Xda tv - what do you want to ask captainkrtek?

My show on xda tv will be an interview show. For the first episode, I will give captainkrtek a proper interview.
Captainkrtek is a forum moderator, news writer, server admin, and is diving into android app development. Please post questions you would like me to ask him here.
Thanks!

^^ when was this??? I want to ask hIm!!!

I would like to know how he feels about companies like motorola that seem hostile to custom ROM development on their hardware? I would also like to know how he feels about the direction android development seems to (is taking) with the different versions for tablets versus phones? Sorry if I asked silly questions.

I guess you'll have to watch to find out
In all seriousness though, I will be using silly questions here and there to lighten the mood, so yeah, I'll probably use it

Ask him if scrizz ever gave him those bacon cookies and if he abandoned the galaxy sense project for the fascinate. Tell him bubby323 can help him out.

Wow. You guys are all so scary!

Just signed up and can i say this is the first time I've signed up to a forum and been intimidated!
Ive seen the intro vid...gold! (person no# 283,987!) woohoo!
Was just wondering how folk like me(handsome...yet noob to the core!) get around XDA without being torn a new hole? I like people and having one hole so not sure if i wanna start a thread without getting the inside scoop!
Nice to me you all! i think?

Welcome !

Youl usually will be flamed when:
- posting questions in development and not in Q&A
- starting another thread that's already been posted, discussed and answered 20+ times. Obviously not searching.
- not following directions then bashing the dev for your mistake.
- asking/bugging devs for ETA's
- posting fanboy threads bashing the device in that device forum.
Most of these are general written xda rules. Welcome to the forum. Xda will be your best friend.

Hey dude welcome to xda and the best sub forum off topic

Welcome to XDA, if you don't leave now the addiction only grows stronger.

Welcome you'll come to find that we're all not so mean. There are some mean people of course, but don't let them get to you. Always try to be respectful, polite and search before posting a thread with some questions and you'll be fine

LOLOLOL at member friendliness. Mod's and Dev's are usually pretty friendly unless you bug the crap out of them. And you won't get ban hammered unless you go against the forum rules.
You should be fine as long as don't do anything too crazy.

Let's Have a Discussion

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.
@NotATreoFan @Judge Joseph Dredd @MikeChannon @M_T_M
@svetius @P1Tater
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
@roofrider
@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.

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.

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.
