[About XDA developers] TheMystic:
Sad to see this coming from a staff member, even if it is meant to be a joke.

Why don't you limit your members to just developers then? Why not make the 'bias' part of your rules too?

If you have rules that don't explicitly say so, then it is best to stick with what is written. Treating everyone fairly and in accordance to what the rules state isn't asking for too much.

PS: I don't know what lead to that member complaining. But to brush this aside in this manner or make it a joke shows bad mentality and approach.
[About XDA developers] TheMystic:
Completely unnecessary.
[About XDA developers] TheMystic:
That's true.

Example: A popular political figure made a statement with a far reaching audience and consequence. LAW ENFORCEMENT did NOTHING.

An ordinary citizen made the same statement: Despite it being inconsequential, the person was arrested and several cases were slapped on him. Now he and his family have to run around for a long time.

Can be difficult at times.
[About XDA developers] blackhawk:
I think there's an exemption clause for dogs...

Some rules are not binding. Hierarchy exists within the member ranks of all forums to a greater or lesser extent. This provides site cohesion, structure and a form of leadership.

Rank has it's privileges and is achieved over time with effort. It's not an arbitrary circumstance.

This site gives titles that confers ranking, these titles are earned as they should be.

If you start a flame war sometimes you win, sometimes you get confused🤣

If you want to avoid a shouting match, burning villages etc with a OP sometimes it's better to take it to PMs to iron out differences or just ignore them. Personally I use whatever comes in handy... and works.

[About XDA developers] karandpr:
We don't need to do any of that. This community is running fine for almost 2 decades.

We are not a company where "members" request services from developers managed by "forum staff".

We are a community of smartphone enthusiasts.

We have developers who develop software for smartphones we love and share it in their own free time.

We have members who support each developer and other members.

We have members who appreciate the work & effort put in by devs & members silently.

If someone is trolling, insulting someone or causing the thread to derail, mods will step in.

Thats how internet communities work. That's how XDA works.

The rules are a written, legally binding use agreement between the user and the xda entity. As such, it can't be modified after the agreement of both parties. It would be admitted into evidence for a discrimination and harassment lawsuit against named moderators and xda. What wouldyour defense be? "I pick and choose who I discriminate against because that is the way we do it for two decades!" You all would lose that suit.

[About XDA developers] TheMystic:
The issue here is of treating everyone with fairness and applying rules evenly, irrespective of the 'rank' held by a member. As a member climbs up the rank, it doesn't (shouldn't) exempt him from the rules that govern the forum. There are other ways to appreciate the contributions made, and 'rank' is just one of them.

That's true. This is a community for smartphone enthusiasts, and developers are one part of it. They may be the core group on which the forum is built, but they too are accountable for their conduct and must adhere to rules that are designed to keep the community a healthy place for interaction.

Mods must take action, but without prejudice, bias or obligations. If they can't be independent, neutral and objective, they should excuse themselves from that role.

Again, I have no knowledge of what @mordantly is complaining about. I'm only in favour of treating everyone with fairness, regardless of how old the members are and what contributions they have made to the forum. I don't see why anyone would disagree with this.

Peace!
[About XDA developers] Neo:
Alright... I've seen enough.

To all: If you have an issue with a moderator, report it to their team leader. If the moderator that you have an issue with is a senior moderator, report it to the moderator committee account. If you want a specific member from the committee to address your concern, then pick any one of them and send them a message. We have removed mods from the forum before; they are not above reproach, and that includes any member of staff on this site. A list of contacts was recently provided in this thread to address these concerns.

This conversation has degraded down to mere prattle and has gone far enough. This thread was never meant to be a soundboard for complaining about having your hand slapped when the other guy didn't get one too. Utilize the appropriate channels for that type of discussion please, thank you.
[About XDA developers] mordantly:
What is the appropriate channel when the leader of the moderation committee is involved?
[About XDA developers] Lunalunea:
Thank you for this thread.

It just posted on help in developer and right after that, I was going to search informations that could help me (Already do that before but found nothing very helpful) and just typed some keywords (oukitel wp15 magisk root bootloop, exactly matching some of the words of my ancien post ) on google and found what ?

How ???

This is just like an interface website who copy and post the top of the topic and a button "Read the full story" sending right to my post on the xda forum.

I'm just asking about authors right not only for me but also for the website ? does it authorized this website to collect a snip of any forum post ? how ? does it is included on the rules or terms ? (I think no, it's included or mentioned nowhere)

So.... Yes... ?

Thank you.

edit #1: Forgot to said that yes I admit, the thread is published on the wrong section and I wanted to delete it but after thinking, this post would got an invalid link or be removed from the website (opera...) so no more proof

(Think before acting not like me)
[About XDA developers] woodman:
The channel would be any other member of the moderator committee, any other senior moderator or an admin.
[About XDA developers] Timmmmaaahh!:
That is indeed odd but I'm quite sure XDA can't do much about other websites indexing our forum. There is an email address on the page you've linked to, I recommend contacting them about it. I also wouldn't worry about it too much as such websites usually contain so much of these things that barely anyone will land on "your" page. If you need maintenance on your post/thread, just report it and detail what needs to be done.
[About XDA developers] Lunalunea:
Thanks for your reply,

I'm not with you about the fact that XDA cannot do anything about that. Like a policy to deny any kind of copy, partial or integral, or more technically a domain redirect check (Like where the link come from) for statistics and seeing what websites are using the most direct xda links ect... But if they want ? Or IDK how the administrative/technical part of XDA is.

IDK I'm just reporting that.

I'm not sure to understand ? from who ? XDA or the mentioned website ?

If from XDA I have all control in it (in what is basically allowed for post from members from themselves), I can edit it, delete it ect...

From the mentioned website ? IDK

Thank you !

(Sorry if I badly express myself, I'm not a native English speaking person)
[About XDA developers] Timmmmaaahh!:
Well in any case it's a good thing to make us aware, perhaps administration will look into this. It's been a while since I've studied copyright law and I'm not even sure how much it's similar in the US but I do recall that it's allowed to publish a part of a text somewhere, certainly if there's a link to the source. I could be wrong, I'm no legal expert.

Nothing to apologise about :)

I meant on XDA, we have no control over external websites. If you'd need us to lock the thread or so, we're always here for you. Of course you can also edit the content yourself.

Like my experience with a said tool but not direct answer?
[About XDA developers] Timmmmaaahh!:
XDA is about collaborating, any information related to the question can be of great value so please do! It has to be on topic, of course. If someone asks about a recovery image for a Xiaomi 12 device and you tell them about your hike in the Alps last weekend it will undoubtedly be a great story but not very helpful to the person asking the question. You can also just have the same problem and add more context by sharing how it manifests on your end. More people talking about the problem = more people looking for the answer.

Taken from another thread.

Are thumbnails turned off using permissions for some? If so, I think it should be the other way around. ie default to thumbnails, and if anything a full image should be controlled by permissions.[/USER][/QUOTE]
[About XDA developers] Oswald Boelcke:
Not that I know that thumbnails would be turned of to somebody. And I've never recognised that anything is defaulted; neither full imgae nor thumbnail. Maybe I do something wrong but if I want an attached image to appear in my post I've to manually and expressively select either full image or thumbnail. However, allow me this restraint: I'm only talking browser as I've never used the app; don't know how it's there.
[About XDA developers] DiamondJohn:
I have only used the browser also. I checked, and in the browser, the top option is Thumbnail. So I can only guess that maybe new users just dont understand that clicking on a thumbnail, gives any reader the full image. As I am sure I am not the only one, they are missing out on possible assistance, as I know I will scroll right past the full post with over-sized images, as its just too much to take in. Spoiler content hidden.

Im not sure if a final confirmation box on insert full image (especially if it could be based on size, in a perfect world) to suggest a thumbnail, letting them know the full image is provided on a simple click.
[About XDA developers] DiamondJohn:
I didnt want to "edit"/ add to the above post, to avoid the "thanks" appearing to agreee with the following additional statement/question, after the fact.

Its getting so bad these days with the extended screen shots, I would propose that ONLY thumbnails should be allowed?

PS: I am not purposefully not answering these posts out of spite or to "teach them a lesson", its just the extra effort required to understand and decipher their poorly formatted question, could be spent on multiple others instead of just 1. Its really bad when they include a looooong screenshot and the actual question is at the bottom, inline with the bottom of the image; and the pertinent part of the image is at the top of the image., or maybe it isnt, you know i didnt read it😜

@nerzwerk

Thanks for replying to my post, and I'm fully aware that you didn't intend to discredit anybody. Allow me to continue here because I don't want to hijack the ROM thread with this not ROM or development related staff.

As you've also mentioned @Badger50 please allow me to explain that I'd just pinged him to make him aware of my post for an internal coordination process.

From your screenshot I assume you're using the app, with which I've no experiences at all. Never used it and most likely never will. I wasn't aware that only the first part of a notification/alert text is displayed in the app. Just for me to further learn: Is this only the case in portrait mode or also in landscape?

I'm only visiting XDA via Browser on my PC where I can read the complete text of a notification/alert:

Spoiler content hidden.

Allow me to mention a probably important difference between an alert/notification about a reaction to one of your posts, a quotation of your post or where you're mentioned and the notification that your report was resolved or rejected:

For the first ones, there're indeed hyperlinked to the respective event/post i.e. if you click on them you're taken to there. But the latter ones have no hyperlinks for obvious reasons as you don't have access to our reporting system i.e. you need to read the full notification and have to contact the acting moderator (e.g. by PM) in case of any question. For this reason, moderators usually close a report with providing their name in the notification - unless unintentionally omitted.

TL;DR: Negative. It was not your fault, it's system design.
[About XDA developers] nerzwerk:
Yeah i

Yeah I saw I mentioned the false one and edited my post. So here again, sorry @orb_selektor it wasn't my intention to discredit you.

Yeah i am using the App. In Landscape Mode you can see a little bit more, but not enough. So I guess for app users there should be changed something.
