Just Wow

Matt,

You know, I'm usually a level headed guy, and if you look at my post history, I'm really neutral when it comes to opinions, but this post just irked me the wrong way. I don't know how familiar you are with the Droid X community, but not every one is as rough as this guy.

I've seen some of your other work, and I do know that you seem like you know what you're doing. Being honest, at the beginning of this thread you kinda seemed like you didn't know what you're talking about, if I hadn't known who you were previously, I might have thought that you're just starting out in romming, or are unfamiliar with obsidian, but that's not what this post is about.

It just infuriates me that assholes, jackasses, whetever you want to label this guy (I'm not using stupid or idiot or whatever since I do not know him or his level of intelligence) have the balls to call someone out for devoting their time and energy into a ROM which they're giving away for free. I don't agree with Fission (donation ware) because of what romming stands for in the community and to me, and thus have ran rooted stock up until Liberty, but that's another story; but this just boggles my mind.

To think, that someone has the audacity to write something like this is really just a black eye to our community. I'm personally sorry for this douche, even if he's not. I hope that Phoenix will be amazing on the X, mostly because I don't have the money to upgrade to the Thunderbolt and am stuck with this piece of garbage until I can upgrade so I need a custom rom to make this brick better.

Jinx, pull you head out of your ass. This has been said again and again and again... Gain some skills, read some books, do some voodoo, and break the bootloader. Once you're done, make a new kernel, and port CM 7 to the X. Until then, you're just someone who's critiquing other peoples work with nothing to show for your own. Come on man, you know the routine. This happens all the time. If Matt's Rom sucks, he'll be forgotten along with his Rom, and he'll disappear into oblivion. Natural selection, and happens all the time. Just like that one idiot back from my Incredible days that bricked his own device and asked for help as he was posting links to that great Rom he developed. Haven't heard from him much, have you Gimeph?

Oh, and Gimeph, come on man. You should know better. Shame on you. I have to say, that as much as the X is a better device over all then the Incredible (which BOTH OF US came from here on XDA), the community of the Incredible compared to the X is amazing.. It just seems like that there are SO MANY users that just expect everything to be done immediately, for Free, and to be awesome; with constant updates. Oh, and they DEMAND IT. It just seems like a bunch of teenies bought X's and decided that they wanted to be haXorZ and they just whine until they get what they want, even though it was never promised to them anyway.

The X has a great number of DEV's, but no where near the amount as the Incredible. We NEED all the DEV's we can get, and I don't want to see an up and coming dev, or a dev who's coding for another device who wants to get their feet wet with the X, get turned off or discouraged from developing for the X because of some guy who's got sand in his mangina and needs to take it out on others.

Jinx, serously, how were you NOT trying to be an asshole? You knew exactly what you were typing when you hit submit.

Ugh... anyways, sorry for the rant. I won't be posting any more on this thread. Feel free do delete this comment, flame me, whatever. I don't care.... just had to put this out there. :mad: :eek:

JUST WOW. The ignorance of some
