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.

Agreed,i think its just Epic forums because Vibrant's xda forums are more organized and mod does a better job.

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.
ACS ftw.

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

Ah sad to see you go bro.
Thanks for all the time you put into your work dude.
Your welcome back anytime. Well by me atleast.

don't forget that you to were once noobs and your questions probably irritated some one. thanks for what you have given and sorry to see you go.

Holla JK, Man i wonder why ppl even feed guys that ask questions they are tired of hearing or whine about something in xda,just ignore them lol.

SemiGamer and Sh0wNuf, you two guys among very few others have been the epitomy of helpful and useful users on this forum, and I for one have always had a deep respect for both of you ever since the Epic forums were in their infancy. If there were a thousand more users like you guys, none of this would be necessary. Thanks for the support, I know I speak for mystery as well when I say it has been much appreciated.

bye bye guys

Take it easy guys ...You've both done great things for the Epic and i'm sure no one will forget it. Thanks for everything you've done.

Stupid noobs...
Sucks u guys have to go..
But if you insist...
sent from my Epic 4G

Thank you guys for all you've done, love the themes and it sucks you guys will be leaving. Wish you both the best and hopefully someway... somehow, i will find your updated themes.

Damn I hate to see this type of **** happen,,,your work has been great,and people do care...I remeber being a noob when I had a Moment and was over at sdx.But I never asked 1 question,I did alot of reading and now I build ROMs,if only people would just read and search I think this would stop the headaches and reposts...Sorry,but I wish you the best,anyone thats leaving.

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.

Sick of ______________ ??? Are you leaving ?? post here to keep the forum cleaner

I've seen plenty of threads where xyz member posts that they're leaving. Some members will be missed, others, well, others = who ?? anyhow... it clutters up the forum quite a bit when members keep repeatedly posting that they're leaving. If you're leaving, please just go and stop cluttering up the fora w/ "I'm leaving because I got butt-hurt"...
Post in this thread if you're leaving so we can keep the rest of the forum un-cluttered and drivel free.

Your post doesn't help but add to the non-sense added to this forum...
End thread.
Everyone just wait for official 2.3 and relax for now. New developers will arrive and make awesome roms along with some current devs. This phone is far from dead, I was using a moment up until 2 weeks ago and I had a fully functional 2.2.2.

really ?? have u seen the forum lately ?
you have 4 posts.. the "I'm leaving" threads can be consolidated into this one where people can ignore 'it' if they choose to instead of sifting through "them" to find interesting material.
YOUR post was off topic and I would appreciate your 'side seat moderating' in a different forum and your off topic drivel kept out of my thread. 2 members have already thanked me for this. I'm sure others agree.
/off topic rebuttal

Sick of work. I'm leaving early.

All these threads about leaving should be deleted because they are all off topic... Even though this is the general section it should be focused on the general topics about phones "Epic" not how this forum should be run.
I agree they shouldn't be posting but making a thread for them to rant doesn't help.
It's also funny that you think you're "greater" than me because you have more post.

You now have 5 post, 2 of which were used to troll a guy with over 600. What that tells me is the he participates in the forum, and doesn't suck it dry with needless dribble. Plus you're getting a different device anyway.
By the way, I added the 3rd thanks to the OP.

I'm leaving this forum because everyone is attacking me because this thread is useless and they won't admit it. I didn't contribute to this forum because there wasn't any development for my old phone.

DUDE the moment was defected from the manufacture why do you think their was so many complaints that led to end of the production. which we(including me and rest of smart people) got the FCC and BBB involved.
It had so many lock-ups its, data lockups to be exact and was a dangerous product.
Nothing was stable. POINT BLANK

XDA need's a new Rule.
"User must be either 3week's old or obtain at least 100 post before making a thread.(this doesn't include Q&A Section) Only circumstance is to PM a mod and request upgrade if your a dev."

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.

Or we could discuss your intelligence, or rather lack there of. I mean really, I use my Android while driving my BMW, why not start a thread on that? The forum rules are very clear: ONLY threads listing roms, kernels, etc. are allowed here. Simple disregard for forum rules & organization. THIS is why people don't bother to read threads before asking questions, they are cluttered with nonsense. The posting rules are in place for a reason : to keep useless BS post out of the forums we go to for important stuff. Posting this was either a noob mistake or an idiotic move on behalf of the op.

I actually found this thread useful.
Seeing how rom-devs are dime-o-dozen these days, to know Peter was moving from NS to NS4G , answers a lot of my questions, and helps me prevent wasting buttloads of time, flashing other ppls "gold"

Obviously it is in the wrong section. But I will continue to find it humorous that such a large percentage of posts in forums are about housekeeping/protocol issues.

Well by looking at your post count, you haven't been around here very long and might not know the drama that unfolded in the past. In this phone's section at least, it doesn't matter where you post your topic. It will be moved and or locked by the powers that be. It might get moved within the nexus s section or it might get thrown into a completely different section of the forum on a whim. Your posts will get edited, locked, moved, deleted, etc. Even if you are a developer and make a rom, if the you know what decides that it's not supposed to be in the development section, it's gone.

Well by looking at your post count, you haven't been around here very long and might not know the drama that unfolded in the past. In this phone's section at least, it doesn't matter where you post your topic. It will be moved and or locked by the powers that be. It might get moved within the nexus s section or it might get thrown into a completely different section of the forum on a whim.

there was no rom posted by the op. this is simply a "head's up" about pete's upcoming rom. i personally can't wait for it.

Sadly I don't own a Shift, TBH I don't think they sell them in the UK.
This device seems pretty active, so I wouldn't call you all boring!

Let Me Put My Shift In U

Welcome

Hello and welcome to the Shift world .

Honestly...as somebody who has used this forum a lot...and many other various forums....we honestly should have a mod that truly understands the phone.
Otherwise, the moderators depth of knowledge is lame sauce with an extra side of weakness...just like this burger.

I would like to formally nominate vicodan, since I'm not active enough. Add my contributions and knowledge of the phone to add extra emphasis on my nomination.

So because I don't own your handset, that makes me......?
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.

Now, I'll be the first to admit that I am not particularly active here, things are very tidy and there is a strong community spirit here. Why would I want to upset that great balance?
I'm not saying that VICODAN would or wouldn't be a good moderator, so don't assume that.

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...

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.
