Like the title suggests, this is the serious thread of off topic.
These days there were a lot of complaints from Mods and admins that off topic is becoming crap.
Now let's show them that we can do something serious in here.
In this thread you may talk about anything, as long as it is serious enough and respects the forum rules.
So who's first?

It can still be fun to try and post and/or have discussions that are serious and intelligent. No?
There is nothing outside of OT!
Well... point is, I came in not long before PDL left (the other time) and between then and now, we've had some serious gaffes. So, we do kinda deserve it.
And of course, the PM thing (which I didn't get) is pretty bad, simply because the mods now think we are a nuisance, instead of just a bunch of peeps gathering together and having fun and never going on topic.
So since this is the serious off topic thread, I have a seriously off topic question? What type of paypal account does one use for a "donate to me" button on xda. Personal, premier or business?

You can receive, although if you receive so much for a certian period of time, they may lock your Paypal and investigate, I've seen some threads on it, they'll give you no warning either, So be careful

In pain and need serious opinions
I have a serious question:
How the hell can i make my neck feel better?
Everytime i turn it to the left i fell like someone is squeezing the muscle in it really really hard and makes me cringe in pain!
Ive Tried;
1. Ice Pack (which only made it worse)
2. Hot shower on it: helped for 2 min
3. Hot towel (Helped 2 min)
4. 800mg ubprofen (didnt do crap)
5. Weird push the pressure excercise i found on google (Didnt do jack)
Any suggestions would be appreciative.
Seriously in pain
Ok. Try taking a muscle relaxer (like doans pills) also continue with the hot towels and ibuprofen will only help after you also take the muscle relaxers...Don't mix however
Take muscle relaxer
Continue Hot Towel
If needed take ibuprofen only 12 hours after muscle relaxers DON'T MIX IBUPROFEN AND MUSCLE RELAXERS!!
There is nothing outside of OT!
Where do I get muscle relaxed pills and how much are they? Are the in the ibuprofen section?

You should be able to find them near the pain medicine
(or ask the pharmacist)
I wouldn't drink with them (or very little) they can make you very tired. They are not that expensive depending on where you are I would say less than ten dollars (us dollars) They are called (brand name) Doan's. Hope this helps you.

Well thanks for the tip I might get some if that tomorrow if its still in pain, im more relaxed now after 2 beer margaritas
Sent from my Epic 4.0.1g bonsai plant
Also, there is topical ( on the skin) muscle relaxants that do a lot to help muscle pain. I can't think of a brand name at the moment, but these often work better than the pill form for sharp pains, as you can relax the specific area.
Definitely don't try the pill form with alcohol, they really don't mix well.

In xda-developers > Samsung Galaxy S I9000 > Galaxy S I9000 General there is a thread asking about the situation at Android Forums.
I thought I'd start an easier to find thread here in case the site is down for a prolonged time and members want to update.
I hope this is the right area; I just joined a few minutes ago.
All seems well there now.
I did a search here at XDA under, "androidforums.com down?" and found just this old thread of mine.
Anyway, I'm not sure how long it's been down, but I have been trying for about one hour (starting at about 4:30 am central U.S. time).

We really see our sites working in concert to help the Android community as a whole.
I often tell people, go to XDA for your roms needs but if you're new to Android, just ask your questions here (at AF) first.
And we _never_ tolerate people just kanging posts or usurping downloads with their own mirrors at our site - kinda robs the devs here of their well-earned contributions.
My idea is - encourage users keep both sites clean and it's just more fun for everyone.
And you cats are always welcome in our house! How not?!?

So - the evo widow there is just slaying me in our OT thread there. I was even forced - forced, I say! - to write a poem on what to do when your g/f disapproves of your forum time!

Running out the door and lma0 and I do mean right off.
I have been here in the forums for precisely the correct amount of time.
I spent nearly a full 60 seconds trying to see what root joke I'd missed, and then went, rom coms, non-comms, avatar is pretty patriotic - do they have roms for non-comms?
And anyone who's been a regular in the Ban The Person Above You thread knows what's coming next...
I like this site I must confess,
But posts like this just cause distress!
It took great time but I digress,
With terms obscure I do obsess!
Now I have learned your words with tricks,
And I do not like those flicks for chicks!
I will not watch them when I can post,
I do not care if that makes me toast!
Upgrade your friend girl and do not stress,
Find one who likes phones and use finesse -
Treat her well with kind decorum,
Then she won't mind you on this forum!
Better still use fine caress,
I do so wish you great success!

dont you hate it when you go to meet your girl's family or go to a wedding of one of her family members only to find out that her cousins and sisters are so hot and you have to pretend not to stare?
nope, opportunity! Never turn it down ...
So there was this couple getting ready. The groom is at his house getting ready for the bug day, when his future wive's super hot sister comes in. She asks him if he wants to have sex with her, since technically he's still not married. He gets excited and runs down to his car to get a condom. Upon exiting the house, the bride's family is standing there, and the father congratulated him that he didn't take the bait, and that now he knows he loves his daughter. Moral of the story? Keep you condoms in the car.
I LOVE DOIN STUFF LIKE THAT
Mine is a little different, the one who's hot is my cousin.

that is an awesome post. bravo
Don't you hate it when you're driving and the person on the road in front of you doesn't follow proper turning protocol? Instead, they slam their breaks on 5 feet before the turn, THEN flip on the signal. As if, at that point the turn signal is a necessity and the turn couldn't be executed without the signal.
By the way, proper protocol is put signal on 15-20 meters (at least) before turning, THEN break and turn.

this wasnt to meant to be a rant thread. i was just talking about a single subject, when you meet a girls family and she has hot relatives. that is specifically why i wrote it. i didnt know it would turn into a rant thread. read my sig, it alludes to the fact that i am a noob. read my posts. i believe there are several of my posts saying i am sorry for posting in the wrong thread or place. it was my belief that you could post anything in the offtopic area. once again, i am sorry if i have posted in the wrong area and this has made you angry. i didnt think it would even matter if it was in the offtopic area anyway.
kind sir, could you please direct me to a place where people can post anything anytime and they dont have to search for an hour to do so?
this thread was not started as a rant thread. it was started to get opinions on dealing with / laugh at the fact that our girlfriends/fiances/wives have hot relatives. maybe it was the title of the post that lead people to believe it was a rant thread. maybe there should be some rules more clearly outlined on titles of threads.
did you notice there was a question icon on my thread? it was a question. not a rant. that is why i used a question mark. dont blame me for the actions of others. good day to you, sir.

This. It was the elipsis that threw me off, haha. But I wouldn't worry about any of that, this is off-topic, after all. If anything, you just gave david something to rant about in his rant thread *waves at david*
As far as hot relatives of your SO go, in my book that isn't necessarily a bad thing. Just don't get caught staring!
i wasnt too upset. i was just frustrated because i NEVER seem to post or start a thread in the correct place. thanks for making me feel better about it, djbacon06. and sorry if i sounded like an arse, davidrules778.

None taken. In fact i completely agree, although the aforementioned curvaciousness shouldn't only apply to females. I mean, i'm as guilty as the next guy for objectifying people on the basis of their appearance, but it's not every day that you see a fellow forumite like Milad in the flesh.. and i'm sure you'll agree that it's understandable if one finds themselves carried away in the moment.
After all, knowing Milad as i do, it's safe to say that he's not all about the pleasing aesthetics... Ok, he may be somewhat a good looking fella in his own right, (and tbh that whole outfit is really doing it for me), but he also has a great mind behind the facade, and it's a little shallow of people to judge him on his stunning good looks alone. Have a heart, the man has personality and character too you know?
I'd post a picture of myself but i'm too afraid people would either objectify, or more likely, ridicule me instead.

Sometimes ones opinion about oneself sucks, i always though of myself as a not very good looking guy, but when i go out a fair number of girls find me attractive
But when i see myself in the mirror i think, sheet! How am i allowed to go out the streets
But if you are good looking then... You suck for being embarrased for no reason

It's true! Every mirror i've ever looked in has cracked for some reason. I guess i should stop punching them! Seriously though, anyone who thinks they can do better than SB or Milad should post a pic of themselves...if they dare!
Personally, i'd rather get by judging people on who they are rather than how they look tbh. The internet is full of hot 'looking' people, but xda is full of hot 'real' people.
What's up with the useage of "Bro" in this forum?

Urban dictionary
1. Obnoxious partying males who are often seen at college parties. ...usually just stand around holding a red plastic cup waiting for something exciting to happen so they can scream something that demonstrates how much they enjoy partying. Nearly everyone in a fraternity is a bro but there are also many bros who are not in a fraternity. They often wear a rugby shirt and a baseball cap. It is not uncommon for them to have spiked hair with frosted tips.
Bros actually chose this name for themselves as they often refer to each other as "bro" even though they are not related.

1. Obnoxious partying males who are often seen at college parties. ...usually just stand around holding a red plastic cup waiting for something exciting to happen so they can scream something that demonstrates how much they enjoy partying. Nearly everyone in a fraternity is a bro but there are also many bros who are not in a fraternity. They often wear a rugby shirt and a baseball cap. It is not uncommon for them to have spiked hair with frosted tips.
Bros actually chose this name for themselves as they often refer to each other as "bro" even though they are not related.

What's up with the useage of "Bro" in this forum?
Is it a xda or local Infuse forum thing because this is about the only place I see it used since the '80s...and it was kindof a derogatory term...
It's getting old..or maybe just reflects the poster's mental age??
Dude?

ofcoarse we're Americans. bro
most of my bad spelling and grammar comes from over editing my posts to reword stuff and posting from my phone where the keyboard likes to auto replace things that don't even make sense.

I find it comical that you question peoples' mental age that use the word "bro" in the forum, and then use Urban Dictionary as a reference.
i was in a meeting once at one of the automotive dealerships that i worked at, the general manager and the dealer principle called each other bro a few times during the meeting.. one of them i would say late 50's and the other early 60's.. i actually thought nothing of it. im 37ish ..use bro all the time...bro!
age??
Hmm, there are strange things happening in this Forum :
Somebody (!), I will not say a name now, is closing my thread because I posted this :

"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",

"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

}
Well, maybe it was because it is defined as Spam ? O.k. I can handle this..why ? Because I am German and way back in History, we had a lot of "Spam" beeing closed, burned or deleted..
But...
Deleting Attachments over night so my Screenshots of a Rom are no longer available, forcing me to panic ..this sux
I can stand young people's language, trolls, loud mentioned opinions BUT Censorship sux.
So, @somebody(!), close, edit or delete anything again and you will never see me again.
FREEDOM OF SPEECH FOR EVER !!!!!!
I can feel ya.
I could witness it several times now.
Best thing is: without a notice nor reason.

And I'm wondering all the time, why they did shut down the site for one day recently. Does anybody know anymore or even care the exact reason for the action? ...
Btw, I'm currently counting the minutes until this thread will be closed or me getting the first infraction, because of my inquisitiveness. ...
Lol, no notice is suck!

Wow, you really are ignorant to what is going on around you.
They did it in protest against SOPA and rightfully so as well. You would care if SOPA came into action because the internet as we know it would be gone.
It is sites like XDA that had your back. You might wanna think about that before you go jumping on a "free speech" thread.

LoL ... +1 for you to point it out and still knowing the purpose of the SOPA action.
Actually it seems, that I do even care more than you do.
Some suggestions specially for you:
Go back to square one and read up till square five.
Assemble your thoughts before posting any informations, which might be useful to the community or discussion.
Go back to square one and read carefully again up till square five. You may at some point get the gist behind the lines and even get to know the purpose and intention of this thread.
Rhetorical question; for your reference and future usage ...
Hmm ... and thank you for your fourth helpful post within about one year of registration to enlighten us all, how you do really care about the XDA community.

I dont see anything bad in this picture. Its a joke, come on!
The fail is strong in this one...
Post things like that in a device specific forum and it will be closed.
If you need an explanation as to why then you are probably in the wrong place....
Mate, this isn't the place for you to air your grievances. If you know which mod deleted your posts then contact them directly and discuss it. If you feel you can't do that then contact a senior mod and discuss it with them. No-one here is against free speech. Just do things the right way and it's all good

Ooooh thanks for the Tips...just one thing : this thread has been moved from Galaxy Ace Forum to the Nirvana..so, of course, you guys think this is strange.
Well, I'll just move, I don't like censorship, just take a look, everywhere in the world they try to ..
Don't be confused, this was never meant as general whine, it was Ace Forum specific ;-)
But
greetings
FREEDOM OF SPEECH!!!! FOR EVERYONE!!!!

Can't we keep out the Riff-Raff? We have standards you know! Really low ones, admittedly, but standards nonetheless!
Holy words, if you feel that a moderators did the wrong thing then pm to him and ask him for more informations or either contact the Admin.
For this reason this thread is now closed.
