying to find waldo in a book with really really big freaking pages.
Then the, "If you would of read the whole thread you would know the answer" response. Well jesus, do you guys realize how fast some of these threads move? Damn, I can make a post, go to bed, wake up and noticed during the overnight the thread gains 10+ pages. Now imagine you are someone new to this, you have read the stickies, done a few searches, got their phone rooted ok but then notice a bug so they ask the "standard question". Well when you have an ungodly amount of threads and an even bigger number of actual posts sometimes its like finding a needle in a haystack. When just asking a question (Which is what forums were made for) can sometimes save you hours of searching thousands of threads.
Some of the people on this forum just need to be patient and help people out, instead being an ASS. We were all newbies once. And we will all be newbies to some other subject in the future. "Can't we all just get along"
And before anyone does the standard flaming. No, this did not happen to me. Search my screen names for posts if you wish. I just hate seeing in almost every 500+ page thread were someone asks a question and the next few people have some sort of smartass answer.
Just be nice, answer the question and watch your Thanks Meter go up. Simple as that.
If people werent asking questions then these forums wouldnt even be a quarter of the size they are now.
Thanks for reading. Have a great day.
Also, thanks to all the Devs that have spent countless days and sleepless nights to help all of us have a more enjoyable experience with our phones.
Uhh, there are already a few threads talking about the same rants, next time search before you create a thread......
LMAO, ok sorry. I couldn't help myself,

Thanks bro, but you are right though, there is a little to much tension at times around here. I have been a member of this site for many years, I had another account but I forgot my name and password so I created this one about three years ago. My point is, I been coming here for over 5 years or so and I am on this site damn near every single day but I never post much if ever. I usually search for what I am looking for at best and then just move on while avoiding the stupid crap. I am also a member of sprintusers, ppcgeeks, androidforums and a few others and they all seem to have their fare share of idiots. Since xda is probably the largest site with the most traffic compared to the others I guess you run the risk of seeing more idiots here as well.
Well said sminker. If people do not like what people post they are just better off keeping it to themselves. Be part of solution not the problem.

Sir you are completely right. People can and will act completely different in this "Alternate Universe" than they will in real life. Why? Becuase they can and it makes them feel a little more "Alpha".
Hey I remember being new to a certain forum not this one though, and asking a simple question. The regular jerks of the forum proceeded to try to make me feel like an idiot. Needless to say my feelings weren't hurt but I guess it's that "Alpha Male" complex.
haha those jerks on the iphone-developers wont reply at all. i'm experiencing being a noob again with my ipad.
ps: any of you helpful xda people kno more than a thing or two about tinyumbrella and shsh/jailbreak stuff?

Offtopic: Talk about anything.

I would like to say sorry for my mindless outbursts.
It was not needed for me to react this way.
I feel that i have made a very bad example of myself, and i hope to correct that.
@stvmook
I apologize for insulting you and for my threats.
I do not however agree "that the semi-brick does not exist"
as i have proven from your own source that is does.
And i am no longer willing to discuss it with you.
At the mods sorry for bothering you and your valuable time.
At anyone i may or might have offended,
I apologize and hope that we can put this behind us and continue in a constructive manner.
Pyscho alert!!!!
No.. i realized what i did.
and i feel bad.
i'm not asking for any sympathy.
I just feel.. bad.

I am truly sorry for that. "hardly remember why now.."
Hope we can swift a beer one day. last one to the bottom must eat the cookie.
I just want to end the fighting.
I'm not sure if people are still, gona hate me after this.
Sometimes i don't act like i should i guess anger brings out the worst in of me.
And i learned that i severely need control it better.
I also didn't represent my self as a friendly South African very well neither.
Lets please let it go.
You seem sincere, and we're all human. All is forgotten. ;-)
oh BTW.. this post..
You are forgetting all SE system apps that legally bound to be protected for the developers, including the CAMERA. SE also has a legal responsibility to protect Apple's patent on Multitouch, which I know there is still argument if it is a hardware issue or a bootloader issue. Nonetheless SE still has a legal responsibility to enforce its agreements with partners made before the device ever hit the market. Period.

Cleared up alot for me.
Hey man, I'm not in any way insulting you with this post, just trying to offer some constructive thoughts. You are not stupid, but you have made some dumb decisions but hey, so have I. No harm in that as long as you take ownership of the mistakes(which you have). Just remember that there are some people here who have years of experience in the electronics field and we should all try to learn from their experience and not argue with them over what the internet says. Happy trails man!

I love the smell of resin core in the morning.

how about @Windst, huh? I think you owe me an apology. A whole thread too to every person's intelligence you insulted, suggesting them as insecure and ignorant. Nice to make a thread too, I think it's better off a signature than a whole thread.
Oh good...we all kissed and made out..! Moving on now..
This thread alone was ment to apologize.. if i had to pm XDA member 1 by 1 in the milions, i would never get anywhere.
Consider this thread my full on apology.
I think i covered that in OP.
At anyone i may or might have offended,
I apologize and hope that we can put this behind us and continue in a constructive manner.

Buddy.. relax. Now come on guys..
Lets please move on..
More important stuff to do here than my meanderings.
And you must admit.. that i was right about parts of Semi-brick debate.
And no one made that easy.
Errare humanum est!
Obrigado
Like i said.. it's something that will bother me for a long time.
The comments/pm's directed at me may be painfull,
but it will never be as bad as what my own mind will do to me.
I'm glad that XDA is full of intelligent caring people.
Sure life has it's hurt, it's how we move on.
gd step from u dude..like it alot
from now do ur best to help others and you will feel good
Just don't go shooting random people at a public school and everything will be just fine.
