[About XDA developers] a.cid:
While people think it would help, it has no "real" effect...

I for one, didn't know any mods or rc's (except my device's fsm at those times, colossus and after him, TeeJay3800)

My current interaction level with them is the "effect" of me being an RC, rather than the "cause" of it...

"By the power vested in me, I now pronounce you, Man and Knife"
[About XDA developers] wildstang83:
This may be true, however in a PM conversation with MikeChannon, he did recommend it.
[About XDA developers] mark manning:
I would have to agree with a.cid. while we do have a nomination process, I personally and I hope other RCs' are the same way, won't nominate someone because they are a "friend". The majority of the mods I know have came after me being an RC. The one I knew before (TeeJay3800) I knew before he was a mod when we came up together in the old mytouch 4g forum.

[About XDA developers] KidCarter93:
I can see why getting to know mods can be beneficial, beforehand. It's not about favorability but more how you talk to them and how you respond etc. From building this repore, the higher-ups you've spoken to will know that you could be a great asset.

Before I became an RC the only mods I'd spoke to outside of threads were Teejay3800 and colossus and the only 2 RCs I'd spoken to via PM were a.cid and mf2112. Since then, I've spoken to a lot more simply because I've had those chances to. It's being an RC that's opened those opportunities for me, as much as it has.
[About XDA developers] wildstang83:
Exactly what I was trying to say.

Building this repore with the higher ups will also show that you are not scared of them, but also respect them just like any other person on the site.

I know if I was a moderator or one day when I am a moderator on XDA, I hope people aren't afraid to talk to me. And honestly, if I was an S/mod or admin, and seen an application come through from someone who wasn't afraid to talk to me I might have to accept their application. Know why? This shows fearlessness which happens to be a great quality of any leader.

I'm just rambling now, but anyway, thats just how I personally feel.
[About XDA developers] The-Captain:
When I first talk to someone they normally seem scared, but they get to know you and realize you are just like them. I was never a RC, but my tips to you guys are to be helpful, not just as far as creating guides, etc. But also just be willing to help. If you don't enjoy helping people it's not gonna be as easy and it's gonna be hard. I'm honored to be a mod because I love the community and enjoy both learning and helping others.
[About XDA developers] wildstang83:
Exactly how I feel, except the mod part, not there yet. Workin' on it :)
[About XDA developers] Fallen Spartan:
Building relations, proving to us you are honest, approachable and easy to work with imho is a qualities all mods should have. If other users cannot work with you, talk to you, trust you or approach you, then you'll never be a mod

[About XDA developers] Fallen Spartan:
Unfortunately this can happen, not on purpose mind you. Just we are busy and sometimes things can be missed or forgotten about. If you send it to one mod and do not hear back after a few days, contact them again. If still no response, contact another mod. Either way, they should get to your application in due time

My inbox is always open, just always rather full ;)

You can send the application with an expired infringement?

Good luck to you. Hopefully you'll get it first time around.

Since I'm posting, I have a quick question myself. I applied a little while back but got denied. Is it time and am I able to reapply now?
[About XDA developers] GaboWinter:
Depends... Don't you received any date to re-apply on the message when your application was denied? If don't, you need wait at least three months as minimum (AFAIK), but the best will be that PG confirm this.

If you feel that you meet the criterias for a successful RC application and if you have worked on the parts that lead to un-approval last time, then yes.

Good luck !

You received a PM with the reason why your application for RC was not approved? If not, kindly ask PG101 in PM for a short advise.

So the RC change happens really fast hehe

Actually I'm wondering about the different approaches here. PG? ;)

[About XDA developers] nikufellow:
This question is not for me am a newbie and don't plan on applying anytime soon - but i think friend of mine in the forums is eligible and meets all the requirements but he is reluctant as his thanks metre is some what low - i just wanted to know whether thanks count does matter - is there something like - you need minimum 1000 thanks to get approved ?
[About XDA developers] roofrider:
Lol, he can have 0 thanks. Does not matter.
[About XDA developers] KidCarter93:
No, there's no minimum. As you'll see by looking at different RCs, some have low thanks count and some have a high thanks count. The quality of the work and the person is much more important in being approved.

EDIT - roofrider beat me for once :eek::eek::eek:
[About XDA developers] nikufellow:
Okay thanks in fact he has close to 500 thanks but he argues that most other RC's have 1000 or above so :rolleyes:

Is it possible to nominate members?
[About XDA developers] KidCarter93:
Yes it is.

If you want to nominate someone, be sure to let the person know first (in case they don't want to be given a title).

Then once they say yes, PM any senior moderator saying you'd like to nominate someone and give links to threads or posts where the user has made which have been helpful and what we would expect a RC or RT to provide.
[About XDA developers] roofrider:
Why? Because that person too lazy to do it himself? :silly:

I can understand RCs nominating, but fellow members!
[About XDA developers] KidCarter93:
Mainly because a lot of people don't know that it's possible to be nominated as a RC or even know they can apply.
[About XDA developers] Somcom3X:
Well, he has dedicated endless hours to his work.
[About XDA developers] wildstang83:
This is a good thing for sure, however, he will have also needed to be dedicated to posting outside of his own threads, like helping with questions and answers and contributing in other useful ways. "Dedicating endless hours to his own work" is simply not enough.

But I am sure he has been helpful around the forums right? You make him sound awesome at least :)

Nomination question

Hell-o all,

Had a question about my attempt at a nomination for an XDA contributor.

PM'd a nomination for a contributor into a senior mod 5-6 days ago.

I realize all moderator PM's are probably always in an overflow condition with so many XDA users on-board.

I was wondering if it's appropriate to expect a confirmation reply to a nomination?

Wasn't sure if it would be good to keep pushing or if it were best to wait.

Like to see this guy get some recognition for his very evident dedication.

TIA for any advice.

[About XDA developers] Somcom3X:

When he gets an infraction/get banned. Than his title will be removed, for example your rc, than you spaaam and ANNOY everyone & your an senior member

Lol! What if a RT is not mantaining a peaceful environment here and is copying and modding others work then is it possible for the title to get removed?

I am sure his title will also be removed in that case.

RC and RT program is very similar IMO.
