RandomRapids! - Off-topic

Hello, my name is slawson [zfxp on IRC]
I don't have any programming skills nor do i desire to
So my way in giving back to the community is by a game im calling RandomRapids, RandomRapids is a game in which i make a post in rom dev's thread RANDOMLY!
So you're wondering why i'm posting in their threads?
Well in each post contains the rules as listed below, for one week a rapidshare account will be loaded with 100Rapids which = 35 GB/s of premium download.
The rapids will be reloaded every friday night at midnight EST, which makes the rapid point available by 5 A.M. EST.
apon refilling of rapids, the password will be changed for the next post.
RULES!
1. Do not change the password on the account, i will never do this again if someone changes the password, don't be the one to ruin this for everyone.
2. PLEASE KEEP THE LIMIT TO 1 DOWNLOAD PER PERSON! it's only fair, you're not the one's purchasing the rapids.
3. For any help you may need irc.totalirc.net #rapid
4. Please support the devs in the thread in which this is posted by donating to them.
5. I will take donations, if you donate you will be recognized in this thread.
6. Friday's are free-for-all download what you want!
If you make a donation the thread in which the randomrapids post was made will recieve 20% of that donation recieved.
Let's help keep this alive!

Reserved for donators!

so its a pyramid game

Lol not at all!

woow thats awesome i think i understand the rules bit confused here so we get the account for a week? if we....... find your post ? , if that's what it is ima be hunting for a looong time to get this so many things i can download but cant because of the 100kb/s i get with rapidshare free

pretty much just be reasonable
Also here's a hint there's a post up in the Eris android development forum =p
'happy hunting

Someone has already ruined it.
You kids just can't leave well enough alone.
My faith in humanity has dwindled down to zero
Congradulations!
New edit**
I have reset the password back on the post below, DO NOT CHANGE IT AGAIN, LAST CHANCE!
And please note that donations aren't required, it's just to support it, so don't post saying "Scam"

Get 10 posts. Gives you access to being able to post in the development/phone specific sub forums. It also gives you access to have signatures, post in the marketplace (where you sell phone and phone related things), post outside links, etc. Also, you may want to avoid this specific sub forum or just mainly DanWilson. He's dangerous and may get you banned/hack you. Also, people like it when you use the search feature at the top of the page instead of just posting in a sub forum. I'm not really against or for this. But many people get (VERY) angry. Sheesh. Have fun, and enjoy.
Yes I'm feeling helpful today OT.
How many post u need to allow new users to add links because i want to post a thread about fixing my phone and to explain carefully i need to add links? Im just asking.
10 posts should get you the ability for external links if i am correct.
Thank u this post will just get me to 11 post so it would be enough thnx

Well, you'd wanna use some lube if it is your first time, because going bareback might hurt a little for both parties.
You'd also wanna ease it in a little before going full force.
I'd give you more advice but I see PDL here and he's probably more experienced, what with his marriage to Dan and all that.
Don't use this site. You're gonna brick your nice new phone, and by the time you get it to work again, a newer, better phone will have come out. Forget this site, go look at porn insread.

Yes this needs to be taken down if it isnt for Droid X, if it is, you should have a direct download link. Not a link to another site for downloads.
I think that's in the rules of the forums.

a folder on a server isnt another site. you wanna handle 38 threads for me? update each one with a direct link every night?

Ummm maybe because rootz doesn't have guidelines for posting... as for what you and the other guy said: I may have messed up the rule, but if you plan to bring something out, wait till it's actually out before you write a post saying " here it is" in the main post then under it saying "coming soon" that's misleading and hence why you get angry messages... Its like saying there is a ps3 here for free! Then saying well maybe tonight it'll be free. Of course you'll get backlash that's just common sense. Might I suggest that if you want to do this in the future put "coming soon" in the post title.
Now on to your direct download question. You should know by now that there are direct downloading (hosting sites) that allow you to have a list of several different files under 1 direct downloading page. IE 1 link then click on the file you want then instant download. No need for ftps or other miscellaneous things. And now for the several posts you have: that's what a developed does if they want to get stuff out to the masses. I've done much MUCH more than 27 threads in separate forums for much more popular things than android. Like for instance back in the old days when you had to El patches that were 150mb for counter-strike 7.5 beta.... aaahhh good old days.....

I was not being ride for christ sake! I simply asked if I was missing something. A second post saying coming implies something else is coming, not the rom that u said was here. If u doing like people asking where a rom that u said was here is, then don't post that its here. That seems pretty simple.

I know its free work, I'm not complaining about the work (mostly because there is no work done yet, and I haven't tried it out), All I'm saying is that there are rules and I thought that one of them was no 3rd party dl link; meaning no one can say "here's the download" then take someone to a 3rd party site so that you have to click on additional links for the download. That's both misleading & under-minded.
Same thing I was complaining about with his "here is a new rom" then right under it there was an additional post stating "well.... coming soonish...." If you don't mislead people you won't get 1/2 as many angry posters as there normally are when this kind of crap happens. Read rules & don't mislead people, that's all Im saying.

Linking to downloads that REQUIRE REGISTRATION is against the rules. Direct downloads (or nearly direct, in this case) are not.
XDA doesn't host large files like roms. How would any dev post anything without an external site?? How, exactly, do you classify MediaFire, et al.?
If you have a question about said rules or think someone is breaking them, how about PMing someone who knows them (read: moderator) before pissing off a major developer.
r2, I'll implore you to stick around. Please, PM me if you need anything. I also mod in TB if you run into this kind of junk over there.

thank you, but its been building for a while. there were 5 pages on rootz before i got a build up, 5 pages of discussion and friendly FAQ. even after the builds got messed up, not a single person got rude.
it hasnt just been here, though the guys here are what finally pushed me over the line. ive been dealing with this quite a lot here, and have been slowing down my post rate for a while. Maybe if xda can clean it act up ill be back, but i dont see it happening in the forseeable future.
all my work is still available, i just wont be posting it here.

Thanks for the clearification; but I wasn't referring to "3rd party websites" as sites like megaupload, megashare, etc, etc. I should of phrased it differently, what I should have used was "personal websites" because most of them usually require some kind of login. In this case no; so thanks again for clarifying.
As for pissing off the dev, that's a 2 edged sword, as I get why other people besides me are angry. It really is misleading to have a post in a section dedicated to ROM development/release and tell everyone "here it is" then post again saying coming soon. I don't really mind if it is coming soon, but it would have been nice to have him put something like "Coming soon" in the post title. Droid X doesn't have much development on XDA at all anymore. And since this is the second of 2 in the last month (and 1 rom before that in the last like 5) people are bound to freak out! Then to see something like what happened here, that will quickly turn into something like "wtf is this?"
We both had problems and now both problems are out in the open. We can both learn from it.

...most dumb post I've ever seen in the last months.
I really trying to raise the user experience of users by spending a lot of time and effort in those mods....and I'm doing a lot of mods as you can see in my signature.
Well you can believe it or not, I dont just spent hours on those mods, more like days and weeks. On my leedroid tweaks project even months.
..and I'm doing this for fun and SHARE it with YOU for FREE!
So what the problem when I just put one rule up for DEVS and THEMERS to wait a t least on week before including it?
On that way I can ensure some activity in my threads and not to lose all users by day one, because all are kanging me on day two?
...YOu're really a poor guy - You are talking about whats with xda now?
Look at yourself, too much ignorant7dumb users here just leechicng stuff without beeing able to eben thank a dev for therer time spending in their projects.
Could write even more...you really made my day..worse. Thx.

Dumb? Asking people to wait a week to get permission to use your work and you call me dumb? Yea request they ask your permission and give you credit for your hard work but wait a week! Man people like you is what's wrong with xda and no dumb leechers in here. The guy posted and stated it wasn't his work and direct linked to your thread. No problem with that at all. All he did wrong was provid file on download. He was tryna to help not leech. There is a major difference

you may want to retract that statement about not wanting users mate as they are who made you who you are on here. if they all hated your **** or didnt use it you would be nothing on here and wouldnt still be dev_ing. oh and i never said you had an attitude but dont be judging me dude. i will freely express my opinion always

You are a very helpfull person... Thats why I did not expect you to write your opinion like the way you do.

Contest Voting

I have entered my story of how I got engaged in a contest. The top 20 go to the next round. I figure what better way to get the word out than to share it with my xda friends? So, check out the following link and vote for our story. You can vote once per day from now until May 8th. Thanks in advance for your support!
JIC - Jewelry Information Center - Ultimate Proposal Contest
Just priming the off topic pump for those late night forum junkies! Happy voting!
Seeing as how you have been a member since 2008 and you only have 44 posts I would feel "used" if I voted for you. Good luck anyway.

Bummer. I don't necessarily find the need to post all the time and spam the development forums. There have been rare times that I can actually provide valuable input and when those times do occur, I post. Also, since I am not a very involved developer, I am not creating anything new. I am using the forums for the great information that is out there to tweak the past 4 or 5 phones I have had. That being said, I haven't run into many problems when doing the hacking so I, again, haven't had the need to post that something didn't work for me. It normally works just fine since I read the directions and follow it closely.
Regardless, no hard feelings in the slightest. Thanks anyway.

No apologies necessary. I have pretty thick skin. Thanks for your support.
If anyone is surfing the web today, feel free to show your support by voting. Thanks in advance!
Any voters out there?
Just tried to vote. Sorry man, I don't vote in things that make me sign in to do it. Even though it's just fb, I don't want to inadvertently sign up for things I don't want. I don't want the jewelry company spamming my fb. Otherwise I would.

Thanks for trying. I normally have the same sentiments. My plan is just to remove the app when the contest is done voting. Also, you could sign up for a contest account by providing your email. So far they haven't sent any junk email. I have a junk email address though for specifically places that I think might spam me.
Anyway, thanks for the try and comments. Her hand just had to get a little stronger and she is dealing with the strain.
We are moving on up! Keep up the voting to those who want to. I know it is a pain but your support is appreciated.
Just voted. Good luck

[R.I.P.] - Null_14 -fOmey

:crying::crying::crying:
Just wanted to do a tribute to fOmey, and all the good he has done here.
I know many are pissed about his decision to leave, but I totally understand why he left, and don't blame him one bit. (I know how it is from other projects I have worked on in the past). It takes alot out of you.
I know my gear would never be what it is today with out fOmey.
You have forever changed my Gear.
Thanks for all you have done of us all here. Our lives have been forever changed.
Good luck in the future. We enjoyed every min of your time with us.
Respect to you my friend!
:good:
(To all you haters this thread is not for you GO AWAY)
Only post here is you have nice things to say!
Very much love given
Sent from my SM-N900T
Hopefully he goes private! I would be happy to pay for support and updates! Thanks for your hard work f0mey!
Emitted from my Note 3 and its sidekick Gear.
I will forever be grateful. If not for fOmey I would have $300 of regret adorning my wrist.
I too hope he goes private I will support for updates :fingers-crossed:.. @fOmey is still the man!!!!:good:
Good luck to you and thank you for all you have done.
Fomey you are the best wish I would have donated I agree only people who can read should use custom roms I found it annoying to read the same questions over and over again. I too hope you go private or make a comeback.

I was about to post this to the other thread, but that just closed so I'll say it here instead:
fOmey,
No matter what went down and no matter where your head is at at the moment, all I'll say is this: your work is awesome.
The bottom line is...what you have done for the gear...no one has done for the gear...and its not even close by a long shot. Which yeah, is really saying something because despite the occasional moron or 3, there are obviously some pretty damned amazing people here contributing to this community.
In my mind if this turns into nothing more than a donation thread for the remaining reslistically useful life span of the gear, be it 6 months or 66 months, then f0mey, you've earned it. Well anyway, here's mine:
7DM94842LK0795126
Made back on November 11th, it's my first donation and definitely will not be my last.
One more time for emphasis - Thanks for all you've done!

I remember reading not too long ago that you were in between jobs, so let me suggest that one of the first things you do at that site is to make it easy to donate to you in support of your work.
I always thought it was pretty cool that this guy basically made a career of being unemployed:
http://www.oddtodd.com/
(Well at least he started out that way)
Whether its through donations or something else or both, that would be great if in the end somehow you were able to make a decent living doing what you appear to really enjoy doing..that is, cranking out terrific roms for the gear.

F0mey stop having a tantrum, this site is the place to carry on with your Rom not a private site of your own, at least here there is no chance of dodgy software and no not referring to yours however its better to keep all roms on XDA because unscrupulous software writers could do so much damage with spyware and stealing passwords, if a writer did this here they are shutdown right away, on a private site they just keep pumping out dangerous software.
Not everyone is an expert and even myself when I first installed the Rom struggled with the instructions and setout, it can be something as simple as a misdirected direction in flashing for me now I have flashed 100s of times if not 1000s from my S1, S2, S3, S4 you need to take a leaf out of the other designers book on here and cut the sarcasm, if you dont want to respond let someone else do it for you, this site is about sharing ideas and developing software, and of course a bit of coin in the pocket for the developers who are any good.
Good luck with the future ps I have just come back from 3 weeks in Brisbane and intend to go back to WA next year
Sadly it has happened before, with capable devs leaving xda and setting up their own websites.
It just takes a couple of really nasty people to upset the peace of mind of a dev. In Pauly's case an extremely talented mind. They in no way represent the majority of people on here.
I have now bookmarked his new site and will continue to follow him. If I was Samsung I would hire him immediately (take notice Samsung).
For those who caused this upset, and unrepentantly insist that they were right - shame on you, you have spoilt things for many xda followers.
Thanks Pauly
Cheers
Baz

Tantrum ? Psh, Im not expecting everyone to be experts.. Although I do expect them to read, especially if I spoon feed the information to them on the original post.
Its easy to stand on the side lines and say "whats the big deal, who cares if people ask for help".. you try reading through all those pages every morning just because someone is to lazy to read the original post of a thread. 60% of the pages in that thread were about bull**** "bugs" which were reported over & over & over again.. Eg. "bluetooth tethering doesnt work".
Whats the point of a development thread if there is no development talk going on ? You dont need to read it, the next guy doesnt either.. although its my job to, I have to verify theirs no bugs on the rom, I have to keep track of the thread.
I refuse to do it anymore, if people cant follow some simple requests I made.. why should I care ? I'm sorry others have to suffer, There are some great supporters & users out there.
It is what it is I will continue to develop, I will continue to support. At least this way I can manage the content.
