I thought I should make this post here seeing a I get a lot of questions in private messages, and I shall link this in my signature so people will see it.

How to save yourself from PMing me

Check that your question hasn't been answered already. Sometimes, I might have written up a guide on how to do something (ie enabling Hybrid Data2SD or using Kyoratweaks). Check the first page of whatever thread you are asking about that I haven't already answered it.

Check the last two or three pages if you are reporting a bug that someone hasn't already reported a bug. I sometimes get people reporting bugs to me in a private message and it's kind of annoying because then people in the thread don't know you've reported it. Bug reports don't need to be private so feel free to ask it on the thread. You may even learn that way why the bug is there rather than me just saying 'I know'.

If you are a Junior Member and cannot post in the Development section (it does happen), try to use the threads I put in the General section. There is one for G3MOD, and there is one for Kyorarom. I haven't made one for Kyorakernel but it'll be there soon. I just need time. I recommend all junior members go around and answer questions though in the general section (sensibly though, don't answer 'I don't know') and get your post count up enough so you can post in the main threads.

If you are asking about how my phone is set up, check in my signature. It's written pretty clearly there. If you need more details, I write it in My full configuration. If there is something not answered there, then let me know and I'll update it.

Remember that I am not always available at my computer to answer PMs. While I always have my phone on me, and my phone is always syncing to Google and I get PMs instantly, I don't always have access to my computer. I could be working or in a class, or perhaps just busy working on personal projects (which I have a lot of: my computer mods, ClannadAAS, cleaning the house), or maybe I just want a break from the XDA for a bit to spend with family, friends or my girlfriend. Bear this in mind when PMing me that I may not get back to you for sometimes 24 hours. Usually I'm pretty good and get back within a few hours but sometimes I just can't. You may get a much quicker and more detailed response asking it in the many threads I follow closely (Kyorarom, Kyorakernel, G3MOD Kernel, Kyrillos' ROM, CM7, OpenFIMG are some of the threads I am subscribed to).

Please don't send me multiple PMs. I get a lot of them. Sometimes I can get 10 a day, sometimes more and it takes a while to go through all of them. If you are keeping me updated on something then just get it as far as you can on your own and then send a big update all at once. It saves me going through lots of messages that way. Also even if you don't think the PM sent right, it probably has. Don't keep clicking refresh and send it again because then I get a million emails saying I have more PMs.

If people pay attention to this, I think we can all enjoy the XDA more. I'm not trying to be a **** about it, I'm just trying to make sure you guys get good services from me too.
