Just lost another Dev - Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE

I just noticed that another dev has left over a bunch of bull. I don't understand this forum for this device. I have had this phone for just under a month and seems like devs drop it right and left. I may get dropped from this site for speaking my opinion, but I find this place gets more childish as time goes on. I think it is great we have moderation, but there's a point when it goes over board. I'm seeing more and more devs not even posting there work here. Shame a great site is going down so quikly.

Not sure of what happened exactly, but on any forum, the mods are the ones responsible for keeping everyone in check. With that being said, I think that we have too few mods here, because it looks like things got out of hand way before the mods closed the thread or really did anything.
More mods means that someone might have been able to calm everyone down, or at least punish the offending party satisfactorily. There should never be a thread closed for something as great as the Devs make here because of some jackoff who ruins it for everyone.
I know that the mods can't be everywhere all the time....but maybe a few more wouldn't hurt.
Just something to think about.
Edit: fee to few*

What was he involved in

Not really involved in any thing just fed up with the politics of things. I see and agree where he is coming from! While I hope he changes his mind and continues to put out his work for the jewel, I completely support him!

Seemed like a good dude - hope he comes back.

+1. I feel worse, because I was flashing stuff and I didn't get the updated PAC before it disappeared. I hope the next phone I get is something he'll be working on. Also blows because I was looking forward to the FirefoxOS that he had in the works.
I know he's not the only good dev, but he -was- a good one.

Listen he left to go dev for the note 2 which is the device he just picked up.
Everyone needs to stop with the drama.
By that I mean each dev is free to do as they please and go where they want. This garbage last night was just that and it will be dropped as of this post
Mazda's threads are set up correctly and credited correctly. He is GPL compliant and there are no issues
Jamie's comments last night...while having a little merit should have been dealt with in private and not brought into a public forum.
Unless you have the whole story between these two devs (which 99.999% of u do not) then I'd recommend minding ur business and not starting more issues or taking sides as its not ur place nor do u have any idea what your talking about.
Feel free to contact me via pm if u wish to ask me questions...if I don't answer then that means its none of ur business.

What's up with you giving everyone crap for making a thread. Ya, some threads I'm sure xda could live without but atleast this person and the other that you were giving a hard time posted this in the general section and not the development. Calm down and let the mods do there job. If they think this is a waste than they'll close it but I see no problem with it.

I'm sure you can but that's the problem with xda lately. A lot of people are more worried about bashing each other or policing forums then they are helping one another. Don't get me wrong, there is things that shouldn't be posted and there are threads that shouldn't be started but guess what, that's not my job to say what's good and what isn't. When I first came to xda it was such a great place to learn and I had so many people that helped me and if it weren't for them I wouldn't know half of what I know now. Not saying I know alot but now days I can't imagine coming here and being new and asking a question. Ok. I'm done. Usually don't get into stuff like this but I used to love xda and I've learned so much from this place and I use to really enjoy hanging out here but things have just fallen apart.

Even when I joined back in March **** wasn't this way. The EVO 4G forums were so ridiculously cool and laid back there. That's why I joined, I wanted an easygoing community. Sad to see XDA shaping up to be the way it is... the drama between Virus and JoelZ9614 in the EVO 4G forums today was insane...
It got ugly between them, and yup EVO forums back In the day were awesome any question you asked was nicely awnsered and wasnt thrown back at you calling you an idiot or some other harsh word that are beign used today. It wansnt till I got in the EVO 3D forums were I saw a bunch of B.S that was childish to begin with. XDA has changed for the worst.

What's really good here?

As of late, there have been numerous outbursts by forum members that have caused this forum to go haywire and this place isn't as welcoming as it should be. A great Dev has already raised his concerns for the hostility that has occurred and it is obvious OUR actions have been the root of this issue.
I know we're all excited about this new phone and the possibilities once S-Off is achieved but we really need to come together and combine our knowledge (some more than others obviously) and make this a great experience for all. There will be many new "faces" to android and HTC phones in general which do not know how things work but let's try to be patient and not snap back with snooty or disrespectful remarks.
At the end of the day, we are all here to improve our device ad increase in knowledge. It takes respect to earn respect so let's keep it cool between all of us (members, Devs, & Mods) so we may continue to be productive and learn.
Basically keep your effin mouth shut and fingers still unless u have something real to add. Any problems u have with someone keep it in pm's. One of the biggest reasons why this forum sucks and alot of ppl left and refuse to come back. Grow up and shut up

Why all the hostility guys? Let's take a step back and relax. I don't care if this is XDA, Android Forums, RootzWiki... they're all here for us to communicate about the devices and to help each other. I enjoy getting on the forums and helping to troubleshoot issues or to celebrate new modifications for our devices, but it makes it difficult when everyone is fighting each other.
Let's just be calm and patient. We're very close to having Rezound freedom. Once it's official, things will be much calmer and everyone will want to work together on this device!

A Request.

I would like to make a request to the community.
We, as a community really need to shape-up. This place is absolutely crazy. There are harmless threads that turn into spam and people complaining about aosp. The fact is we need to stop this. All of you know you hate this too but stooping down to the level of these trolls only makes things worse.
What we really need is for the mod team to really come down hard on this place. Not just the trolls but everyone. Everyone has a role in this.
People need to be infracted or banned or whatever and these threads need to be sent to the damn trash.
This isn't just a job for the mods either. Users need to stop feeding the fire that trolls start.
We need to take the initiative to shape up before this community goes down as the one that scared everyone off and died. Seriously think about it...
I've been wondering why people aren't banned.

Mikion and Chef Holmes have both been temporarily disabled I think. They both flamed the hell out of all Joelz's threads.
I don't get what the dispute is between XDA and The MikMik. They're both resources for Android development so it makes no sense? If it were Android vs iOS, maybe I'd understand more but this is lunacy.
Developers such as Newt and Scott both frequent both sites and share their work on both so what's the big deal?

The mods are still around. I posted a farewell thread the other day and decided to change the title of the OP and tell everyone about it (sorry about that by the ways guys).
Now that thread has been completely removed, so they're definitely still active...
The ironic part about it, is that I'm still on the Rezound forums even though I bought a Nexus (I still own my Rezound though so I guess I'm allowed - no more trolling, I swear).

Yep, and every time someone tries to bring up the xda drama the mods/admins tell everyone to stop. They are definitely taking the high road for the most part.
My opinion, we need to just stop already. These threads are just giving validity to our reputation. We all just need to relax, be respectful to each other, and show some appreciation for the work that the devs do for us for free.
As for the dev on dev public fighting - this just needs to not be tolerated. Period. Either take it to PM, or just shrug your shoulders and say "meh" and keep on keeping on. The only thing the public fighting does is get the rest of the community fired up and then the bashing amongst the devs fans starts. I think the public dev fighting is what really tarnishes this community. Their are always *****y, ungrateful, douchebags within the normal every day users. Everyone just needs to ignore them and let the mod team handle it.
My .02 cents of course.

Thread Closed.

Edited by Moderator.
Where's your Rom at? Are you working on anything?
Ok, here's what happens, the devs here are great, and have the potential to be on par as any other devs that have been on xda for a long time. They are working on lots of stuff, yes, many are broken, that's mostly HTC's Fault for releasing half asked sources, and making things different, but there's another issue... The users here want all this stuff badly! So you can somehow blame the impatience of wanting something new.

The broken ROMs Arnt for people like you, they are dev releases so other devs could work on it, keeping things open source keeps things better

Funny mods

This is retarded. Who the **** cares really? Is Anyone getting paid for this? No. Is this some sort of patent lawsuit? No. Xda sucks because of sensitive twilight-emotional bull**** like this. It just seems like newts panties are in a bunch about the fact his Rom isn't the only one one the block anymore. This Rom has features yours doesn't, I prefer this build. Sorry. Drache, why are you on people's nutsack so hard? I do not get it. Take your lips off his scrotum, pull the pubes out of your teeth, and let the community grow for ****s sake. Every Rom is some level of a kang. And technically, HTC is mostly closed source so porting anything of theirs is the ultimate ****ing kang. So lets shut down every single HTC thread. Lets not forget every MIUI build as well. The only damn thing that's built from source up is CM and that's still a kang of AOSP, thankfully that's legally open.Yeah yeah go ahead and suspend me. I don't give a **** anymore. This **** is so goddamn retarded. When did everyone lose their balls and start crying over sunsets?! Mustafa, continue to build and link your own site somewhere. I'll be there. #****YouXDA
