Seriously, do u see anyone discussing warez in these forums? What's wrong with you?
They are changing host and are experiencing some difficulties with this, expect them to pop again up any day now.
That said this site is primarly a forum, a forum isn't per any definition I am aware of, "warez".

Ban him! and ban everyone else who says warez in this thread.
Oh wait...

I have a legal background and I don't see anything wrong with answering this type of questions!!! We all are aware that xda does not support that kind of stuff or activity however been informed and let some of the users know what's going on with those sites it’s a different story!
xda does not support nor endorse these sites and as far as I understand if any of its users do not brake this rules they can post wherever the hell they want
Some people need to grow up! My two cents!

Pehaps a wink might have made that clearer.
As no requests for warez were made or offered, what harm has been done?
"where-is" waldo? oops, I said warez
You would think that people would be nice enough to at least keep from asking a forum which consists of developers where to pirate software. Some of us make the software you're trying to pirate you jerk. Even if we knew what happened to the site we probably would just hope the same thing happens to you. If you're going to pirate software have the common sense to shut up about it and contact people privately via PM or AIM or something. DAMN that just pisses me off.
I don't think that it says anywhere any the fourm rules that you have the right not to ever be offended. & hey, nowhere does it say you have to be intelligent to join the forum.
So, until the implement an IQ test for registration stop being a grumpy @ss & realize that God gave us idiots to give aus a few good laughs thru the day.
I frequently check were-is sites to see whats hot & if I happen to have an item in development that's the buzz.
Besides, PPCW is a weird bunch that I have seen ban some proggies b'cause of a developers request.
I also happen to know that one of the most visited sticky pages in Kaiser forum was posted by a diehard were-is community member. I'm relatively certain you've probably downloaded at least one of his posted items. But, it's okay when it's not warez & only posted by a warez supporter & it's something you want, right?
Besides, to be frank, I've seen alot of people come to OEM after trying out the warez b'cause alot of these warez guys are hacks & have sloppy cracks that disable or distort true proggy function.
Guys, I lock the thread and remove all occurences of the warez site.
Please do not even write down its name. Thanks!
I sent an e-mail to team dealing XDA Portal for pointing why our beloved members of the Team Canjica its not already RD.
Waiting for an answer and I'll post it soon will.
This is what i write to :
Subject:
Team Canjica - a team of members (not devs) who develop for Galaxy S Advance I9070
Body:
Why there is no article about Canjica Team, the team that develops from long time ROMs for our phones Galaxy S Advance GT I9070 , or other phones who have novathor chipset like Codina, Janice, Hudson and others?
I think it is a great injustice that team members to disclose sources on github (https://github.com/TeamCanjica) and other users, like Maclaw (actually New Maclaw), who is banned one time, receive laurels, especially considering the fact that not disclose the sources and the remaining activity as it should be in Open Source projects.
Please take this into consideration so that team members are on the threshold of giving up, because of injustice, software development and the fact that you not even consider to be promoted to the stage RD (Recognized Developer).

Razvan

Let's send PM's to moderators and / or administrators to see/receive an official response from them.
I was thinking of doing the same actually. I'll send each of the forum moderators a mail.
Even if they shoot our requests down, at least they'll know what is going on.

I was wondering... This refusal of rd status sounds pretty ridiculous to me. After all the whole team canjica has done a great deal for our device, right? So what could be the reason to deny them the rd status? Maybe they're short on resources and can't afford to give all these privileges to all the members of the team? Maybe that's why they put so much stress on individual work?
Such a blunt "no" has to hide something behind. If we could understand what that is maybe we could find at the very least a compromise of sort. Like a rd account shared by the whole team, maybe?
Just asking.
Sent. That's it.

Send it to one, not all mods, otherwise it may seem like you're spamming.. And RAZVAN great mail but I suggest you remove the "not devs" part from the thread name because they are as "dev" as any other RD in this forum. We want XDA to know they ARE devs who are not getting the credit and facilities they deserve to contribute better

Hi,
Users must apply to become a Recognized Developer through filling in the RD Application Form available here >>> http://www.xda-developers.com/recognized-developer-program/. These applications are then processed by the Developer Committee who use this portal post of minimum requirements for being an RD as the assessment criteria.

No you won't. If I or any of the other forum moderators get our inboxes spammed the user responsible for this will be dealt with accordingly. If you must e-mail someone, only email 1 of us, not all of us. Though to be honest my above post says all you need to know.

Hi,
The minimum requirements for being a Recognized Developer can be found here >>> http://www.xda-developers.com/recognized-developer-program/rd-minimum-requirements/. If a user does not meet the high standards we have come to expect from RD's then the Developer Committee will not grant them the RD status.
And whilst you can have a team account, team account's will not be granted RD status as the RD program is to recognize individuals for their work.
Even Mr.Harsh Should be given some credit...He is the one who brought Dual boot to sgsa..
When Dual boot was brought in galaxy s , it was displayed in the portal
I think that is enough to know. For the momment.
I reported this thread, and Jonny responded immediately to my request and made known the way to go to become a recognized developer.
Thanks Jonny!

Why send a complaint about a person for RD status to the portal team??? They have absolute zip to do with the applications for RD. You are wasting your time.
Any no, it is not for users to go about PM'ing or e-mailing anyone and everyone trying to get a user RD status, that is for ONLY the user involved and the Developer Committee. Please stop this frankly ridiculous behavior and let the user involved contact the DC account.

Also 1 last point before this thread gets put to sleep.
With reference to the Maclaw part of the PM, I've noticed a lot of invalid reports going through the RP system about Maclaw over the last few days so let me clear up a few of the points that seem to be getting mis-interpreted.
1. They do not have to provide the ROM source. CyanogenMod and other AOSP ROM's are Open-Sourced under the Apache 2.0 License which states source code does not have to be published. It is the developers choice whether or not to publish ROM source.
2. The only thing that for which the source code needs to be published for is the Linux kernel as this is under the GNU General Public License (GPL) v2.
3. I'm well aware of the entire history behind Maclaw - I was the moderator who dealt with it last time around so please, no more RP's detailing the history of Maclaw

True, however, it is the Developer Committee alone that deals with RD applications, rejections and complaints regarding this. No other usergroup interferes as a matter of principle - not even the admins. The DC are fully capable of handling these sorts of things as there are developers from all major platforms that form the DC.
Ok, I'm closing this thread. If you have anymore concerns about this then feel free to drop me a PM.
Hi Y'all. I remember way back there was an app that would help you "cheat" games. But I can't fine it or anything like it anymore. So I was wondering if anybody has or know of an app that could do the same or at least help cheat. TY
So Everyone is clear I'm not trying to steal,cheat,or make any kind of money nor take money from anyone. I am simply asking for good old fashion cheats like unlimited ammo or infinite health. Again its for the free apps not the paid one's.

Hello, ChicHit and welcome to our community!
I have closed this thread for a couple of reasons:
1-This looks as if you are recruting people and this is not allowed here in XDA for commercial purposes
2-I've removed your contact info to avoid getting trolled by anyone, hope you understand.
I will suggest to contact @jergdog, he is in charge of OEM relations. He can help you with any questions you may have. You can also contact an Admin. See this page for contact information.

Hello m0han, the first time I had the update of the fox manager same concern. The update days no longer concern magisk in place root ok, see when I turn it off whether magisk root jumps or not.

I've already asked @Bill720 to provide more information to @m0han as Bill was the one who moved the post out of a thread and instead created a new thread out of this post. Please let me know if you like more information privately.
@m0han Mam, Sir! I hope you agree that we don't require your consent at all if a post by you created in whatever thread is converted to an own thread. You voluntarily decided to post information on XDA but it's solely on the XDA staff to decide where the correct location for your post is. I'm convinced you're going to receive more information by @Bill720 but due to his real life I'm aware about it might last 4 - 5 days. Fell free to privately contact Bill 720.

Mam, Sir!
I've to admit I'm "surprised" that you intended to discuss this event publicly although as you've pinged us @Timmmmaaahh! and I were well known to you. Due to your ping, I even released an at that point obviously closed information, informed you who (@Bill720) handled your post and suggest you to contact him. For whatever reason you decided to stay public and to belittle our moderation and moderators' capability as my partially quote above shows.
I'm just now 3 1/2 years into the moderation business at XDA, and if you monitored me my moderation style has changed over the years and months - something that permanently occurs in real life. And I can assure you that we always - I repeat ALWAYS - handled everything including clean-ups to the most fair and clean extend. However, all of our moderators are humans; XDA doesn't use any AI like Google etc. When you registered on this private website 10 years ago, you most likely didn't note or meanwhile just ignored that this website has grown up to more than 11 miliion users, 75+ million posts in 3.5+ million threads. I'm not looking for excuses, especially not on a weekend, but did you ever relate this to the number of moderators? You're free to count them here. All these very few moderators are volunteers who do this "job" absolutely for free and just by our dedication to the XDA Forum besides our real lifes, real families and friends, real businesses and occupations. If you believe we get anything like devices etc. for free; negative, there's nothing.
And if you now believe I'm upset by your public posts: This is absolutely correct!
If you don't like how my fellow moderators or I handle the XDA Forum, I think there are two alternatives I suggest to you:

Sometimes, life can be funny. I'll respectfully challenge you on "without being asked" and "leaving it half done," however, since those seem to be the biggest sticking points.
Your post was reported by another member, so that should help clear up the "without being asked" aspect of the inquiry. As far as "leaving it half-done" is concerned, the posts you mentioned do not explicitly mention that Fox2Code program. If you're convinced that they belong in this thread, feel free to let me know, and I'll be happy to move them to complete the cleanup.
While your post didn't explicitly reference Fox2Code's program either, being the post that was reported, it received the bulk of the scrutiny. I took the liberty of running a web search to try and piece it together for everyone's sake. Once done, I grafted out posts that appeared to have been obviously related into their own thread, where I still believe that they rightfully belong (rather than remaining as off-topic posts in an unrelated thread).

You'll have to point that one out to me, as I did not personally perform any further cleanup in the thread aside from what was moved to this one. To reiterate, I'm not here to ruin anybody's day or single anybody out, so, if you feel that any straggler posts remain in that thread that should obviously be in this one, (stemming from your original off-topic post) you are more than welcome to let me know.

when that someone reported my post, did he/she request you to create a new thread? you could've simply deleted that post, since you seemed to agree with him/her that it was ot.
@meric57, @Stillhard, @huskydg all mentioned 'fox' - check screenshots in my post above - those posts remain in place (i didn't even mention that name, did i?). if a thread had to be created, at all, it had to be in @meric57's name.
it's surprising, to put it mildly, that you don't get the picture although marked screenshots have been provided in serial order for quick perusal.
it may be noted that the closing sentence in my first post here (the first three posts are by the mods) was to delete the thread.

What I find most surprising is that you're putting us on the spot here without any clear reason. This isn't the first time that you're challenging us with your vision on how we should moderate. If you think it's that easy and you can do better, then by all means: become a moderator. But I will not have my team mates being insulted for doing their volunteer work in good conscience. Such lack of respect for all what we do for this community is unfounded and uncalled for. For what, even? Because we didn't cater to your needs and you feel we have some sort of bias in an internet forum cleanup? All while we are always up for discussing this with anyone that has any questions about our moderation. You will need to bring some harder evidence to the table before ridiculing us like that. We will always approach a cleanup in a way that we feel is the most objective one and of course that will disadvantage some people. That is just a reality we all have to deal with in all sorts of aspects in life.

That's not how it works, though! You can't just insult us and then tell us to wipe it under the rug in the same breath. You've picked your battle and now we'll settle it. Throw anything at us and we'll gladly explain our actions.
It still doesn't make any sense to me what any of us did wrong here. Only 3 of your posts were removed on August 5 in a large cleanup of "Magisk General Support / Discussion", which we have already discussed in private, after which you stated to me: "Case closed. Thank you.". In that private conversation I stated "...such busy threads are really hard to moderate and it requires a tremendous amount of patience to remain neutral all the time. I am not immune to this either, we are still human beings. We do try hard though ", which still very much stands.
After that one more of your posts was removed last Saturday, which contained "i feel for you", a response you outed to another member that had mildly insulted you with the words "you mad?", which was also removed.
Are you know hunting other members that post anything even remotely off topic? Because we'll only step in if we feel it's needed to, not because you're telling us to. That doesn't go well with any form of authority. That said, all of our members are encouraged to report anything that potentially violates our terms and we will 100% look into it.

What I find utmost surprising is that you still don't see that it was not me who started with 'fox'; yet you chose my post to start the thread. Why? Is somebody 'reporting it' reason enough to drag someone else into a mess?
So, you're saying 'xda mods can be funny' (wonder if haha-funny would've been ok, as you seemed to imply) is insulting and 'you mad?' is not, as is mentioning contents of PMs in open threads.
Anything I do is wrong and anything the mods do is A-OK, right? I think I know where this is headed.

when that someone reported my post, did he/she request you to create a new thread? you could've simply deleted that post, since you seemed to agree with him/her that it was ot.
@meric57, @Stillhard, @huskydg all mentioned 'fox' - check screenshots in my post above - those posts remain in place (i didn't even mention that name, did i?). if a thread had to be created, at all, it had to be in @meric57's name.
it's surprising, to put it mildly, that you don't get the picture although marked screenshots have been provided in serial order for quick perusal.

The person who reported the post did not request that I split the off-topic chatter into its own thread. My own common sense requested that. I try not to make a habit of deleting posts for no reason, so that is the reason for the chosen course of action.

Again, if you feel that there were other posts that should also have been grafted into this thread, you're welcome to let me know. At the time, during my brief assessment, I moved only the posts that appeared to be obviously and directly related. Sometimes, during this cleanup process, it is possible that some items were missed.
Anything you do is wrong, as long as it's not right. Keeping the forums clean is everyone's responsibility, however, so I hope that this answers your question adequately.

No, it does not. Let me try to elucidate - again: It was not me who started with 'fox'; yet you chose my post to start the thread. That is wrong, since it is not right.
You, being a mod, can move the first post regarding 'fox' to the top of this thread making it the 'op'; everything else can follow that in chronological order.
And, you can go ahead and move all the other 'fox' posts to this thread since you term them as that being off-topic in the threads they are in at the moment - if you don't plan/wish to delete them, i.e.

Hello everyone, no need to worry about this. I am seeing on gitub with fox2code for this problem which persists, today updated 0.6.3 of fox manager for magisk rebelotte. message in red and magisk root absent so I have to reflash with odin.
I've moved the relevant posts over.

Having your post moved over to a dedicated thread - making you the op - is dragging you into a mess? Okay. Solved. When we receive a report about something it catches our attention, we will act or we won't as we deem necessary.

Oh, we're hilarious, but it turns a bit darker when someone's throwing insults at us. Again, that 'mad' part was also removed, which is us saying it's not allowed. You're again twisting this to discredit us.

Just the insults, that was the breaking point. So please, take a lesson from all this: if you believe thread maintenance wasn't performed properly, find out which mod performed it (ask any mod) and address them privately. Or just make another report. Then explain what should've been done differently in a friendly manner. And no, of course we're not perfect or everything we do is always "A-OK", that's what I also kept communicating. Just know that we do our very best to keep this community clean and welcoming to all and there's much more than meets the eye to achieve that goal.
