I thought we are trying to hack some cell phones here. Who the hell do you think you are making a thread "in android development" that is trying to ban someone! This thread should be taken down ASAP!

Im not supporting this person doing this **** but try to understand this is for android development of the droid x not some kind of blog

and what do you call what he is doing do you see the 2000 views he has had on his bs thread about a droid x rom that makes everyone that is working hard to put something out look bad man we cant let him keep getting away with this its not his first time nor on his first device go read the 100+ post on his dominate rom post in your android dev forum i dont see you over there telling him to stop
The mods have stepped in now i dont know how to remove a thread but i would be more than happy to do so i appologize if i offended you but that kid had to go man

Well Im going to be blunt about this He is a sick **** that likes getting his kicks off by posting fake threads, he is a dumb ass, a lier, and a ****. But even if he gets baned and he will because he has got baned before he will make a new screen name and do it all over again

It is pretty pathetic that his posts go to such an extent that he even puts lengthy changelogs for roms he never even makes.
I think we should all cut him a break and let him stay. I feel kinda bad for a kid thats got nothing else to do. I mean come on, its got to be really bad for him if thats what he calls fun. So sad....Im actually gonna cry a bit. Nevermind I got over it.

This keeps getting weirder. Looking at OP's post history, and I can't help but think that it's actually the same kid. I truly think we're dealing with a troubled young person who has unsupervised 'net access.

This should be moved to "General" forum or something. It honestly doesn't belong in the Dev section. Although it was entertaining.

**** all of you haters...especially arronjb and andre ****face.....

im not the same kid lol
what about my post history ok i have said some stupid things not understanding (Efuse) but i admit i dont understand and i take the things that people say and learn from them. i never claim to work on a project i dont have the know how to complete or even start.
never have i been a burdon to this community being slightly ignorant in the programing and hardware aspect of these devices and os is not a crime and i have always felt the it was incouraged to learn here. so thats what im doing learning im not a devoloper and never have claimed to be one i have offered up my device for testing because i can afford to replace my device if it bricks because i want to see the droid x become as custamizable one day as my poor excuse for an android eris but w/e man think what you will
i am normaly a silent observer and donator so step off bro

This kid really does need the boot, he does nothing but bring drama to this community and this site. He needs to be banned not only for what he's done, but what he might do in the future, he's a virus. There are far too many good people here that want to learn and share info with each other, but this kid basically ruins it for the rest of us. Please do us all a favor and get rid of him(and get rid of him again when he makes a new screen name).

Booooot him!
Sent from my DROID X using XDA App

This isnt the way to handle the situation guys........you are feeding his addiction, how much you want to bet he's sitting there mashing the f5 button anxsiouly waiting to see what everyone is saying about him? After reading his thread about making a Nexus One kernel, I do agree it is getting out of hand but this truly is a job for the mods, the community IS his addicition, and all we are doing is feeding it. I wish I had a solution but after typing a few and then deleting them while typing this post I realize I am at a loss. Even if we all agreed to ignore him, what about the people who are visiting xda for the first time??? I have been visiting the Droid X forum daily since its inception here at xda(day oner), and it saddens me greatly to see this lunacy has spread from the Incredible forum which I have also frequented for some time.

You got drama in my Android development!
I would also support the deletion of this thread.

Haha. i remember this guy from when I had an N1, and yet I'm so naive that he got me again. His act does kind of put a damper on things, but I agree with those who think that he is less of ****ty person than he is a troubled person in need of attention. In fact, while this thread obviously doesn't belong in the Dev forum (or xda at all for that matter), I find this situation fascinating. He would make a great case study for my Master's thesis.

I'm leaving.

I'm sorry to inform everyone but I'm leaving xda. I will update my work to work with the new CWM and that will be all.
Xda is getting old. Feels like I'm back in high school. To many people whining about froyo. No one knows how to use the search button. No one appreciates the work people do and demand changes. I'm sick of repeating myself cause retards don't know how to read. Mods never around and when they show up the come riding in on a high horse. I'm sure theres other reasons I'm forgetting but don't really care.
This site started off as a hobbie and became a constant headache. I have a life outside of here unlike some members and its time I start to live it again.

Count me in, XDA is like a zoo now. At first it was awesome, but with the influx of people asking repetative questions it has gotten old fast. Maybe hopefully (don't count on it) official froyo will help this but I doubt it. Its time to move on, I appreciate all of the supporters of my themes and work I have done for mystery. Best of luck to everyone else, I don't know how the hell you rom devs can tolerate the stupidity of people but props. Oh and one final thought: ACS will continue to receive my work and support, simply because both rob and k0nane appreciate it. So don't think you won't hear from me again, just probably not directly on XDA.
Goodbye.

No other forum on this site has even close to the amount of issues that the Epic forum has. It's purely pathetic that people can't help rather than set everyone back constantly. Go read any thread on the Vibrant section; hardly any noobs asking stupid ****ing questions over and over.

I completely agree with you guys in the shambles that the epic forums are and I'm not even a dev. I'm glad you guys will continue to theme and if you move to a new forum or site I would love to be able to be able to get your themes firsthand. I would suggest spj since they have a ton of mods that will issue infractions and bans for not searching and violating forum rules. Thanks for all that you have done for my phone

Not everyone was a noob. Some read the threads and used the search option before they ever posted a thing. I really wish more people would do that and appreciate the sometimes rather difficult problems that the ROM makers go through. They could be making a lot more money in the industry but rather are here helping out the community. That I can never forget and always appreciate.

It's hard to read this and not wonder how you have not already come to understand that all forums have the problems you are citing. This happens every day in any forum you can name on any and every topic possible.
It's sad that you can't separate the vocal minority from the silent majority. Instead you make overreaching general statements about the state of the XDA forums based on your observation of maybe 20 users who whine about updates and are too lazy to search.
Honestly, if you are unable to separate the signal from the noise and your skin is too thin to take a handful of annoying people demanding something from you then we are all probably better off with your departure.

Noob **** is a problem on every forum.

A nice post to pat yourselves on the back, I'm sure it would mean more if the devs actually put this thread out.

The haters are clearly missing the point of this thread. My guess is that none of them have donated, so they don't want to feel insecure about others donating.
I've seen threads like this serving the cause and living successfully on boards of many other devices.
Only on the Atrix forums, it turns into a smartass contest, just like all the other threads.

Hello and welcome to the Shift world .

I can assure you my knowledge of HTC's and Android is alot better than you'd think.
Just because you may know alot about 1 device does not mean you'd be a good moderator. I quote MikeChannon here.
Moderating is not about having an expert knowledge of the device, it is about encouraging members to follow (and in some cases enforcing) the rules, whilst maintaining a pleasant, supportive atmosphere within the forum.

He was just joking man, you really should hang out on IRC more.
And yes that is OTAking71 in that picture.
LOL

So, I pondered even posting but I feel that this needs to be addressed.
Since when has xda started taking nominations for moderator?
Also, I agree with Crump, and FDXRider. It's nothing personal against vicodan but, if you polled all the shift users you wouldn't be voted in, also, what has our new mod Andy even done?
He introduced himself...
That's it...
Why are people so up in arms about a moderator we haven't seen in action yet?
Lastly... The fact that a mod does or doesn't have the device is so irrelevant... Even if he had the device, would he be able to offer some new found advice on the shift??? Probably not, this isn't a shot at the mod either, as the shift community is rather intelligent.
In my experience mods are here to keep the rules in check and make sure our section is orderly. If he isn't/wasn't doing this I could see where you are coming from with switching mods, but, again, he hasn't done anything other than listen to vicodan complain that he isn't the mod...
Welcome to the shift section again Andy! Good to have you as a mod!
Edit: I also want to ask this... If the device that andy uses has/had a fully functional ROM, mod, etc. that could be ported to the shift and he offered to help port, would you still be opposed to him not owning a shift? I certainly wouldn't...

Let Me Put My Shift In U

I've seen a lot of bashing on xda about the mods. We are all human and all have ways of dealing with things. But I agree that a moderator should have a good understanding of the rules and enforce if need be. One rule I've seen go out the door on xda is enforcing the GPL on kernels. Most of the mods don't enforce this and after speaking to the GNU/GPL webmaster about this he is quite disappointed in how online websites don't value GPL anymore as much as they use to. If you distrubite a rom, of course it has a kernel in it. Even if it's not your kernel you are required to post a kernel source link to the kernel source because you are distrubing that kernel binary. Look at how many threads there are that don't have kernel source links.

I can't really describe how I feel with words.

We never worked together but we worked on the same device. The EVO forums were like a dev family, and we lost a member.
RIP buddy.

I still can't believe it.......My thoughts and prayers go out to his family!
I talked to Diablo a few times throughout the years and I will say this about him. Every time I talked to him, I could sense the love he had for all of this! For his contributions, his ROMs and just to be part of all of this! The guy loved Android and he loved helping people!
He would help anyone at any time no matter what! It didn't matter if you had a problem with someone on his team or vice versa, he only cared about helping you. He wanted to see the community grow and wanted to be part of it.
Last time I talked to him, I was helping him get setup so he could compile some ROMs from source and maybe add some mods at a later date. We talked about Android and the community as a whole. Joked around a bit and that was it.........I can't believe that was the last time I would talk to him.
This morning I logged on to Google+ and to my surprise I saw the news that he had passed away
Diablo, you will be missed dude!

Diablo was a great guy and I'm proud to of called him a friend and a team mate. His passion for android and learning and sharing was inspirational.
Mad love for you brother. May you find the peace that was lacking in life and rest easy knowing you touched so many of us with your open mind and giving nature.

Thank you for this thread papasmurf.
Diablo67, you will surely be missed my friend. I had so much fun testing roms & helping the tiny bit I did. You were always there to help me & everybody else. RIP my friend.
Thoughts & prayers to your family & loved ones.

I never got a chance to work with Diablo directly but he showed how much he loved android in the Roms he put out. I ran so many of his Roms, people like him is what made the EVO Community so great. Hard to believe our friend is gone. He will be missed. My condolences to his friends and family. Rest in peace bud.

When I got my first Og I found his work to be some of the best. He inspired me to start working with android. Later I got to work with him on a couple projects and it was always fun and games. He was always around to help anyone with their problems even personal problems. No matter if things were going bad for him he was still there for us.
Diablo67 was one of the greats. A great artist, tweaker, modder, friend, and man. I could have never asked to know a better person. He will live on in our hearts and our Evo's. I know longer use mine as a primary phone but it is still running one of his ROMs.

This totally shatters me. I don't even know how to be right now about this. Diablo was one of my best friends on here. We were in several Dev teams together, but that's nothing. He was just one of the few people, along with Swiper and others that I truly considered a friend. Even while I haven't been so active on XDA recently, we still had a lot of PM conversations. I'll miss him a lot. Much more than i can put into words.
Go with God, my friend ((((((((

I'm at a loss for words.. He was a good friend and an excellent mentor and I'm proud to say I've worked with him. I only wish I had spoke to him more in the last few months.. May he rest in peace.

Well I have been in touch with his girlfriend and planning on sending a donation to help out. If anyone else would like to do the same I will give you the info so you can. His girlfriend has no PayPal so it will need to be sent via snail mail. No one has asked me to do this but I want to help him as he would have done for any of us.
Brother your body may be gone but you will always live in our hearts.

That is sad news.
Spoke with him several times and he was always so much fun.
He will be missed.
R.I.P. my friend.

You will be very much missed . Thank you for all that you shared, I learned a lot from you.

I never really got the chance to talk to him much, but from the few times I did here on XDA he was kind and always patient with questions. He was the type of dev that would make it a priority to fix a problem of a single user, or help them troubleshoot.
Also, he taught quite a few of you who helped me learn more about Android and everything that goes with it. So indirectly, he taught more people than he knew.
I'm going to miss seeing his name around here, though his works will live on. All in all, fantastic Dev/chef/modder.
