His was banned for 2 years for using another users xda account and that users account was giving him (Melvin) multiple thanks.

Please don't say that. The user set up multiple accounts without Melvin s permission and started thanking Melvin on those accounts. Melvin did not approve of that.

Beastmod continues @ droid-tech.net
Powered by the SGSII....
I guess he also cloned Melvins IP address
Think not!
Not to mention the kanging!
Yes it's a fact, he Kanged
Case Closed,
Too bad, so sad, bye, bye!
I'm sad to see him go, but he deserved it and knew better, yet still did it.
I admire his ability to promote himself.
I learned something from it!

I'm curious on how he was able to continue updating Beastmod if he was kanging from that get go from what people say. Kanging is a no no here at XDA so where were that mods then.
In my opinion every dev kangs at one point or another.
So does this mean we should ban all of them then? Where would XDA be at then.
But he was wrong for creating accounts to help him get devices and thanks.
Lucky for us there are other websites for us to get the rom.

I can't believe nobody ever noticed this but Melvin used to use a different name here on xda.. Bosina... And his roms were also called Beast Mod. He was always in trouble for kanging roms for the MT4G

Lol, they noticed alright! That's why he's banned. But unless people own different devices at once, its hard to see if people have different name. I never knew about Melvin until now.

For the most part I don't think the better developers don't waist their time downloading and checking out junior developers work, looking for stolen work.
And apparently, when it is brought to their attention, as in this case, they try to work through it quietly and professionally. But if the kanger, don't do the right thing and man up,, things get ugly!
Also
If you get kanged from and make it a public scene, no matter what you do, you are going to end up looking bad and soiling your rep.
It's best to be quiet, get the evidence, and let the mods handle it!
Melvin messed up royally!
He is a smart guy, he will learn from this and be back bigger and better than ever!
Hopefully sooner than later.

As it should be!
The trial is over, evidence with IP addresses were presented, the jury reviewed, and he was sentenced.
THE END
Best wishes Melvin!
Hope you learn, grow, and make a comeback!!
Melvin was kanging heavily from Team Kang. He copied and pasted Juggernaut and themed it. If you are a Beastmod user, flash Juggernaut and you'll see. Also he did not recieve permissions from Team Kang to use their work.

I highly think that everybody deserve's a second chance , he got caught but he's not the only one that has done it & i think that he should not recieve a two year ban for kanging i think he should recieve a month or so , i feel that , it's just too long of a time period .
Wow thanks for all the info .

The drama does not need to be re-livged on XDA. If you want to know what happened, ask him, do not post threads about it. Closed thread.
Is it just me or does anyone else feel that the multiplayer playlist choices are a bit of a let down. Yes I'm sure well see more with updates but I love my Big Team Battles and to constantly play Slayer is a bit boring. Bring back big team CTF & Assault and maybe a bit of Rocket Race for good measure.

It won't get lost, but it will get locked by one of the Mods.
Yes. This is Off-Topic, but XDA is a mobile phone site. OT is allowed and tolerated because it is well moderated, but ultimately there are far better places if you really want to discuss games. That is precisely why there is ONE thread for games discussion and all others get locked - otherwise OT would just be two hundred games threads and nothing else.

I'm new to these forums and since this thread has kind of become a META thread about the off-topic forum, then I'm going to say that I don't know if I like how the off-topic forum works.
I have only given off-topic an initial browse to see what it's like, but it looks like 75% of the posts are huge archive posts on a single topic. Then there are like 5 or 6 scattered threads of varying levels of interesting topics. Why not just let all the posts roam free?
Since I'm new here I'm only guessing, but I feel like the off-topic community is being unnecessarily divided into huge black holes of threads where nobody really gets to know anyone else. Am I wrong in the that guess? Or is there really a community of people who hang out in the off-topic forum and manage to keep tabs on one another within these huge threads?

Most of the regulars here know each other and know quite a bit about each other. There are some good people here and some muppets - if you hang around you will soon enough work out which groups people fall into (hint: I'm one of the muppets :silly.
The OT forum is really here for people to blow off a bit of steam and build a feeling of community, without needing to chat about phones and technology all the time - just like going down the pub after work with your colleagues and not talking about work. However some people seem to feel that they have an inherent right to just open a thread for anything they want - they social equivalent of meeting your colleagues down the pub and starting to chat about sex with animals - not what the rest of the group want to discuss.

That's cool that a group of regulars persists here. I was a regular of the off topic forum at xbox.com back in the day, so I know what off topic forums can be like. The forums back then didn't have these huge archive posts though, like this forum has. It was more like jungle rules, I guess you could say, so I was just worried that the jungle rules were what made that off topic forum special for me.
But if you say that the archive threads work, then that's cool. I just have to get used to them, I guess.

In that case, petition the people who matter to get a forum created just for games to be discussed - then you can have as many threads as you want.
Hi,
As people are slowly starting to receive their devices, it would be helpful to know when the first wave of devices is hitting.
If you have received your HTC One, please comment also on which country you are in and what kind of seller(retailer/provider) did you use.
Apologies if this thread inteferes with forum fules, as first time thread creator here.
PS. Do not select the last poll option, because no way to RE-Vote
I dont see any poll
me neither
Poll created, took a bit time
Sorry, got carried away. For somehow, there is no way to revote(after receiving the device). If mods can change that then it would be great. Otherwise i will go and sit in a corner with shame in my eyes.

I agree it could actually be announced tomorrow, since if it's going to be available on Oct 31st/Nov. 1st, they have to announce it earlier, and press invites have to go out. Well it's too late for regular press invites for people to fly & attend in person, so Google may just do it online. But what is your source for "knowing this as a fact"?

Thank you for sharing this information. Honestly we do care and are very greatful for it, its just we needed that little bit more info on the source, as you may have seen its very easy for people to just claim they know things and post them publically and with tensions running so high as we are very happy about the device I feel many of us jumped to conclusions.
Yea, there have been many rumours about the release in the past which makes us difficult to believe on any1

My suggestion, dont use safe terms like:
