I only noticed today that I am now a Senior Member.
Thank you very much XDA-DEVELOPERS MODS for the upgrade.
You have a great New Year.
YOSEFE.
It's not that big a deal...
If you put 100 monkeys in a room and have them logged in to XDA, all their posts combined would more than likely place them at a Senior level...aka the monkey theorem
The infinite monkey theorem states that a monkey hitting keys at random on a typewriter keyboard for an infinite amount of time will almost surely type a given text, such as the complete works of William Shakespeare.
So...from one Senior Member to another...welcome to the club...
I am also Senior member. What does it mean? Something specific?
Or it changes automatically, when i post more than XX posts?
Happy new Year
you reach this status when you post 100 posts or more
in order to reach moderator status you need to submit a nomination request then if this is accepted you need to do the moderator initiation test
this involves bull-whips chains and a blindfold an a truck of swans and geese.
at this time ive been asked not to say what the task actually involves as it supposed to be a evaluation of your judgement and task handling skills
You forgot to mention the tar and feathers ... or was that supposed to remain confidential?

For every happy person in the world, there is always someone waiting in the wings to rain on their parade. You remind me of my ex-wife.
@YOSEFE congrats on 100 posts, hope you continue to gain knowledge and help others here with that knowledge.
When i get to a thousand posts i want an xda t-shirt plz lol
since every sponsors is dropping him, Tiger got my support!
i would do the same if i'm Tiger, when you have all the money in the world, what' the point of living if u dont enjoy life the fullest!
Call me old fashioned, but I believe that when you are with somebody, especially married to somebody, you are to remain faithful.
Although, I don't really see why sponsors are dropping Tiger now, he's more popular now, then ever.

I believe this is often referred to as "commitment" ... which IMHO ranks right up there with "honour", "respect", and "ethics". Although I have no issues with living life the fullest, some actions such as adultery do have consequences which sponsors must keep in mind.
At the time I read this thread, I felt that it simply served to instigate a "flamewar" session amongst fellow XDA members or to encourage comments that could be construed as a personal attack on Tiger Woods behaviour as depicted by the media - and as such closed it. Additionally, I felt the thread communicated a negative message to younger - more impressionable - readers.
As a result of closing the thread however, a fellow XDA member felt that I was being too harsh and that to some degree, my actions communicated an undesireable form of censoring.
As such, I have taken the matter up with Flar. In the interest of not communicating a form of censoring, I have chosen to re-open this thread for others to comment with the caveat that it not deteriorate into a personal attack on Tiger Woods or fellow XDA members.

Hi All
I very rarely post much on these forums but am hoping for anyone reading this if you can help a little in the following:
As some may know the Hillsborough Anniversary is again fast approaching, on April 15th 1989 96 Liverpool Fans tragically lost their lives that day and after a long & frustrating 22 years the families of those lost are still fighting for the justice that they and the 96 lost deserve, for more information regarding this please follow this link: Welcome to The Hillsborough Justice Campaign
Shortly following the disaster The Sun, one of the biggest selling tabloid newspapers in the UK printed many lies about that tragic day, putting the blame squarely on Liverpool fans and their supposed atrocious behavior, of course all those were sick, vile lies and since that day, Liverpool fans & Liverpudlians including the Everton fanbase have seeked to Boycott that vile newspaper whom still have yet to make any form of sincere apology.
If I can ask for one simple favour; Stephen Smith is a very talented music artist who recently released his album 'Next Train to Nowhere' on the album contains the song 'Liar, Liar' of which he has just released Monday gone (April 4th) in attempt to get it into the charts for the week leading upto the Hillsborough Disaster & there's also been a campaign by fellow Liverpool fans to help get the song into the charts and to raise awareness of not only the lies told by The Sun but to maybe even bring that deserved justice to those family members that one step closer to reality.
We ask that for just a paltry sum of 0.79p to download the song of which as mentioned above can really help bring awareness of the tragedy and what befalled it to a much wider audience and push that fight for justice one step closer to completion.
Not only will you be massively helping families who are still grieving to this day as they still have yet to receive the closure their loved ones deserved but the song in itself is worth purchasing alone written & performed by an exepetionally talented musician.
All proceeds from Liar Liar will be donated to the Hillsborough Family Support Group, Hope for Hillsborough and the Hillsborough Justice Campaign.
Here are the download links:
ITunes - Stephen Smith - Liar, Liar
Amazon.co.uk - Stephen Smith - Liar, Liar
Here's the music video:

Here's the Facebook Group:
Get 'Liar Liar' into the charts for April 10th

PS: It is sadly currently languishing at 266 in the top300, we need one almighty push up the charts, if you do have the time please Tweet & Facebook this to anyone you know, thanks again for taking the time to read this.
bought.
JFT96!
RIP.
On that sad day, my grandfather, auntie, two uncles and my uncles friend went to watch their team play a game. Only four returned home again.
The events of that day are widely reported and I've never heard them speak of their ordeal.
One of my earliest memories of my uncle was him on crutches for so long afterwards.
You'll never walk alone.

"When I published those stories, they were not lies. They were great stories that later turned out to be untrue — and that is different. What am I supposed to feel ashamed about?"
All right people I am not going to waste time by writing a long winded distorted post and I request only those to respond on this thread who are genuinely interested and capable !

I do write seriously, and while I typically write mysteries (I have 2 published novels and 2 other manuscripts), I have no objection to branching out into fantasy, because I do enjoy that genre as well.
My main concern would be getting involved in a large scale project this close to November, which is the National Novel Writing Month. This will be my fifth year participating in that event.
Feel free to PM me with details of your project.

I write amateur humour/parody. I have "published" several articles to some acclaim, but mostly they get buried by my subconscious. I just don't have the drive to finish what I started writing.

Thank you for showing the initiative ....
Actually I want someone who can really get into a consistent frame of writing with a set mindset ...
And you need to be supremely well versed with mechanics of epic style fantasy writing alongside an insanely creative mind because most of the common fantasy books these days are based upon lord of the rings or wheel of time series !!
So think over this and tell me are you game enough for such an enormous task requiring time energy and maybe giving up some money and commitments probably?

I sense several problems with that. I have been studying the works of authors for some time now, and I have came up with several observations:
1. Tolkienesque - is very bland and hard for normal readers to access.
2. Pratchett - Short and humorous stories with continuity. Parkinson's catching up to him and later books more profound than before.
3. Robert Jordan - bit off more than he can chew. Created too many characters and sub-plots with little to no resolutions.
4. Terry Goodkind - no continuity in plotlines. Overly simplistic and uses Deus ex Machisna too much. Also incapable of building suspense across books. Not to mention trying to force personal philosophy to readers.
5. Piers Anthony - too many books causes complete and utter lack of creativity.
6. J. K. Rowling - Naive and unwilling to experiment with characters beyond stereotypes.
Unfortunately, I have not been reading much lately and thus incapable of expanding the list of writers
What do you think about these writers? Note that I mostly take their negative points, because these are things I want to avoid as a writer.

Billa 2 teaser sets records
Published in Times of India dated April 15,2012
The teaser of Ajith's upcoming flick Billa 2 has taken Youtube by a storm.
The teaser has been trending right from the moment it appeared on Youtube and it is on its way to create a record of sorts as far as Tamil films are concerned. The official teaser has received over 4 million views since April 13, when it was first unveiled, with the comments space being filled with hundreds of pages of comments.
Billa 2, the prequel to Ajith's superhit Billa (a remake of the Rajinikanth starrer of the same name which itself was a remake of Amitabh Bachchan's Don), tells the story of how David, an ordinary man became the much-feared international don Billa. The film stars Parvathy Omanakuttan and Bruna Abdullah as the leading ladies and Vidyut Jamwal (of Force fame) as the antagonist.
Stars about Ajith
I see myself whenever i see him - Mohanlal
If u ask me to choose a Tamil Actor to remake my scripts only he can do - Aamir Khan
His backbone is operated 13 times but its neven bend before anyone - Vairamuthu
If u r not his fan u lack in maturity - Venkat prabhu

Two men in India never lost a single fan even if they fail to succeed&dey are Ajith and Ganguly - Kris Srikanth Ks

Surely no doubt but its much better than DON II
Yuvan Shankar Raja Dances in Billa II
Thala’s fans went berserk when Billa 2 teaser was released. The latest buzz is that music composer Yuvan Shankar Raja has danced for a song in Billa 2.
He did it for Ajith and the number will be a real treat to Yuvan’s fans. The postproduction on full swing. Cinematographer Rajasekar is working hard to set a unique colour tones to the film as the script travels through different shades in Billa’s life.
Director of photography R.D. Rajasekar says, “Ajith provided whatever the script demanded. I am currently working on base light software to enhance the colour of the film.
The amazing part of the film was Yuvan’s rocking songs.” When asked if Yuvan has danced for a song, he says, “Yuvan has danced in one of the songs. He has appeared and shaken his leg for a part of a song. He did it with his own inimitable style.”
++ Ajith's 'Billa 2' takes social media by storm++
New Delhi: Fans of actor Ajith seem to be waiting for the his next, 'Billa 2', with bated breath. In just 24 hours, the teaser got a record 3,82,338 hits on YouTube. The title was also trending on social networking site Twitter for quite a while.
The prequel to 'Billa' (2007), directed by Chakri Toleti, 'Billa 2', is said to be about the birth and early life of the don and has Ajith, Parvathy Omanakuttan and Bruna Abdullah playing the lead roles.
After being postponed a couple of times, the film is now tentatively slated for release on May 25.
Looks like Kollywood filmmakers have understood the impact of social media, following the popularity and success of Dhanush's song 'Kolaveri di', and are now hoping to promote their movies using networking sites well before the release.
