I know this thread isnt entirely skyrocket related, but it is nice to have an off-topic thread for SKYROCKET USERS to have to kick back and talk. Going to the off-topic forum is one thing, but those threads can get so jumbled and congested in a matter of hours that nobody knows who is talking to who. Besides, after the months I have spent with this forum, this is the only group I get along with, and the only group I care to get along with.

Cleaned thread. I already locked the other thread for reasons that are known to those that crossed a line. I don't mine a off topic thread to "chill out" and just hang out, but If I have to continually intervene then its not worth keeping open. Hope everyone can keep out of trouble and have fun.

Armyveterangunner29, I believe in your sincerity regarding your message which you clearly demonstrate care for the quality of both content and membership of the skyrocket forum, and I thank you.
You are among many others in this forum which have been very helpful to many and have worked hard to share your work. I expect we shall see many great things yet to come from you and others alike.
Thanks, Alex__________________
To agree with you further armyvet, as collective owners of this forum, its in our hands to shape the forum's culture -which reflects it's members. There are members here that make a larger presence than others, and I encourage these individuals to use their influence to promote growth and community. This forum must foster its own growth for continued development of the skyrocket here on XDA; or face the ax of legacy status.
Many have been here from the skyrocket's launch, others a little later, and some more yet to come. As other devices launch our community changes shape and new waves of members come, as others leave. The skyrocket forum has always maintained it's welcome to everyone in a friendly and helpful manner.

oka1 is someone I would consider a "friend" on here... much, much more so than the "kids" on here who just ask a ton of questions (for no apparent reason) and those who troll.
I "like" all the people on here who GENUINELY seem to be here for the RIGHT reasons.
Not really. This community is just too big to get to know each other. If it was smaller then yeah maybe we would be buddies. With the exception of us metalheads. We will always be brothers, buddies no matter where we are \m/ another thing to add, most prople here are kids(immature). If not kids the're noobs who can't read.

If it wasn't for the "kids" on this forum, then this forum would be straight-out boring.
You guys are boring, the oldies, yes i'm talking about you.
It's like as soon as you became age 25+ you stopped learning to just "chill" and have fun. I'm sure you have fun in real life with people your same age or your kids or something, but without us here, this would be one hell of a lonely forum.
Some people need to accept that teens have smartphones, "OH I WONDER, WHY WOULD A 16 YEAR OLD BOY NEED A SMARTPHONE?!"
We like their functionalities. If you didn't notice from when YOU were a teen, teens are extremely curious. Don't act as if you were never a teen. You acted the same as us, and don't deny it.
SOME may be "over-dramatic"? or more immature, that i understand but immaturity is a part of being a teen, accept it or just gtfo.

Hey guys, it looks like the HTC Rezound is close to getting S-Off by Evil. If you didn't know, the Rezound has had a locked bootloader all this time just like us. Can we look to how they got root to help with our own efforts. The method of getting S-Off between these two phones can't be that different, can it?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1375598
EDIT: Apparently links to his site are prohibited. But just google "s-off think tank" to get to Evil's site.
They look close resembling. Worth a shot and try.

I'm pretty sure the internals are very very alike too. The only difference I've read is the screen size. They both came out around the same time, so I'd think they'd be locked in a very similar fashion.

Look, I don't like the guy and I think his attitude is terrible and he deserved the ban he got. But can we refrain from saying stuff that isn't true? It does nothing for guiding people to an eventual unlocked rezound (or vivid in this case). Open is supposed to be was android is about... not squelching possible advancements based off a personal problem.

As I appreciate your enthusiasm for moderating me. The statement was made intentionally. As I have had this thread topic in multiple forums and the dev in question prompts flaming from discussion as to why we can't link his site. Most people on here either love or hate the guy, I am cool with him. My statement is made because that's the reasoning behind not linking his site. I can post it when I did or we could wait until it was asked, I chose the pre emptive approach to avoid someone literally saying something negative about the dev and xda. If you have an issue with my statement please address a senior mod or admin.
I'm not a douche bag here, I treat you all with respect and do what I can to help. Thanks.

People are such dicks. And I'm talking about the replies on this thread, not the meizu owners. I've never handles a meizu phone but I've heard plenty of good things about them, but this sounds like a blind fanboy argument. The GS2 is still great even though we have the GS2 runt but at this point there are a lot of phones that are better than the t989. It would help if you got what meizu model they have lol.

Well after reading this review I'm surprised by the Meizu MX 2 core. Its got the exynos 4210/Mali 400 SoC we wish we had in the t989, a higher Res screen, better build quality. As far as I can see the t989 only wins at camera quality (barely..), a bigger screen with better picture quality and an SD card expansion, and of course dev support. I'd say both have pros and cons but are essentially on par.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-T989 using xda premium
Well said, although I believe personally the super amoled plus display makes up for the resolution, the meizu has the same resolution as the HTC sensation for example on a basic 4 inch screen though.

Do you ever watch the YouTube dog fights? Phone vs phone? That's what this is except they got out of hand. I'm asking other people thoughts, phone for phone. Regardless, don't like it, **** off..

I think the problem stemmed from you just making a thread with a statement in it. You didn't ask any question and it would have been like me posting "I had a brown cat once, it was awesome" and then getting all *****y because people didn't assume I wanted a philosophical debate on why brown cats are superior to other cats.
After clearing it up by actually asking for feedback I think it was just people being snooty.
I haven't heard anything about those phones though. I might have to look up some reviews.
Something's wrong with Off Topic.
Be it double standards, unfair bans, post deletions... whatever...
All members who feel they have something constructive to contribute are welcome.
Let's try and solve these issues once and for all.
This thread started with it's main focus on two incidents that took place yesterday.
As I have repeatedly stated, those incidents are just a symptom of the disease.
Perhaps Off Topic is just a tumor on the face of XDA that needs to be excised.
Perhaps it's a place for people to cool down and fraternize.
But the members posting in OT have felt that something's been going wrong for the post few months.
Maybe that wrongness is an erroneous perception on our part, or maybe there actually is something wrong. We've all been trying to discuss our feelings about that on this thread.
Trying to wash all the dirty laundry once and for all, to resolve all the issues people have had here so that we can go back to our meme-posting ways in peace.
Please feel free to comment on us users too. Like the title says... this is a discussion, and I'd love to hear your side of the story too.
Please discuss.

Today's incident isn't the only time users have had issue with this moderator, and the only reason I abandoned the PM I was writing and made this thread was because I felt other members should take part i this discussion as well.
Please comment, @flastnoles11 @FlyGurl

@veeman @jugg1es
@Prawesome
Thanks for posting this *****ing awesome thread.
I believe because mods (I'm obviously generalizing here, there are many that don't) think of themselves as a separate group from the rest of "us" and because of their "kinship" they show leniency towards each other.

Hopefully we can wrap this up pretty quickly as it's nearly my bedtime.....

And a fail btw, if closing this thread was your intention.

Banning for use of the word ***** is just stupid anyhow. If you want to say it's a swear word, add it to the filter. Otherwise, if it isn't being used in an abusive or insulting way, let it be.

That's a pretty half-assed avoidance of the subject, plus, a moderator response to a report should be more mature, and at least attempt to use proper grammar. This looks like a 12 year old wrote it, I would expect a higher level of maturity from a mod.

A certain Smod (we all know who it was) made jRi0T68 change his sig because it had asshole in it, a word which isn't censored even today.

If the people want to do this in public then so be it. All previous requests to deal with things properly have been ignores so let's just get it over with.

I got a mention here, so I will just give my 2 cents. Not even 2 cents, just a few sentences
It was unfair.. Everyone should be treated equally. This isn't a democracy but still...

Are you guys going to respond to the comments made by us in this thread? Or just chit chat among each other.

Unless something went on behind the scenes, I'm pretty sure cfb mentioned it (actually as an example of the double standards), and Jeremy changed it before any mod took action.

You all watch out for each other so what's the point? Can't say you don't either as mark mannings reply to my report on you using the word "*****ing" was pretty much ignored as you can see... Hypocritical power hungry mods

OK, just wanted to make sure you were still here. Don't want to sound like I'm *****ing though.

So, instead of going on about how they aren't going to listen, let's try and get to the point, please? Ctm reopened this so we could have a discussion, so let's have one.
