AFAIK you can only see your last 1000 posts, so many of us can't answer the question
I believe mine was an answer to a question in the Touch Diamond forum.
I believe mine was to ask about accessories.
I think mine was about making the white WM6 start menu black.

A few days after starting my first thread I edited the post and just put a link to someone else's thread. My thread was a quick honeycomb sdk port. The thread I linked to was an almost useable port.
I bet I did.

Well, I was not trying to insult anybodies sensibilities.
I was trying to find out why anybody would be interested in whether or not they sounded like a "noob" in their first post.
And at the risk of setting myself up, I'd have to say that I'm genuinely confused.

Since I am bored beyond wits, and was inspired by WPBears quotes at the end of his signature, I would like to hear the stupidest, most outlandish, jaw dropping, 'How could you be THAT stupid' questions you have ever read, answered, or posted on XDA...
mine isn't great, but it would have to be..
'If I SIM unlock my wizard, can I switch over to Sprint?'
i'd answered too many posts not to have to surpress most of the silly ones
but vaguely recall people asking for how to do tasks which were clearly something one just clicked on of the things present on the normal today screen menu
Hmmm... I'm sort of loathe to get involved because I'll probably find somebody's choice for stupid question is one of mine...
Al the same, it's got to be the person on the folowing thread I guess.
It wasn't the content of the question, it was that he followed this opening comment:

I tried to go through most of the forum posts but I dont think I could find my answers..
I was wondering if anyone knows what is wrong with my phone. I did an update and now my phone wont work back to normal. All it shows up is the G1 words across a black screen and that is about it.
When I tried to do a reboot it wouldn't work, I can no longer connect my phone with my USB to the computer, so what other options do I have with this matter? I know my phone isn't a brick.
Any help is appreciated. Thanks and good night..

I thought this was more appropriate, since according to the OP he searched and couldn't find an answer anywhere on the forums, and this shows that there are in fact thousands of his exact question that have been answered. I like the shock and awe of 57,900 results.

Very strange, and it was my first dream in a long time, let alone ever dreaming of a phone or software lol
so in my dream i had an in-person discussion with NilsP about his ROM about how i think he should add the 5 latest apps to the transparent dropdown. No biggie, 10min convo
Now im warped a few days later and im at like a BBQ party, and i meet someone and start showing him my phone and a few ROMs i had on backup
I pull down the transparent dropdown and see some chrome looking skulls, with red glowy eyes ... 5 of them across the top of the dropdown where the apps would be!!
So i say wtf is this? Maybe i never really broke in NilsP's ROM and its just now initializing or something??
Now the phone reboots itself and its some chromed skull theme, and the 5 recent apps are in the dropdown!!
In my dream i was kicking myself trying to figure out how the hell this ROM all of a sudden had it! Or did NilsP find a way to hack into my phone and add the feature i begged him for??
Last thing i remember is being puzzled and stumped, then i woke up
stupid as hell, but thats it lol

Contrary to popular belief, off-topic is not a place where you can open a thread for anything you like and it just flies. It follows the same rules that apply everywhere else in the forum. In this particular case, the rule is about not opening threads that already exist. I did link you to two threads that were relevant to your post.
As for this thread, if you have a problem with a mod decision then by all means question it, but don't open a thread to do it. Send a PM to the mod in question (namely me, in this case) and politely discuss it with them.
