steve jobs is a horrible person - EVO 4G General

Anyone remember reading about THIS BULL$*!7??
That insanity has actually been implemented in the "free" ad supported game Wordfeud
I would gladly pay for the game, its a good game, but that bullcrap is not welcome on my phone.
I'm so disgusted with this right now I think I'm gonna take sick time for the rest of this day (kidding, but I am truly disgusted by this)

THIS
and THIS

Like in Minority report, where the ads know your name and follow you. Yay future!

Not sure why... But that article gives me the urge to punch small woodland creatures... Interesting...

Any app that implements this is shooting themselves in the foot. Yeah, they might get a few conversions out of it, but they'll put off far more people than they win over.

Must See!!! Amazing!!!!

My friends sisters cousins boyfriends dog sitter just got back from the swampy region in Antartica, and you'll never guess what he brought back! A 15 inch widescreen iPhone which runs windows mobile! Other than that, it quad boots from those two monsters, to run the psp platform, linux, windowsVista, and atari! PLUS THATS NOT ALL!!! Its powered by a hampster in a wheel which come with a custom water bottle (for more SPEED)!!! And just when I thought it couldnt get any better, THERE WAS MORE!!!! When you hit the red button located on the atari screen, your able to use it as a can opener, screw driver, and hair drier! Plus we just downloaded a freeware program which unlocked the MICROWAVE & TOASTER OVEN FUNCTION! This thing is also equipped wth 22 inch Giovani spinners and two kenwood 12inch subs. Its also a good babysitter for those long nights out! Im no tech, but Ill post pics in 3564 years! Keep asking thou, I may do it tomorrow when I get off work from the multi million dollar company I own called Microsoft! By the way Can some one please tell me how to get coverflow to work with s2p while still having the artists listed as seperat folders?
I fig Id get a few hundred replies this way! Fu** you t.kilgore86, phillips_tech, and TechRev! I hope you all got to iPhone he** and steve jobs rapes you apple style! Sorry for the bluntness fellows!
What the heck is the point of this thread? You've posted pretty much the same thing in other threads and yet decide that it was important and funny enough to make a new thread, I disagree. You are spamming the forum just as much as the people you listed.
Stop spamming our forums and don't post on here again.
Apparently the full might of the Mod needs to be exercised.
No kiddn'

Why not ALL?
Why not ban them all? That would solve it!

Sorry, but I have to laugh! I thought it was witty
See the point
Im not disagreeing with the mods. This guy should have been banned. But I dont disagree with vogue_trip either. I mean look at it. This guy made up a post that everyone knew was fake. Apparently used three screen names to do it, and its still not closed. Its pulled alot of time away from peoples threads that were serious. XDA is by far the best sight around. Anyone with a PPC comes here for every answer there is. The guy who started all of this is a joke and in my opinion doesnt deserve the benefits from this amazing sight. I noticed he was doing similar things @ ppcgeeks as well. So I dont disagree with this guys frustration but h went about it all wrong. So Im sticking with my opinion, 2 posts or a milliion. They all need ban. They dont deserve the excellent services on this site.

You guys have no sense of humor. That was one of the funniest posts I've seen on here in forever and you want to ban him?
Give me a break. We need more of that to break the air of seriousness over here. vogue_trip's ban will only serve to promote the lack of humor over here.

Open Source -
We are allowed to "open" a can of whoop-ass on the "source" of the mods!
hahaha, this was f'ing hilarious!
fav part: "I really liked Google. This sucks, I knew this would happen."
first and only time I've ever felt sympathetic with hitler...haha
if google doesn't do something to rectify the situation that they've just created, they're dead to me. do no evil? I hate hypocrisy more than evil. at least be honest about about your bastard company. I hope the n900's dev community takes off quick
Ok now we need one with sadam hussien and bin laden
Note that CyanogenMod is built on top of whatever the google android dev team produces.
So it's not correct to say that CyanogenMod does more than all of them combined, when in fact he mostly puts together, polishes and refines stuff other people write.
And a good chunk of those other people are people on Google's payroll.
Carry on.
Okay, my whole family just watched this and they aren't even into the whole rom scene. We laughed so hard we were crying!
Very awesome video!!

hehe, glad this made you guys laugh with the angered we recieved today.
I had some time to go back and adjust the timing and change 1 line, go see it again
its to funny great job. my gurl was like wtf maynn, to me. haha.
That video is the next rick roll!

Ranting/Venting

How about people just keep their mouths shut ? Or do something *useful* vs just complaining.
Had to sell my Phone on ebay. Sorry Guys! its selling at this moment!
Status
So I imagine that even though the other thread has been closed, once the devs achieve root, you guys will let us know here at xda correct.
The other threads are full of a bunch of dumb a$$ people that just want to complain that someone else hasn't rooted their phone yet. Here is a thread that was made for them to come and yap their face and they say nothing.
I find this thread to be ridiculous (yet quite funny)!! I have been a part of "the community" for a very long time and I have never ONCE seen so many damn people complain that something wasn't getting done! Seriously People!! If you want root so damn bad I have 2 suggestions for you, DO IT YOURSELF or go buy a new phone, which ever you choose, shut your face unless you have something productive to say! (hey the title of this thread says rant so that is what I am doing )
Anyway, if anyone ever figures out root on this bad boy I will be grateful, if I ever have anything to offer I will be helpful, and I will otherwise keep my mouth shut. Thanks Everyone, especially the Dev team and the morons that inspired this rant.
btw, I'm pretty sure I blocked over half of these morons from different sites over the years for similar behavior
I want to tell Verizon what a cheap, lying, no-good, rotten, four-flushing, low-life, snake-licking, dirt-eating, inbred, overstuffed, ignorant, blood-sucking, dog-kissing, brainless, ****less, hopeless, heartless, fat-***, bug-eyed, stiff-legged, spotty-lipped, worm-headed sack of monkey **** they are.

QFT! People and their EXPECTATION of root. Way to ruin it for everyone

Wonder why devs are snippy?

They have to deal with this crap.
If people are using a vibrant and still *****ing about the Vibrant's "slow" development, sell your damn phone and get a nexus one off ebay.
Wow that is sad.
Sent from my vib
this is really sad. It's a shame there's people like this in the community that don't understand how much work goes into these ROMs and are just expecting a handout in the timleiest of matters.
It's amazing how immature people can act these days.
wow really? some people's children....sad
Are you kidding me? That to me would be reason alone to stop working on it altogether.
MOD EDIT: Personal attack removed
Well depending on his stand point, you never know. He's definitely a D bag.
As far as CM6 for Vibrant, if it truly isn't experiencing any progress, the dev really should pass it on to someone else. I don't know much about the openness of CM6. Can anyone just grab the source and start working on it or is the source only available to the one dev?

Wes is working on it.
plus even if noone was working on it, that is not a reason to be an asshole or Dbag.
the worst part is that there are people that follow this Dbag.
@anderdroid: before posting out of ur ass please do some research. Thank You.
Hey chillax I wasn't starting any flame wars. What is with this forum.
And I said he WAS a D Bag, period. I didn't say there was an exception to that. All I was saying is he may possibly have a valid point about the source code being passed on if it is not being progessed upon.
However, if Wes is working on it, then okay, just tell me that. No need to flame. Christ.
I consider developing ROMs myself and then think meh why would I do it for people that flame so hard and fast. Don't deserve ROMs.
What a ****.

Cat's out the bag (this is for the entire community)

Welcome, thank everyone for taking the time to read this. I have been a busy body in the shadows trying to do something for a member of our Community. Let me start from the beginning. I'm sure everyone here is familiar with user/developer PTFDMedic. He created the Midnight roms, among other things. He's a well respected member of the community, a friend to me, and one of the strongest persons I have ever met in my life. He is also very open and honest about his personal experiences in life be it the bad, the good, and the personal. He blogs @ a site I suggest everyone read over once. www.lostandtired.com. He works his butt off taking care of his family, his wife and three autistic boys (which troubles me to even type it like that because he takes care of his THREE BOYS, the fact that they have autism does NOT define them).
Now the point of this, this all started the same day I wrote my rant about not getting my Nexus, on the way home I was thinking about reading that he sold his Epic to pay for car repairs on his van to keep bringing his children to speech therapy. I felt kinda bad that I have an Epic, brand new, and now I'm about to be holding onto the Nexus S. I'm by no means rich I just chose to pass on other things and save to get the phones I want. But still all in all at the end of the day I have two different phones, both top of the line, and here is Rob doing all the things necessary to raise his family and (if you don't develop for the phone/theme anything) it's hard to understand but when you are working on the code and have to pay close attention to what you are doing, you kind of loose sight of all the things that were nagging at your on the back of your mind. I serious mistake in the code and you can potential brick your device. So even though developing can create it's own headaches, and oh yes it can, it also helps you escape all the other things on your mind. That being said, I felt really bad that Rob was loosing his outlet, both to develop and his connection with you guys here on the forums.
Soon as I got home I set up an account and stuck in a mere $50 and got determined to translate that $50 into a new phone. I contacted my friends @ ACS and told them what was up. Withing no time we had $125.00 in there. Next the Bonsai team (can't thank you guys enough) joined in and we got $250.00 in the account. This ofcourse is the going rate on an Epic on ebay. While I was doing all of this (completely behind the scenes it was going to be a total suprise when I purchased the phone from Ebay, checked it to make sure it worked out all right, then mailed it to Rob who was clueless all along) I start noticing a few posts where he says that he really wants the Nexus S, he would love to develop on a device that doesn't have TW.
We finally got the cash together to buy the Epic and we all had us another conversation, why stop here. Why not push the envelope and let this man have his dream, and get a Nexus S. That would put us from 100% to 50% of the phones cost and two different development teams have put in a large amount so why not ask the users. They can and deserve to be a part of this anyway. Perfect, but it ruined one thing. Rob would def find out about this, going public. So I've notified Rob about the current. $250, the whole ordeal that we have been creating, everything. And then asked the mods permission for this post, which was granted first thing this morning. Now we are here and you're caught up with me. Have a heart, and give back to a man who has given to you!
By all means only donate if it is within your means!!! Rob was totally against us spending our money on him so Rob, if your reading this, your not allowed to post in protest!!!
All previous donations have gone to my account, that money is forwarded, and now the donate button here goes directly to Rob! He'll have to keep me posted on progress from here on.
Keep the good work Rob...
I hope to contribute if I can but this is definitely for a good cause! Your doing a good thing dreams as well as bonsai and ACS!

BTW, make sure to click the "update total" button under the donation amount BEFORE you fill everything else in.
good luck, rob. Midnight Roms were my rom of choice on the Epic. Just swapped into my Nexus S today and I will spread the word via twitter rt's !
Though i do not own a Nexus S nor an EPIC. (G2 user) But i definitely would love to return something to the developers. No matter who it is. Two of my friends have the Nexus S and i might bag one next month. Hell tomorrow morning first thing...3 Donations coming your way!
To the selfless developers here at XDA - Kudos to you, you guys are the real deal!
I am out of work, have a car payment, 3 kids and bills up the a**, but I gave $1. Every little bit will help. And hell I don't even have an epic or nexus.
