Hi there,
Is there any channel on the forum that enables member to discuss about the thread posting or moderation?
Or shall members keep it in private with moderators?
It is a pity that personal judgement weighed over rules.
[CLOSED] Question on thread posting
Hi there, I firstly posted two questions in the original thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...-other-directory-than-platform-tools.4536847/ Question 1: would it be possible to adb pull partition (ex. userdata) to any other location than...
forum.xda-developers.com
Please refer to the relevant rules of the forum.
Thanks in advance.

Hello @wenyendev
I'm surprised about your above questions as I think I'd already clearly provided you with the answers in my announcement in your closed thread that you've linked. However, as a non-native English tongue I don't want to rule out that my English skills are too weak to have expressed it well enough. In case of further questions, feel free to contact me or @TNSMANI like I've already suggested in the linked thread by private message (PM).

I can assure you that all moderators know the rules of this private website very well and that all have the capability to assess, which rules are relevant in a specific case.
And I'm grateful that you share your personal assessment "that personal judgement weighed over rules." I like to refine that statement that any moderator's assessment and judgement is always based on and driven by the forum rules. If you've any doubts about this and don't want to contact the respective moderator by PM, you can always complain at any Senior Moderator of your desire (names available here) or at the @Moderator Committee.

Hi Oswald Boelcke,
Thanks for your clarification and following me.
I said "personal judgement" simply because no rules were explicitly cited for the closure of my two threads, for example, whether members shall discuss about thread moderation in the forum or contact moderators in PM.
Thanks for your consideration.

@wenyendev I appriciate your explanation and now understand better.
Different then e.g. the laws and rules in my country and society, the rules of this private website, which were implemented by the owners of the website, are indeed not written just black or white. The rules - at the same time guidance for the website's user - are supposed to be easily readable i.e. in a limited scale with "only" 16 paragraphs and not intended to provide for all contingencies. For this reason, every moderator is happy willing to close related gaps and to explain his decision if asked by a private message. None of us moderators would deny such a request with the argument that XDA is a private website and the XDA staff doesn't owe any user a justification.
And please allow me a private remark as somebody who looks back onto already nearly 67 years of life: It's quite often much more successful to demand something privately instead of going into the public.
Regards

Hi Oswald Boelcke,
Thanks for your reply.
Alas, I could only express my regret that my threads were closed not by the rules of the forum but by personal arbitration.
Regards,
PS: I appreciate your frankness on English language. In the era of television, image often pretends to be more grandiose than message. A true Master may not necessarily master language, for example, Mingyur Rinpoche. : )
Looks like a DM could've clarified this but I see the tongue and cheek and appreciate a smirk haha

@marlencastro Thread closed as your post doesn't contain any not any single useful information. And I've moved the thread out of the development section, for which it didn't qualify at all, to the Q&A section! Your other three posts in this thread got deleted as they didn't add any value to the thread or XDA in general.
Please read this message as a friendly warning not to spam the forum! Any further violation will lead to more severe consequences to your account. I urge you to seriously and completely study the XDA Forum Rules, to which you agreed to adhere when you registered on this private website!

Hello and good afternoon, @Ankitup
Welcome to XDA! I hope you'll always get the support you require.
Edit or change of IMEI is illegal in quite a few of countries. For this reason, I've closed your thread! XDA doesn't allow and doesn't accept discussions about or support for such an edit or change.
XDA Forum Rules (excerpt):
...
9. Don't get us into trouble.
Don't post copyrighted materials or do other things which will obviously lead to legal trouble. If you wouldn't do it on your own homepage, you probably shouldn't do it here either. This does not mean that we agree with everything that the software piracy lobby try to impose on us. It simply means that you cannot break any laws here, since we'll end up dealing with the legal hassle caused by you. Please use common sense: respect the forum, its users and those that write great code.
