This is not a criticism but can new/old members please follow the guidelines for submitting information on threads, having read many of the threads some don’t follow these simple guidelines of formatting.
Tips:
Use paragraphs to space things out over different subjects not a big block of unreadable text.
Use quote tags for quotes but only show a small area of the quote, not a massive huge display box.
Quote from Peter Poelman:
3. Please try to write your message so that other people understand
This board is in English. We know English isn't everyone's native tongue, and we certainly do not nitpick about spelling and grammar. But please try to be somewhat articulate about what you want to say or ask. A long message is likely to be more readable if it has a few commas or at least a period every now and then. TRY NOT TO USE SENTENCES MADE OF ONLY CAPITAL LETTERS, as this is annoying to read. When you are done, read your message again, and try to see if someone else would understand what you just wrote.
The use of online translation services to translate a message from your own language to English before posting it is discouraged. Please use this as a last resort only.

Use Bold to emphasise things and underlining but don’t go overboard.
Use images sparingly and only when needed, don’t post huge images but rather create a link to open a window instead.

can anybody tell me how to watch sky mobile tv on htc diamond?
Sorry for not offering help (because I can't), but I had to write that this was the MOST innovative subject ever (not):
An "HTC Diamond" topic in "Diamond" section... You warranty that almost nobody will every look inside it (or in fact do look inside for the same reason I did).
Pitty forum software does not allow for empty subjects eh?
Jeakins
Don't take the reply by NLS (Senior Member!) personally, it is just that this forum is not really the place for a post like yours.
I have noticed that some of the people who post replys (not many) can be just plain rude & choose that option before explaining.
Were I you I would try a site like Coolsmartphone.com & join their forum or give your provider a ring.
Hope this helps.
there is a program called DiamondTV that can be found on this forum if you look close enough. i don't know wether you can watch your program with it, but it's worth a try

we are here to help each other ,,,,, is that too much to ask ????Mr. senior Member
This forum has rules.
They are to be followed. Except for the last sentance dig, the "Senior Members" post was reminding you guys of the rules.
Then you guys created this into a Flame thread, because "Junior Members" seems to think the policies and rules don't apply to them.
Guess what, they do. Here's a Link, Read and LIVE by these Guidelines.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=681487&postcount=1
The Rules said:
2. Use a clear subject
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
This thread did NOT have a clear subject, the subject SHOULD have been, "SkyTV on my Diamond" or something similar.
The Rules said:
8. Stay cool
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Once again why you thought it wise to attack, NLS, or anyone for that matter is beyond me. Just because someone points out your mistake doesn't give YOU the right to break the rules.
Consider this a Warning to Everyone, If it DOESN'T contribute, Don't Post it!

I believe that Mods & Admins vote for people that contribute and in general help to respect the rules of the forum.
That´s my guess only

So i wanted to this forum because i wanted some help with a model boat. So i fills in the registration, does the weird letter thing. And click "i agree" the submit. Then i recieve this:

I HAVE NOT DONE ANYTHING!!!!
Could this be because i did the weird word thing wrong?
Thanks
Well it just might be that they have certain security features that only allow you in once they have personally approved your registration. Until then, accessing the site through the address that it was directing you to after you hit "Agree" might have registered you as an unapproved member.
Maybe you have a split (evil) personality you don't know about......
Another possible reason is a poorly selected username.
Or... what I said?
contact Admin forum, it must be an internal problem...

I guess they disabled/banned the guest user due to spamming. I don't blame them. Time to wait for your account to be verified
Never heard of their choice in forum type though.

There are several ways to ban users. One of them is by IP banning, which causes anyone registering with that IP to be either automatically banned or rejected upon registration. The only bad thing about this is that you can ban a lot of innocent people by doing this, and this may have just been the case.

No matter how many times I contact admins, I can't get psn to tell me why my username and email were banned upon registry for my psp 3 yrs ago.
Sucks cause I have an email setup just for psn that I would like to receive updates on the one I use for the rest of my life.

Nothing to explain, just we need a "BANN THIS USER" button.
Some 1 is acting like how much he is expert or kid. You can see his post everywhere, even he replies to threads which doesnt belongs to him. e.g in Huexxx. Even he suggests developers in vain to use his work e.g. Boype.
We really need some strict rules.
Every where I see, just his posts. Daily 10-12 posts and 1-2 new threads. Uff some 1 please stop him.
CAN NOT WE HAVE A BANN THIS USER LIKE ONLINE GAMES?
we have already a "report this post" button
it has same task
you will report, moderator will look, if it necesery ban user...
you or we cant decide this.
If everyone would have a ban button it would have been caos on xda...

Also would like to know who you guys are talking about....
I had no wish to point out by his name but if you will monitor our community you can pick him easily. Anyways reporting is better coz "he" has a abussive start even in his own modded rom thread.
Ahm... aint that boy doing more good than harm?
Anyways I think your thread is also far from being strict and stretched to the rules you mean.
Thread closed
There is no purpose to this thread. If you have a problem with a user, report it and we'll take it from there. If someone just plain irritates you consider this - you may be irritating someone. So they should be able to ban you? Understand one thing in life - not everyone thinks like you do. Learn when to just let it go.

@mario0318's signature includes some statements supposedly made by naturalist and media presenter David Attenborough in a nature documentary, to which I responded to in the MiX FAQ thread, and which @J.Michael brought over here.

I don’t think it is a fully accurate quote. The writing style is very similar to that used in Attenborough’s nature documentaries, in fact the format and grammar is formulaic in its similarity and the first and last sentences seem real, but even though Attenborough can sometimes be abstract or poetic (and or sexist) especially in descriptions of domestic or mating behavior, the middle two sentences go beyond rational science, and are more flowery than even Sir A. tends to get, and I cannot find any reference to unique strings of text from the "quote" on line. So, IMO not an accurate quote. I’d be interested in seeing proof of its validity or hearing why such an imaginative fiction was written. Meanwhile here’s a genuine and verifiable quote, which has long been one of my favorites, about a small herd of female Wild Asses encountering a male Wild Ass at a watering hole.
“Female Asses are mysterious creatures. They come and go as they please, and much of their behavior seems unfathomable to an outsider.” D. Attenborough.
