[G1 Android Development] Joushou:
1: A forum is by nature a place of free discussion, with a rule-set. This is a discussion wether or not doing what Cyanogen was explicitly told NOT to do, is the right action. That is therefore a discussion about the very ROM he released, and completely on the topic of the thread.

2: A poll is a way to easily analyze what the average audience means about something... An example would be "What do you like the most? [Pizza] [Spaghetti]". A discussion is not meant to get the "average opinion", but for everyone to tell exactly what they want to tell about the topic. For example, if i didn't like pizza, nor spaghetti, i would not be able to show that in the former example, but i would in a discussion. A discussion gives people a "longer leash". Also, you can't tell why you have your opinion in a poll, nor reply to that opinion. Polls on forums tend to be combined with a discussion, but a poll itself gives no extra freedom.

3: You don't get attention when you mark your whole text as a color, as it's the color DIFFERENCE that makes it stand out. The same thing is the case with upper/lower-case characters. The human body is built around sensing relative differences, and that's the same with the eye. It's only the difference that bring the unconscious attention you were looking for.

The only thing you accomplished, was making it look like both your shift-keys and your caps-lock keys were broken (And/or you being the usual all-caps moron), and making the text harder to read in low-light conditions.

Next time, the human eye is way more sensitive to light with a wave-length of 555nm, which is very strong green. At least it will always be readable, but still ****ing annoying.

4: I do take my own advice, as i always do. I have something to add, by educating you in common internet-etiquette. And, by telling you that you accomplished absolutely nothing, by doing writing the exact same as all the others in the thread, except you explicitly targeted me. I respect other peoples opinions, but i can't take when people freak out at others for doing so, which i attempted to say in the other posts, which you obviously wasn't competent enough to understand.

And, i hardly doubt that my 4-5 posts here ruined the thread... There's 13 pages now, and my posts alone would still stay on the first page. All the others are "Thank you!" posts, and those ****ing "Stop being h4t3rz!!!" posts.

Seriously, write something that is worth reading, and when you say something to a person, expect a reply. All of my posts have been replies, trying to explain a different point of view. You, together with all the other people using the word "haters", have ruined this thread, by complaining about others opinions, instead of just writing their own.

So, you must all be proud of yourselves, huh?

But really, i don't like virtually yelling at people, and i don't suppose you like me virtually yelling at you.

Lets end this stupid discussion, and get back to the topic: David's ROM.

I have already given my opinion: I think it's a bad idea, because of the C&D letter we all know of. If a person know how to flash an update.zip, the same person can flash 2 of them, sequentially. So i don't really get the point of this ROM.

I believe most people think it's a good idea, since it helps avoid that one extra flashing. I just don't understand how those 2 extra presses makes things harder. I would understand if you had to copy files off your own ROM, and move things back and forth, but it's exactly how you flash this, times 2.

I would be glad if someone could enlighten me on why this is so much easier? (All~G1: Can you see what i mean with the font-difference? This is not to criticize your post, but just to tell you a better way to get attention... Only making small parts different makes it stand out a lot. :) )

Oh, and to all of those writing "thank you", i'm very sure the author appreciates it, but unfortunately, it makes the discussions enormous... It's an odd thing to ask, but could you withstand the urge to credit that much in the ROM threads? It would leave room for questions, and discussions (Not like this one), and it would make it easier for people to read their way to previously answered questions, instead of having to get them answered several times in 100-pages long threads... Please?
