New rules request. - Off-topic
Hi. We need a new rule: Anyone who starts a "Thanks thread", will be banned. These threads are really annoying, especially for Archer I think.

I ban the person above me because im drunk, and he's in sweden, but he's Polish so he's cool. Don't ban him.
I thin everyone that doesnt have 10 posts and clicks on "Off Topic" should be banned.

You just don't get it, do you.
Sent from your mom.
is this one of those chain threads?
if so, then everyone who forces people to hit the "Thanks" button should be temporarily banned.
TEMPORARILY.

Hmmmm....this seems a lot like a "thanks thread" disguised as a rules tread.
I'm pretty sure this will get locked. Because you know. What does the majjority have to say aboout how this forum works. If it's open in the morning I'll post more when I'm sober.
The first person to Thank the OP will be creating a paradox!
The last few 'need new rules' and 'ranting about newbies' threads got locked. What d'you reckon will happen to this one, hm?

There's a thread in the About xda-developers forum called (requests) From the Users to the Mods & Admins.
That's the place to post things like this.
So you see, you can actually be off-topic in off-topic

As the thread title describes, please, for the benefit of all, make sure to quote the OP (and do so often). Threads can digress from the original subject-matter, and it's necessary to quote the OP in order prevent permanent derailment.

Off Topic Mods Troll Battle 2012.TAKE THE NOOBS OUT OF OT
What: Trolling battle between xda's biggest trolls. Also known as "Moderators" and "Senior Moderators". Everyone in the Off Topic for some time knows When: 13/6/2012 starting from 10:00 am GMT time. 24 hour competition How: Each mod taking part should post here. Again this is a Mod Battle. Only Mods allowed. You can start from here and expand in the rest of OT. Everything is allowed, use your creativity. Greatest troll wins. OT members will be the judge Why: Because you've been waiting for so long for this. And because off topic is becoming boring. Its a challenge from OT people This thread can be locked and abused in any way you wish, but not deleted. It is needed to post the winner Have fun Cancelled. Why? look down
And I quote... M_T_M said: It will create a competitor type atmosphere amongst Mods. Also, I don't see a single mature and ethical Mod getting involved in such behavior Click to expand... Click to collapse And I'm not a performing seal. I have enough work on my hands cleaning up after people that can't retain a simple set of rules in their tiny minds. Thread closed.

troll time !!!! Quick !!
so.. ib4l again
hurry before this useless waste of forum space gets closed agai.....aww, he done close it already
The future of off-topic
I'm getting annoyed with all the noobs posting here trying to get 10 posts to post in the development forums. Implying XDA OT is a democracy we should have a vote, and not have the mods/admins listen to us anyway. And knowing me, this will get locked, but I heard Archer likes commas, so, ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,. Vote in the poll if you want members to have at least 10 posts to post in out glorious Off-Topic.
It should just be 10 posts to start a thread anywhere and if they have less than 10 posts and get reported the post "disappears" until a mod can check it out.
Count me as a yes until I get to a pc, and I can vote properly. Sent from somewhere....if I could only remember where....
