MODS AND READERS: THIS IS NOT MEANT TO BE A POLITICAL DISCUSSION.
It is just about how some things can be forgotten.
Looks like Jeb Bush forgot to register www.JebBush.com in all of the url's he registered for the campaign.
Looked who snapped it up!!!

Help me define. Simple HOW OFF is Off-Topic?
Does anyone know...?
lol... give your best shot.. IQ
LEGO comes to mind.
I never see people here helping each other build cool lego models..
So in other words, you're asking what's OFF Limits in a OFF-TOPIC section? Hmmm .... threats of any kind, damning or belittling(sp?) someone else's religious or political beliefs, making fun of people physical/emotional/psychological disabilities even if it's your friends or family member. Promoting racism, child porn, child abuse, advocating violence, and supporting rape is a definite no no and barbaric in my book. Making fun of someone's grief over a death of a friend or family is also barbaric.
Or how off limits can you be Off Topics section without being banned? As some say, the sky is the limit, but here, the limit is the sky, lol. Child rearing and relational issues are within the bounds in this section, which I haven't heard much about here. But who knows

Your previous post, sending people to survey links would definitely be off limits. Creating threads for free webhosting sites over and over again would also be off limits. Spam is something we try to avoid. Members help by alerting mods to these types of posts. Violators can be warned or banned, depending on the severity of their actions.
I'd also agree with the things robosiris said earlier, as we'd like to keep this forum a friendly place for all to enjoy.
Other than that, off-topic is pretty open. Lego Mindstorm projects would be a great topic
...so off-topic isnt really Off-Topic? or is Everything aother than xda phones
NOT SPAM JUST READ ON...( For MODERATOR )
or is anything other than xda phones, softwares and gadgets considered as SPAM. Yes i do agree maybe I erred since I was kinda "zit" where the "limit" of Off-topic was concerned, no one would expect it to be so ENTIRELY "LIMITED"...
I STRONGLY agree 1000% with "robosiris" stuff like that should NEVER be tolerated... and commend XDA moderators+ for being swift on posts and for implementing this feature in their Administration.
Ok then, is it better to QUIT Off-Topic? Since "Off" is not yet defined...
SINCE the statement below contradicts the usual statements i get... "your topic is not related to phones, etc..... always about xda phones... and so on..."
Then IS THAT "Off-Topic"? yet according to Alex (moderator)... Of-topic is Defined...as pretty much Free..

I've changed my post to read 'off-limits' instead of 'off-topic' in two key areas, which should hopefully make more sense.
It was late and I didn't realize I was using the same words to explain myself, which tends to lead to a very confusing response
i simple do not know and even do not care what is in and what out - off topic.
but .... am glad to have a place where i can relax and read some other stuff than all about htc devices.
this is where i go when i need to get three steps back and after a while again move forwards install applications, customize, soft reset, hard reset, browse and read off topic, install applications, customize, soft reset, hard ... ;-)
cheers
Everyday I see that the First World countries talk about equality, especially for man and woman and their propaganda to implement equality in third world countries where allegedly women are abused and treated like slaves. Then how come it is that only the 3rd world countries have had women head of states till now, with the exception of UK?

Hypocrisy at it's utlimate?
I think you have a point, but with all the respect to you here (XDA) is no place to discuss this. There are plenty of forums that relate to this topic. At the end, this is a political issue and I just wanted to tell you that it's against the rules and probably this thread will be closed by a mod.
2. Be polite and respect your fellow xda-dev user.
There is no need for cursing, flaming, racism or personal attacks. There are a lot of different nationalities on this forum all with different cultures, this means that no matter what you're like, you'll have to adjust to people that are most definitely not like you. For this reason we'd like to ask you to refrain from discussions about religion or politics, we do not wish to limit your right to free speech, but we have noticed these topics tend to get heated and might be best discussed in a different environment. It will gain you a lot of respect if you help to keep the peace. It's disrespectful and therefore not permitted to create Alias Member names in an attempt to deceive others.
Amen clown brother
Agreed. Not sure if this is politics. I am not discussing Republics, Democrats, Labor Party, or a specific candidate.

Hey! So my dad has recently lost his job, due to his decaying health(Struck by Lightning). So I'm trying to help get the word out about his blog. If you all don't mine, Check it out. For some reason I can't post links, so just google 'truthtroubles', It's the first link.
Also, open to feedback.
Edited by me, myself and I!
Thread closed!

Alright.
So yeah, there's just one other memes thread, but it has died out, so I thought I'd start a new one here.
Basically, you posts memes here, related to XDA, devving etc.
The rules are the same, little trolling is tolerated, but not hating or flaming, and absolutely no NSFW stuff or stuff with Sexual References.
Let the Fun begin
Cheers
The memes thread was merged with the images thread. Please use that

The last thread was closed and posts were deleted due to discussion that broke the rules. I've made a new thread to keep the off-topic conversation flowing.
Tonight I went to Taco Bell with a buddy of mine to eat and shoot the breeze. We were just about to leave when one of the male employees (Jerry or something) came up and took our tray and asked us if we heard about Paul Walker. We were like "yeah, it's a shame." Jerry starts telling us how he looked up to Paul Walker and how he was such a great guy and he loved his Fast and Furious movies. Then he started getting emotional about the people posting horrible things about Mr. Walker on Facebook and how "John Stantham" (Jason Stathem we presumed) commented on Mr. Walker's page saying "cool it guys, show some respect for the man". And Jerry is freaking out because he loves John Stantham and Paul Walker, and says, "it has to be John Stantham cuz in his profile picture it's a picture of John Stantham, right?". Jerry comments under Mr. Stantham about how he agrees with him and how Mr. Walker was a wonderful man. Mr. Stantham replies to Jerry and Jerry was so emotional at this point he had to return the trays and go back to work.
It was bizarre to say the least. Any other bizarre stories from your lives?
yeah.... how about no
If that last thread was closed, it was closed for a reason
thread closed again
