[About XDA developers] Clark Joseph Kent:
Although all Nominations are looked upon as case by case. These are the basic requirements/qualifications, but one should not try to acquire a Status with the basic qual's, instead go above and beyond to show your providing back to the XDA Community. To answer your question, yes you need both guides and themes so on....And above all, is to keep to the Forum Rules, meaning do not violate the simple rules. You can have themes/guides so on, two pages long, but if there is issues/noncompliance to the simple Forum Rules well, as outlined in the OP, we have an RC-RT Mission Statement. And part the Spirit of XDA is following the simple Forum Rules. Good to Go.
[About XDA developers] dd98:
Is it normal for a RC application to take three days or more, I'm probably just being impatient though
[About XDA developers] Clark Joseph Kent:
Depending on if the Committee Member has real life events going on, at the moment. Please forward me, what you have sent....thanks.
[About XDA developers] dd98:
ok, I should be more patient and I will forward the message asap
[About XDA developers] AntaresOne:
Hello to all, It's wrote that you need to be a XDA member at least from 12 months but I don't understand a thing: I'm a member from 30 september 2013 and today is 1 september 2014. Should I wait till 30 to complete 12 months on XDA or I can try to apply? Thanks in advance.

I don't think waiting another 30 days will hurt ;)
[About XDA developers] RodKahx:
Just in case it helps anyone...have been a member since 2008 and XDA was my go to for roms and info as needed. Got bit by the theming bug about a year ago.

I never applied to be an RT. When the time was right and my themes got off the ground I was contacted by XDA. My themes alone did not make me an RT. I believe it was the overall attitude that I projected across the forums I took part in also that now makes me an RT.

Food for thought for all those interested.
[About XDA developers] Ticklefish:
This happened to me as well. I never applied to be a RT, I just logged in one day and discovered I'd been made one after being nominated by someone else.

Which genuinely had me smiling all day.

The key lesson here is, if you want to be recognised for your contributions or your theming, spend more time contributing and theming. It's your work and attitude that ultimately controls whether you're accepted or not.
[About XDA developers] :
You've hit the nail on the head with one word. It's our attitudes that are looked for for any title on XDA. You can be the greatest developer or themer on the site, with the most and greatest work out there.... But if you don't have the right attitude, you will not find a title here.

Sorry for chirping in, but some members seem to wonder why they don't have a title, yet they are at the same time flaming a new commer cause he didn't search. ?
[About XDA developers] :
You've also hit the nail on the head. I may not have a title *yet*, but that doesn't keep me from contributing to the community with my general assistance as well as development work.

However, I do hope that someday I will either be nominated for a title or apply for one successfully, as I am sure that I will be able to help even more people if they see that I have a recognized history of assistance.

Sorry for redundancy - just wanted to say this. Don't post for reputation - post that your posts may be useful to others.

[MENTION=4387744]Judge Joseph Dredd[/MENTION], thanks for the sig tip - a good reminder for all of us. I remember I downsized mine approximately a month ago (per your request) - is it a decent size now?
[About XDA developers] :
I'd say it's no bigger than many others. My issue would be the thanks reminder/begging. ?

That's just my opinion tho. ?
[About XDA developers] :
Noted. Thanks for the tip.

However, did you by any chance notice that I said "Hit Thanks if someone helped you", not "HIT THANKS IF I HELPED!"? I'll remove it, if it's better to remove it, but I honestly just want to remind people to thank XDA users in general, not just myself.

What do you have against that? EDIT - Removed the thanks reminder as requested.
[About XDA developers] :
No problem, your choice. Let's end the Off topic tho. ?

Edit: I know what you mean... I would remind members to thank other members too once upon a time. But I stopped worrying about mine or others thanks total. Just be helpful, and they'll come automatically I learned. Again... Only my opinion. Sorry I brought it up. ?

Sorry for off topic guys. ?

So, i read the op and read over the last five pages or so and haven't really found an answer...

I'd like to nominate someone else for rc but i don't if that's an acceptable practice here or not. Can i?
[About XDA developers] :
Yes, you totally can. Just email a member of the RC/RT Committee with your nominee and a few details about them. You can also send your application to any current RC/RT, and they will forward it to the higher-ups. (Thanks, [MENTION=4449607]hell_lock[/MENTION]!)

Question ! Requirement regarding application of RC

Hi :)

I want to ask that how much minimum post count is required for applying for RC.

Fahad
[About XDA developers] :
Post one lists the requirements. Actual post count isn't judged by a certain number, but prerequisite numbers 1 and 6 hint on a certain level of activity on XDA, specifically in the past few months before applying. I'm sure this is left at the discretion of the Committee member who reviews your application.

If you feel you meet all requirements, no harm in trying, right? ?

Be sure to carefully read the application requirements and carefully put together a message for a RC Committee member. ?

Good luck!

I believe we had this discussion December 28th, 2014. And I will ask you, if you have future questions ask me via PM. No reason to clutter this thread more, of useless posting.......

If you have issues with Members, that are violating Forum Rules, please use the report button. This thread is not for such cases....thanks.
[About XDA developers] corphish:
I sent an RC application to Mr. Clown, about 25 hours ago. Although in OP, its mentioned that, to wait 1 week before sending a reminder PM.

But I see Mr. Clown has been online in this time span. Could it be that he has missed out my PM (though its too early, but still)?
[About XDA developers] Quasar:
I understand that you're eager :p, but it takes some time to review and evaluate a member. He might not have had the time at the moment. Wait for a bit. Delay gratification :D
[About XDA developers] Clark Joseph Kent:
So you have read the OP of this thread, but I don't believe you understand it. And you would like the Committee to stop everything and address your nomination now? Yes 25 hours is early to be asking "why".....keep in mind with the amount of Members for this site, can you imagine on how many want to have a status. I would deny you for the simple fact of not following directions and questioning. But you didn't send me the PM, but good luck and stand by please.
[About XDA developers] corphish:
No sir, I did not mean that. I was just assuming that my PM might have got missed out. That's all.

I am extremely sorry from my side anyways. And sorry for being impatient :(

How to create themes for becoming recognized themer ? :p
[About XDA developers] Stryke_the_Orc:
That's not what this thread is for, but you've answered your own question...
[About XDA developers] Clark Joseph Kent:
As stated this is not the thread for your question.

But if you search there are guides on learning such items. There is a thought process in becoming a RT, and a very high set of skills. Instead of asking here, you should be looking and maybe following those that already have the XDA, Recognize Themers statues. Now I suggest doing your own home work and then go from there, also realize that RT's come in different skills sets.

Again we'll not cluttered up this thread....

Go look to see what the RT's accomplishments are on XDA, btw it's a very high caliber. And also read the OP of this thread. Then come see JJD in an year.

Thank you and good luck.

Hello Sir,

I have a doubt. If I apply once and I am rejected, can I apply twice to the same person second time? I mean if I feel that I should apply second time?

Please reply soon. In hope of a quick reply.

Regards,

PoseidonKing.
[About XDA developers] Clark Joseph Kent:
First, not sure if that member will reply. So I'll do it...

Yes, you can apply again to that same Committee Member, matter of fact you should.

To show that you've, grown or accomplished what was needed from your last assessment. And if you go to another Committee Member, well we do talk, and you'll get referred back to to the original Member.

Any more questions, you can ask that Committee Member that did your assessment.

Good to go...

If someone hasn't made any thread at anytime in his history of presence on xda, but preferred to stay in related forums and help others with in the threads, getting a decent response from others due to his helping, can he apply for RC ?

Your precious and kind answer will be very helpful.

Hello mods...

There are already a lot of wonderful nd motivational titles present here in xda....

I think there should also be another title named "Recognised Helper"

Here are the many users who helps other people regularly nd supports them too..since already there are so so many guides available on xda..so..they cant make new.....so its kinda impossible to make us apply for RC...

There should be some provision for regular helpers also...so that they can also motivated more nd keep helping others in future also...it will great confidence booster for us, if there should be something like Recognised helper title for us...

Thank you :)
[About XDA developers] bhuvan9111:
Even i agree with you mate!

From s4 exynos community and nexus 5 community..!

I know i am good at something that is helping ppl in all means and this would be a great thing to have as a title.

Mods here are awesome and will do what is best for us. Hoping the best as always. Thanks.
[About XDA developers] Clark Joseph Kent:
Maybe you both, missed the Mission/Purpose for an RC in the Mission Statement and Definition, as per the OP.

But thank you for your inputs, and yes we have enough Titles, so the "Helper" is already part of the mission. So no need to adjust/add more titles. But instead of adjusting the high standards in place already, why not raise the bar and meet those standards, by making your goals above and beyond.

Thanks for the fast reply sir.

I will for sure try to raise my standards and hopefully will reach the point i always wanted to.

[About XDA developers] :
My apologies! Missed that to be honest. :)

I would strongly suggest you start with a goal of RC at this time, which would need to see quite a heavy increase in activity to be honest. You are welcome to look at the Forum Moderator application here, https://www.xda-developers.com/join-xda-moderation-team/

But I am trying to steer you to a more realistic path at this point I think. You are welcome to apply though, no doubt! :good:

I dream of contributing

Although I'm a newbie, I've been following xda for years for my diy projects. My goal is to become a recognized contributor one day
[About XDA developers] Dirk:
Is it too much to ask for people to be recognised for their contributions. Why should people humiliate themselves for a title? Nobody has ever had to apply to the Queen to receive an MBE, OBE or Knighthood.

If i have to ask for my contributions to be recognised i don't want it.
[About XDA developers] acuicultor:
Don't you know that majority of the time the title is offered by another rd/rc or xda-developers staff member? You just have to apply in those cases and of course anyone felt humiliated by doing that. Btw that is a free application, if you don't like it just don't do it, anyone is forcing you, but please don't speak for everyone.
[About XDA developers] Dirk:
I didn't speak for everyone. I posted as myself and for myself. Did i say i represent a coalition? Do i have multiple personality disorder? In what way would i be speaking for anybody but myself? Should i stop people in the street and ask them if they would like me to represent them on XDA in the matter of meritorious titles and whether they should be freely offered?
[About XDA developers] PG101:
Ok good.. no one is going to ask you if you want to be an RC.. but thanks for letting us know your expectations.

What you do out of XDA is none of our business.

If you have such grievances.. I'm a bit surprised that I've not seen you raising issues before. And not posting such hostile comments.
[About XDA developers] woodman:
Why humiliated? I've seen a bunch of members who applied themselves and they were so happy and proud of becoming an RC by themselves. I don't see that as an humiliation honestly.

Edit: About RD title, the "applying for themselves isn't an humiliation to me" is still valid.

At the time I became an RC, it was thanks to another RC who nominated me for that title. So as said by acuicultor, that could happen as well if one thinks you deserve the title.
[About XDA developers] Clark Joseph Kent:
Good to go! It wasn't my thought or dream, it was the thought process of someone else to submit me for RC Status (a ways back). Not a developer, just offered assistance, as outlined below in the quote.

The key is providing the help/assistance, just because....with no motive, but just in the Spirit of XDA. Something, that is sometimes forgotten, as I was one of the first RC's, we did it just to see others accomplish, in the purpose of developing. And now I'm part of a higher task, to help others, in regards to/for RC's & RT's, again the key is providing no matter, above all. :good:
[About XDA developers] demkantor:
Hey all!

Feel free to delete this message, I just had no other way to send this message as my mailbox is way overfilled. A couple weeks back I had received a message stating my recognized contributor title was to be revoked due to inactivity. Completely understand the reasoning. But upon trying to reply to the moderator I found I could not unless I deleted like 1000 messages or something, as when I held the title I was allowed to go past the standard limit.

I figured no big deal I'll go through and delete what I can but doing it one at a time is just far too much work to do at this time as I would like to keep a lot of these.

Today I got another message that "inactive" would be added to my title but would still be brought to senior member status essentially. This I think is a great way to keep those who hold a title here at the same standard but continue to show appreciation to former title holders. Kudos to this decision.

I would like if I could keep my inbox limit but if not an option I get that as well. I would however suggest adding that information to the letter given to those moving to inactive status as it isn't and had taken me a bit to figure out why I couldn't send messages (from mobile no reason given had to go to a PC to figure it out)

Lastly here is a copy/paste of the message I was trying to send back.

No worries XX XXXXX, although XDA is my first source for Android knowledge still I haven't been helping others out for a long time now, life got busy and I had to drop a lot of my hobbies. It was always good to know I had helped people in the past though. Having said that I appreciate having the opportunity to come back some day, I have always been proud of the title given to me and if I can live up to the title again someday I would certainly love to do that.

Hope XDA continues to grow and flourish!
[About XDA developers] Shreejoy Dash:
Hello, Not sure if I am asking in a right place, but very recently I got the RD tag, I even wish to be a mod @ xda, And I know am going to fill up the form and wait for response but most likely what is the probability of being selected when having ~600 posts and RD tag.

Thanks in advance for any possible answer to my question.
[About XDA developers] Badger50:
Hard to say what the probability is to becoming a FM as it depends on if there is an opening for one. However, you qualify if you have at least 500 posts, and a year of service on XDA, and are in good standings without any infractions. Here is the application site if you'd like to read more. Congratulations on your RD tag as well :good::cool:
