Phones that have no place having a forum in here have them, but the Atrix 2 doesn't? why? it's the successor of a great phone. Even if it's not the best phone ever, it still deserves a forum.
The question you should be asking is "why is this thread here? Why am I double posting into different sections of a forum including the dev forum? Why am I not using this thread?"
Because I've already used that thread, and we still don't have forums.
The "Occupy Atrix" approach isn't going to help you! Give XDA a chance. The phone just came out, has a relatively small following at the moment, and there are many phones which could use their own forum. Comments like "Phones that have no place having a forum in here have them" will get you nowhere!

I've never heard of the admins putting a forum up by force so you might want to rethink your strategy. I want the forum just as bad as you do but apparently its gonna take some time........and alot more votes!

I don't mind Atrix 2 threads in the Atrix forums, but I do NOT like the whining. If you have not voted, go do it. If you have then please have some courtesy and STFU about it.
I rarely do meta commentary, but enough already.

I know the Atrix 2 was just recently released but they have forums for devices that aren't even being sold yet. They have a forum for the Sony tablet that has a total of 3 bs threads in the dev section. To me it's xda being biased towards a phone that's only being sold in the states. That's only my opinion of course, but it's been long enough. I honestly hope that requests keep coming.

XDA makes threads based on PERCEIVED popularity. The Toshiba Thrive did not have a forum for a while after release. (Along with others)
Get off your discrimination crap and learn to:
A) use another site
B) use the atrix forum with a [atrix 2] tag
C) vote and wait.
I'm not trying to be rude but these threads are annoying and serve no purpose but to make Atrix 1 users wish you would just leave our boards. If you want to discuss your phone here that's cool. If you just want to annoy people please do so elsewhere.

it's "Because I've already used that thread, and we still don't have forums."
Lets just stop feeding this thread and just simply report it - along with any other ones that pop up. This is the ATRIX 1 Forum. Not the ATRIX 2 Forum, so all those with the A2 - have a little respect and stop cluttering OUR Forum.
Oh lord. Guys, just stop whining, all of you. The A2 is only gonna get a forum if it gets enough votes, simple as that. So figure out a way to generate the necessary votes and make it happen. As for the "this is the Atrix forum, not Atrix 2", c'mon guys, its still an Atrix. I understand ur tired of the whining, I get it, but u know you guys would be bitter if you were in our shoes. But either way, whining is never a good look.

Post counts isn't the point here also the way I see is that the more posting you have the higher the chances of you making an ass of yourself. In this case which is found to be true. I guess for the members like myself that has been here longer the June 2010 know that there is an EVO General sub forum. I believe in the saying, "It's better for people to think that you are stupid then to open your mouth and confirming it.

Is it just me or is there WAY too many ROMs now? To be honest, options are always good, but it seems there are so many different ROMs being pushed out and that worries me. It seems the Development thread is getting polluted with all these roms. Most of them seeming useless, at least to me. But what do I know?
Note: Maybe I'm getting tired of waiting for TW
This thread is D.O.A. People complain when there's too little activity in the dev section, but I've never seen anyone complain about too much activity...
Just because TW is your favorite team, doesn't mean they should be the only ones posting roms.
This has got to be the most BS complaint the vibrant forum ever had. Well that's just what I think don't know about what the others will say.

<rant> For god's sake can we please stop with posting threads like this? Its of absolute no benefit to the community. Like stated previously by tgc first people complain the community is dying nwo that its thriving yall want to complain more? If you think something in the dev thread is of no use to you then dont bother with it, choices are good, and i for one am glad that there are new roms being put out there by new devs/dev teams that are giving us more quality stuff to play with.
So once more I implore not only you but everyone to please stop posting these useless threads. </rant>
I for one am a fan of choice. Whether it be aosp, sammy themes or ports. Bring em on. If you like a single choice that's well received, I hear they call it an iphone

Ok guys/gals here it goes, Hopefully, this can become a sticky
Im gonna explain why I have decided to create this thread, and then I'm gonna explain what this thread will be all about.
First, why did I create this thread? I have noticed lately alot of members who like to get a little chatty in certain threads...whether its in the general section, dev section or themes & apps. Sometimes we can get a little carried away with our talking and it usually ends up with another member(s) telling these 2,3 sometimes 4 people to stay on topic and stop flooding the thread..Rightfully so. Sometimes, it also goes as far as a mod having to come into the thread, spend time cleaning it up, and then hand out bans, warnings, etc etc...rightfully so.
So, whats this thread all about? It's simple...THERE ARE NO TOPICS! we as XDA members sometimes like to talk..period! Within this thread we can talk about whatever we want...your fav rom, your fav theme, your fav theme with fav rom, other phones, cars, tv's, dslr camera, your job, where you live, post pictures of random cool things..etc etc.
The great thing about this is there will be NO going off topic, no warnings about going off topic, no being sent on vacation etc etc. This DOES NOT mean you now have the right to disrespect other members. This simply means you are now free to talk about whatever it is you want. Just as if we were all sitting around a camp fire with a beer in each hand...good ol' conversation!
The only thing I can ask of this is remember every member will and has there own opinion about anything that may get mentioned in this thread...PLEASE respect that! Don't be rude to other members, don't start fighting. This thread is our chance to finally go "off topic" without any harm.
This thread can be fun...I noticed alot of people who like to talk...so lets do this.
ps. Just because I created this thread does not mean in any way that I am gonna run it or be in control...oh helll no lol. This thread is for all of us to run and have fun. I suspect we are all mature enough to keep this thread fun, clean, stupid (you know how you get stupid sometimes, but it's funny lol) funny, and also help other people out with anything that gets talked about.
So, what do you guys say? Lets do this or what?
Now, im off for the night/early morning...my little girl will not go to sleep no matter what I do. It's been playtime for her for the last 17 hours or so...she is like that dang energizer bunny....I seriously don't get it...she needs sleep! lol

Help to XDA Dev " task650 " whose FIVE YEARS OLD DAUGHTER WAS DIAGNOSED with CANCER
Here's is his (task650's) announcement :
task650 said:
I've made announcements as to why there hasn't been any updates lately in all of my threads bro. I haven't had the time due to my 5 year old daughter being diagnosed with cancer. We've recently started her treatments. There will be updates coming sometime soon. Every time I think I get a chance I end up having to deal with more important issues lately.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
The reason of this post is to raise the awareness among the XDA users about the "task650" situation . I am asking YOU an XDA user or visitor to donate as much money as you can to the "task650. "
His baby girl is diagnosed with cancer and I want YOU to help her to fight this uneasy battle! The medical treatments for her sickness are very expensive and by donating even ONE dollar, YOU will help this five years old girl to win over the cancer! I am not writing this on behalf of "task650, " it is my personal initiative! Being as a member of XDA forums and Android community in general, I feel that it is my responsibility to help the people who are in need as never before.
Here is the link for donations:
Paypal donation email: [email protected]
To "task650": brother, your daughter will get better, especially when there are so many people who are praying for her! Please forgive me for my personal initiative if I offended you by any means!

I begged The_Scotsman for an Off-Topic subforum for the Epic but was told no other device has that and they were not going to start a precedent here. There is one general off-topic thread for Android and that's it. So we are stuck with off-topic posts in General. Shouldn't prevent people from helping out though.

It takes requests to head moderators to have a new forum made. There is a main off-topic forum here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=261
But I don't think you will get the exposure this needs. It is more troublesome when 10 people make new threads on "How to stop OTA notifications" rather than threads like this but that doesn't seem to irritate the same people as a single thread like this does.
Thanks for informing us of this terrible situation. Hopefully XDA as a whole can have a bigger impact on this little girl and her family, than we will ever know!

Don't post them in the first place is the easy answer. Call me crazy but when I come to the Epic General section I expect to read about general epic topics not some vote for me threads, help me with my family issues I created, or donate to me, etc. All the nonsense just drives folks away.
I am sorry, but all I see in this thread is a lot of heartless, selfish assholes.
The subject of the thread CLEARLY indicated that it is not related to your device, so guess what... DON'T OPEN IT. Real simple. Instead you come in here to *****.
I wish the best to task650 and his family.

No kidding! I understand getting frustrated by an off topic post from time to time, but when it is something like this, deal with it. XDA is supposed to be a community. I don't know about you, but in my "communities" we help others when we can. Like the Milkman said, the title was very clear. If the topic is of no interest to you, keep it moving.
Oh don't mind Digiblur, he punches homeless people in the face for asking him for food. The nerve of them interrupting him while he is walking. That is not what he started out walking for.
What the heck is wrong with you people! I bet if it was your son/daughter you'd have NO PROBLEM with this thread being here! Give the dude a break alright he is trying to help this guy, who can clearly use if nothing else some support.... people like y'all is why this country is going down the toilet and it makes me sick... but keep posting its cool... alls your doing is keeping it near the top of the first page, and for that, thanks!

I get where this guy comes from, he has a point. Then again, just like with EVERY other friggin post that the resident forum police go into to talk their crap... if you don't like it, don't fking click it! Don't read it! Most of all, if you have nothing nice to say, don't say anything at all!
Its not hard.
Man That sucks if I had a job I would donate. But for the guy who thinks there needs to be a different spot for this thread then contact the admin of the forum and ask for an entire Subforum for Charities.

I feel like the way sites like this and rw hide this device are preventing development. What is it going to take to change the way this device is hidden? Will more people whining and driving up the post count help? That is a completely serious question about why we are ignoring a device with great hardware and an unlocked bootloader.

Gross. If I get an infraction for posting a free, useful site that doesn't require registration in a thread that is buried and rarely used, then this site is backwards. I'm not worried about it. There are devs that create their own forums and link to them in their signature with no problems.
There is whining and demanding in every thread, so that's kind of a lame excuse. The Amaze thread, 70% of the members/devs are whiners lol. People really need to get off their high horse. If devs don't like questions, then they don't have to answer. All of this flaming and infractions is ridiculous. Even more preposterous are those that worry about infractions for doing nothing wrong.

PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT!
Lack of development due to lack of developers with the device. More exposure happens when more developers have the device.
