There's been lots of threads closed due to us getting "off topic" on an off-topic forum(idk) but anyway I thought of trying this out. There's forums for almost everything and games going on, people even chatting in gaming threads, so I thought of making a thread just for those of us that feel a need for a notification just for chatting it up.
There's plenty of us that would want to be out and social 24/7 but then there's those that don't and the most sociality they get is from forums. Getting to the point, let's just start conversations here that we can't do elsewhere. Oh well let's see if this makes anything or gets closed too.

If you want to chat about a topic then see if a thread for that topic exists. If it does, great! Jump in and start chatting with people. If it doesn't, and if it doesn't break any rules, create a thread for it.

Very strange, and it was my first dream in a long time, let alone ever dreaming of a phone or software lol
so in my dream i had an in-person discussion with NilsP about his ROM about how i think he should add the 5 latest apps to the transparent dropdown. No biggie, 10min convo
Now im warped a few days later and im at like a BBQ party, and i meet someone and start showing him my phone and a few ROMs i had on backup
I pull down the transparent dropdown and see some chrome looking skulls, with red glowy eyes ... 5 of them across the top of the dropdown where the apps would be!!
So i say wtf is this? Maybe i never really broke in NilsP's ROM and its just now initializing or something??
Now the phone reboots itself and its some chromed skull theme, and the 5 recent apps are in the dropdown!!
In my dream i was kicking myself trying to figure out how the hell this ROM all of a sudden had it! Or did NilsP find a way to hack into my phone and add the feature i begged him for??
Last thing i remember is being puzzled and stumped, then i woke up
stupid as hell, but thats it lol
go ahead, flame away haha

Earlier today, I started a thread telling a little story about Android. But, for no reason, it was closed shortly after. No explanations, nothing.
I did it in the right section, it was not offensive or rude, I don't know what the hell I did wrong. I don't mind my topics being closed, but with no explanations, this is just bullsh*t.
If somebody could explain it to me, it'd be cool.

Thought it might be funny to tell a story about my two years using Android using a kinda-dramatic style, but I don't get where it's against the rules.
It's in the "off-topic" section, the same one where people tell the song they are currently listening to, or other things cool to share but not more relevant than my thread. As long as I don't infringe the basic rules, I don't get it.
You are kidding me right????

Contrary to popular belief, off-topic is not a place where you can open a thread for anything you like and it just flies. It follows the same rules that apply everywhere else in the forum. In this particular case, the rule is about not opening threads that already exist. I did link you to two threads that were relevant to your post.
As for this thread, if you have a problem with a mod decision then by all means question it, but don't open a thread to do it. Send a PM to the mod in question (namely me, in this case) and politely discuss it with them.

You are going to draw unwanted attention from a mod so I suggest you stop doing what you are doing in the fashion in which you are doing it. These restrictions are in place for a reason, mostly to stop spam posters.

If you have any other question afterwards you will know what to do.
One other thing. Is it so much to ask that you read for a bit first, pick up some knowledge and experience, help a few people in the 90+% of the site which is completely open to you, to participate with quality posts instead of BS posts, in return for being able to post into any of the ROM threads from any dev on this site?

There are already so many threads here in OT that you can post to for your ten post, it should be extremely easy for anybody that takes one minute to look. Use the 'game threads' like last letter and similar word and such. Problem solved.

Merging is no big deal to do, but all the posts are merged chronologically, so it would make reading the thread from the beginning very difficult. I think it would make more sense to close the existing threads and start a new dedicated one, if we were going to do anything with them.

I think that probably works best with what we've currently got, but without a thread where they all talk to each other how will we start an xda band??
I'm still not convinced though that we shouldn't have a dedicated thread. I play both guitar and keyboards, as well as doing computer generated music and would like talking about them all but that would take at least 3 threads. I'd like to talk about them all in one place.
Now I've typed that I'm thinking that one thread is the way to go. Undecided Archer is undecided.

I can only imagine scrolling through, and seeing 19 pictures of of someones guitar rig, links to bass sheet music, arguments about who actually invented the fiddle, and so on.
My point is that in the respective threads, people get pretty detailed about gear and preferences. It would be so frustrating to weed through all that for (in my case) drum related posts.

Maybe there could be individual threads for the major instruments, one for all other less common instruments, and one common thread for general music discussion and to work on recording the XDA theme song?

This is where the confusion steps in.
If it's all merged together, it makes it more awkward and irritating for the people commenting for different instruments etc.
But if it stays how it currently is, I can imagine people noticing that and it getting out of hand and eventually seeing a thread for the triangle players of the community.
It's just a case of working out the best option. Any suggestions from you Skinny?

Recently i was researching on OPO supported rom kitchen and i decided to ask in the DEV section in OPO forum
https://forums.oneplus.net/threads/opo-supported-kitchen.94937/#post-4648268
Read the thread and see...lets just say..i stopped posting there after that, cause its just pointless unless you wanna troll people and make stupid jokes
Funny part is one of the mods moved the thread to "Accessories" section
XDA is heaven by comparison
</rant>
The OnePlus One Forum is completly useless.
So glad there's a section for it here on XDA.
From time to time a check out the announcements and the last posts from steve kondik.
Besides that there is no reason to read, or post anything over there.
I also Found The official OnePlus Forums to be full of people being sarcastic to others even when asking a valid question
cant beat XDA
So many crybabies in the OP forum. Lower Antutu score than previous update? Rant. An app FC oftens? Rant. There's so many clueless user in that forum it makes my head hurts. I have to wonder why these guys even buy OPO in the first place if they don't even know how to Google and settle common problems. They don't even wanna learn using it. All they know are complains, then open a report at CM Jira which makes it even worse to track a real issue with OPO
That's just shameful.. Then again, any dev with respect for himself would turn to XDA. A "new" forum with invites begging isn't for devs. This place is made for it. <3

They heard this phone were harder to get than the iPhone so now they want that instead.. I have one thread I visit on that board. The rest is all XDA for me.

my thoughts exactly
CM Jira has become a damn discussion thread..you have to scroll through thousands of useless off-topic comments to get any valuable info sigh!!
I agree, opo need to sort it's forum out. It is bad business to have all those not so experienced people blaming, ranting and hiding the good stuff just because a bad organized forum. Doesn't look so good to all those customers...
The forum itself is a mix of rant heaven and noob hell...

Lol I agree it was a WTF moment anyway
FYI ArchiKitchen now supports OPO, JustArchi updated the device profiles and fixed a bug where it was not recognizing the ROM due to wrong order of model number in build.prop

It's funny tho, since 2010.. Before back then even, when I wasn't a member here yet, I've yet to see a thread like the one mentioned here. On XDA it's usually one troll.. Or people saying stuff isn't relevant, so on, so on..
But you're right. It's not going anymore. But I keep my statement about closing it.. Since it serves no purpose.

Yep I have become tired of the OPO forum. I would guess the average age of people posting is under 20. The people posting the BS over there think that they are "cool". Pretty much every other thread/post has something to do about getting an invite. Not to mention all the deleted posts, deleted threads and heavy censorship. No thanks.

^^^ What he said
there a few useful post here and there though, like this one listing all the ROMs, kernels and recoveries for the OPO: https://forums.oneplus.net/threads/full-collection-roms-recoveries-kernels.82526/ , however xda wins hands down.
So why bring that here and start ranting about it? Is this thread contributing anything positive to XDA?
Thread moved to Off-Topic because our OPO forum wasn't the correct place for a thread like this.
If the OP has a problem with it being here, I or someone else can go ahead and close this thread.
One word. Internet. Kid this is internet where you find people that are smart and people that are so dumb that using the word dumb is not enough but then again there are trolls that like messing with people alot!
