Favourite apps? - Off-topic

With XDA's search still not being too useful at the moment, a search brought me nowhere.
Is there a thread where you can mention your favourite apps and pros/cons and suggest apps to others?
If so, just get rid of this and link me there. But if not, would that be a good idea you think?

Maybe if you re-search and spell "favorite" correctly you might find one or two. Or a hundred!!

It still takes work because a lot of seemingly unrelated threads show up...just take time and skim til you see what's mostly relevant.
In other words, search is nowhere near perfect. But starting a new thread out of laziness won't get someone very far.
And why would I expect another thank from you, Mr. 1000?

** Off-Topic vBulletin hidden features **

I recently discovered that you can edit the title of a thread you made from the thread list, by double-clicking the thread row (not a link on the row, but the row itself).
I just wondered if anyone knows of any other "hidden features" in vBulletin (what xda is built on).
There's this one as well, that's not shown in the editor but it works
Oh no! You have discovered our secret to quick editing!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=846294
I found this out a while ago. Awesome huh? xD
But looking at the pic I posted.. Back when the ban thread had only 1500 posts
Nice find. I can say that, having also found it
Now I'm hungry for moar!
Isn't that typical? A Brit makes a discovery, only to find that it had already been discovered before.. by a Brit!
err, wait...what??
Anyway, British pioneering spirit is what we have here. We'll discover things twice before the rest of the world even hears about them! So there.
Is this a conspiracy against us
Don't know if this would count,

I LOVE this feature!
I'm not sure if this is purely xda doing this, but I suspect as much.
Just highlight some text in a post and you should get a magnifying glass next to it. That pops up a dialog box that does a contextual search on xda for you.
It does make me wonder what else there is though.

Amount of thread closures

As we know, moderators have a certain limit of thread closures over a select period of time.
Now, do certain mods get a higher amount than others?
I ask this because in the international galaxy S2 forum, there's only 2 mods yet it's one of the busiest forums on here.
Whereas, there's 3 mods in General-Questions & Answers but it's a less active area.
So do certain mods get more closures, or do SMs have to jump in the bigger sections to close threads when the other mods have reached their limit?
Eh?
Generally speaking, busier forum = more mods.
There are no limits to how many threads a mod can close.
For a more detailed explanation see here.
I thought there was a limit
Ah well, I guess I was wrong for once
