[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] MagnusRagnarok:
I am not obsessed with anything. I am perfectly sane and i never thought i was playing a video game,youre actually the only one thats ever said that, so thats a new one:D; i would really love to design video game software, but with my level of knowledge, that would be impossible.. If i liked other themes i wouldnt theme myself. why would i take pointers from other themers when:

1.i have no desire to use anyone elses themes, thats why i share mine. i would also look like a moron and a hypocrite if i did not use my own themes/mods. Who's going to use your work if YOU yourself do not?

2.i learned how to do this SO i could customize MY own roms, not to use others

3.I AM NOT A THEMER AND I AM NOT TRYING TO BE ONE....

If you were me you would understand how ridiculous this sounds and makes absolutely NO sense whatsoever. here is where your inexperience is showing and your opinion starts to mean less and less to me and any dev that reads your comments. look @ it this way...

I in no way mean you disrespect, just pointing out the things that you are obviously missing about me and my motives here.

Now, about me flaming others; i would like you to search the entire site and find a thread that i commented in, including my own, where i flamed someone without being provoked by them first; and ill never post on xda again. ill even copy every single post for you to look thru to make it easier.thats it, plain and simple.

About me being pompous/cocky is often confused with "informed", which i am not sorry for being and i have confidence in my ability because i taught myself to do what everyone here posting negatively about cant even do, or better themselves. and someone that could, would not be here insulting me, theyre prolly working on something, just like i am about 65% of the time.

This post explains your level of inexperience posting,choosing your battles,when not to post, doing research so you can realize who you are insulting,and just a general lack of knowledge for what i do; this is rel3vant to post count. I havent seen too many pps with 2000 posts that would not understand what i am talking about or be able to relate to it rather than insult me. If you want to see all of my contributions here/time spent putting them together, and sites where my work has been collected by others w/o my knowledge just google my name. i didnt see anything when i google your name, no offense. not that anyone's better than anyone else and we are all members, but my point is valid and relative since we are talking about xda,developing,theming, and relevance of # of posts. Point being if you were me, would you take ppl like you and their insults,or opinions as seriously as a dev with 1000 posts? I dont think so.So i will not flame ppl anymore...well ill try my best:D

ppl come in here and start tearing apart what i do, and after the 8th straight insult, im not allowed to get a bit frustrated or retaliate? thats the equivalent to you having an open house for a house you just built by hand and donated to the homeless,then me and 9 other homeless ppl came to the house and started insulting everything about it, and your work ethic and the way you work in general, accusing you of having no talent or skill and doing nothing, after you just built a house for the homeless. If the house was free and you donated it, then who is anyone to insult you or your work? i have to explain it like this because what i do is not relevant to you and is not understood by you clearly when i read your posts(in this thread). I dont have beef with noobs, the ones that request my help via pm are generally the ones i help the most. I do have a problem with ANYONE who comes in my house, $h!ts on my new rug,spits all over my furniture, kicks a hole in my new 67" 3d television and then complains about my choice of decor, after i invited them over to check out my new house.

your second sentence sums it all up"im not a developer and the evo is the first android phone ive owned" that says more than you think, if you knew my backround, you'd know where my confidence comes from. im just sick of noobs coming in with their first phone coming into my threads passing judgement and disrespecting my work due to their lack of knowledge and/or forum etiquette. Thread count becomes relevant when ppl who dont post very often dont know how to interact with others on a forum, which is why they probably dont post in the first place. Also contributing to the site becomes relevant when noobs start disrespecting members who contribute regularly. if you spent the time that i do on this stuff you would also share my point of view, as would most devs.

please do not confuse this with a flame, i mean no disrespect, and have not stated anything other than facts. its just my way of clearing up a few misconceptions you stated in your above post. No insults or flames; just facts.
