So it's come to my attention that the thank-you system on XDA is a method by which people's contribution to XDA is measured.
For instance, a developer provides a new custom ROM that is well liked: BAM! he receives thank-you's.
In noticing all this, I've come to realize that there are a lot people who just aren't thanked enough.
My solution: I'll thank you.
Create a post identifying yourself, and thank me, and I'll thank you right back. In this way, everyone wins!
~Jasecloud4
To clarify rules:
You can only post for a thank-you once a day.
Only thank me on this post. In this way I can only be thanked 1 time by each of you, yet you can receive as many times as days you post.

It will still get locked, its been tried before man
That may be true. But why would the MODS lock something that is within the rules? That doesn't seem normal.
~Jasecloud4
And hey, I invite the mods to join as well. Everyone needs a thank-you!
Free thanks? Sure

God, it smacks of having fake friends on facebook, or even creating fake profile which are used just to direct appreciation to the real profile. (See Ebay scammers et al). I feel violated at the merest suggestion that the same tactics would be employed here!
The thanks system works a treat as it is, and if it inspires people to raise their game and think more about the usefullness of what they're posting then we all win. What we don't need is a corrupt and fake immitation of the system!

Welcome to XDA
We hope you enjoy your stay but please familiarise yourself with the forum rules, remember to search before posting and read the sticky threads.
If you'd done this you would have found the "Say Hi" thread and not needed to create a new thread to say hello..
But don't listen to me....
I'm sure M_T_M or somebody important will be around soon to tell you this...

Who here actually donates? Those that do, how many devs & how much have you donated?
Ok, the thread is meant to be a bit intrusive. But...its more for stats, cause I wonder how many people appreciate others work? Sometimes I look think "Oh man that would have taken them freakin ages to make hmmm yeah I better swing em some bux". But then I think to my self 'well...what's a reasonable amount to donate?'
Rules are:
For the sake of not starting sh!tfights over who has better ROM

"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
bla bla bla and people going off topic, we are not disclosing who we donated to and/or reason why we donated.
So it will be number of devs
Total amount
Date (not day of month...just month and year for perspective)
Possibly a break down on amounts if you want so long as it doesn't break the rule above^^^
I'll start
XDA
09/11 - $10.05AUD
02/12 - $20.00AUD
03/12 - $10.00AUD
03/12 - $25.00AUD
05/12 - $5.00AUD
Total $70.00
Google Market
10/10 - $5.00AUD
I dont think that this is appropriate as any donations should be between user and developer. Then you have no way of actually confirming the donations so im sure people will make themselves seem more charitable. And last but not least, if it was for percentages and statistics you should have started a poll in this thread.
Firstly, if you read my rules you would see that it was aimed to protect what you raised. I don't need to check if the people paid them or not? It wasn't about that...people can lie and claim they donated heaps and I wouldn't know? But that would be kinda stupid wouldn't it?
I wanted to start a poll, but I've never done that before...and a poll would entice the thought that this was something structured when its not.
I wanted to see what sort of thing seems fair or common, cause my belief is that not many people donate at all and hardly any amount if they do. But on odd occasions i see a post and it make me wonder again...or believe that this isn't true, that there are donators.
Do you understand where I am headed now?
James
I can't remember, but i have donated.
I just join not too long ago im tight at the moment once i get spare money ill be happy to donate to xda development

I haven't donated directly to anyone through XDA - but I support Lowveld on the HTC DesireS forum by buying his apps from the market even when he includes them for free in his ROMs.
Oh yeah, ib4l as well
Donations are a private matter, no matter how little info you are asking for.
With that in mind, thread closed.

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.

Yes, it's true. After remaining thanked 109 times for several months, someone actually had the audacity to thank me one more time, thus bringing my thanks count up to 110.
This so infuriated the moderators that the thanks system has been permanently disabled.
Perhaps a "hate" count system could be implemented ?

My thread talking about no thanks in OT did not even get locked. Straight to deletion. I've yet to hear a sensible reason why eliminate "thanks" just in OT. I understand a new system is being tested and will soon be implemented in all forums, but why single out OT?

Lol, your right, though I've seen others take it far more seriously.
This is a pointless thread. The admins made a decision. A decision I agree with and makes a lot of sense. The thanks function is designed to be used when someone has helped regarding the actual purpose of the site, which is mobile device development. None of which occurs in the Off-topic section. Further discussion of this is bound to create arguments and controversy, therefore thread closed.
Recently I lost my iPhone 5 while I was driving to my home..I dont know how but it bumped out of my pocket and fell somewhere.I am sure someone must be using and enjoying my expensive phone.I have the imei number but don't know how to track. Theif must have factory format the phone so no chance of software..surveillance cost is very high in India and cops aren't very active regarding tracking a mobile phone..Any suggestions pls?

XDA does have an iPhone forum. You'll get a more mature response there.
