I was browsing the OnePlus forums on their official forums, and saw a thread about word associations....basically, for those who don't know, just look at the post above yours, and then post the first word that comes to your head
i'll start:
Fun
In
We have off an topic thread section for this stuff...

Please post your questions in the "q&a" thread.
Please post your guides/roms/mods/kernels/contributions for the Evo in the "Development" thread.
Please post your general talk, sometimes questions/discussions in the "general" thread.
Please post your theme and apps releated posts in the "themes and apps" thread.
Please post your accessories (covers, screen protectors, etc...) in the "accessories thread.
I dont own an Evo yet, but im not new to android. I come here for a friend that is very new to android and I like to help. I understand this is a new phone so many people are flocking to it. But I honestly cant believe how many people are posting things in random places. The development thread looks like the general section. Its hard to even find what im looking for.
I know many mods are on it. But the rules of this site (stating what i said above in a professional manner) need to be stickied on all 5 threads for the time being. Hoping it cuts down on useless threads and cluttering of (personal opinion) the development thread.
I was going to post this in the dev thread, hoping people would read it. But i figured it would be hypocritical since this inst dev related.
Second post on the same topic.
No offence, but I'll stick the other one .

Right.
For one thing I am not a spammer, I asked a genuine question to which someone kindly replied, and now I can't read that reply. I had looked through the forum and found some information but wanted to know a little more.
I have never spammed this or any other forum. I have always tried to be constructive in my posts, unlike the many 'we hate se' posts, which quite honestly are a complete joke yet they don't seem to be deleted quite so quickly.
The reply to my post BTW contained a link to information I needed.
I am really dissapointed. I had found this forum and the members to be educational and entertaining, but I doubt I'll be sticking around now to be treated in this way.

Where did u post the original question?
never mind i found it posted in general
now see you say you looked around but i dont think you did as you may have seen the sticky at the top of the page that say please post questions in the Q&A thread.
in the future please put your questions in the correct forum
and while were on the subject
look at the thread you have started
i found
2 identical threads about the car charger fault
a question about hotmail posted in the general section
a question about mp3 distortion in the general section
a question about the stock keyboard and its issue with copilot posted in general section
a useful thread called 2.1 sucks. which was a rollback question posted in general
a thread about aosp rom and hd recording which shouldve been posted in the aosp discussion thread
a question about live wallpapers which is only in the Q&A section because i moved it there
a question about stuttering audio in 2.1 which was in general before i deleted it
then your jit question posted in general
so you clearly dont understand the rules
Sorry for posting this outside of the reviews thread, but this is just too funny!

Hi Everyone,
This is basically a repost, but I thought it would be more relevant here than the other forum I posted in.
I keep pretty up to date on things about our phone, so a few days ago I started a twitter account to announce various kernel and ROM updates that get released on this site (and some others), and to also tweet about various interesting development stories I hear about.
At the moment I'm only posting about the more popular releases so as not to spam too much, but if you think I'm missing anything please let me know! Check it out:

I hope this can be useful to some people
Dude, firstly this is a dev forum for developments, not for people to plug their twitter pages. If people are not allowed and warned for creating question topics about developments in here what makes you think it ok to post a topic plugging a twitter page?
Second, why would we visit your twitter page when we can visit our own dev forum and get the news quicker and in more detail?
Third, why use twitter at all, a blog like wordpress would be much better for what you doing.
[Edit] Been moved to general now, so all ok.

hi there,
regarding thread placement: i believed this "service" was pertinent exactly to people who read the development forums. i know if i read it i would use it (hence why i created it myself), and i personally don't read the general forums. sure it doesn't have any actual development creations, but it's directly related to the development topics in this forum. I think "you" are probably leaning a bit too much towards the letter of the law than the spririt, which is a shame.
regarding the rest of your angry post: my apologies, i failed to realise that you speak for everyone. i will start using the internet exactly as you suggest, again sorry for doing things wrong

Okay guys, it's been a bit relaxed in here up until now, but I've just had a clean up and not one single thread in this forum was in the right place. Once things start rolling in here (hopefully before too long) it can get very messy very quickly.
Remember, this forum is for development releases only. If you want to discuss something then post in General. If you want to ask something then post in Q&A. If you're releasing ROMs, tweaks, hacks etc. then post in here.
If you're unsure about something then ask first - I'm happy to answer any and all questions.
Thanks for your co-operation
Any chance for a huge cleanup? There are tons of posts about interop, making threads hard to follow.
