The Mods and Guides are so move happy..maybe I post in this forum becuase I want feedback from the Droid X community or certain people here? THen you move my post? I understand if it was like a tip and trick post and you move it to the tips and tricks but when its a question or a statement and I post it here its because I want it here..It gets really old..whats the point of having a Droid X forum if you move 75% of the posts some where else?

What a wonderful opportunity to direct your attention to posting guidelines. I'll provide you the link and also post appropriate guidelines below. Good luck! :)

Text:

Please begin your topics in the appropriate Sub-topic.

They are:

Accessories: Anything about accessories; questions, comments, accessory sales, etc.

Support and Troubleshooting: Any questions relating to the phone. In the beginning there will be questions because the phone and the OS are or will be both new to you. Questions like, "this or that isn't working" or "call quality" etc. Post 'em here. You get it. Questions relating to support for the phone or the OS.

Tips and Tricks: Informative posts referring to software, hardware or OS "how to's" that X owners or perspective buyers may not have known.

Please check to make sure that your new thread isn't already being discussed in another thread. When you write your topic in a new thread, before you post, it will show you similar topics. Don't start a thread if it's already covered in another thread. The mods and guides will move, delete or merge your topic, if it is a duplicate of another.

Lastly, the larger Site Rules/Guidelines as well as the Zero Tolerance Policy still apply. Please take the time to review those if you have not done so already.

Going through your threads there the one that you posted here (obviously not the one you are referring to).

This one http://androidforums.com/support-tr...129197-droid-x-should-i-call-replacement.html

... and this one http://androidforums.com/motorola-droid-x/128342-ocd-about-your-droid-x.html


You had the one about getting the Droid X replaced that was moved. As Steven mentioned
Support and Troubleshooting: Any questions relating to the phone. In the beginning there will be questions because the phone and the OS are or will be both new to you. Questions like, "this or that isn't working" or "call quality" etc. Post 'em here. You get it. Questions relating to support for the phone or the OS.

As you can see, that clearly falls under the category of Support and Troubleshooting.


Hopefully you can understand that with the volume of users that post AND search these forums daily that the need to organize threads and move them is essential. All of the threads that are moved are moved after careful consideration, there are times when it may have been moved incorrectly (we deal with a LOT of threads and make mistakes just like every other human being out there).

In the future, if you feel that a thread was moved incorrectly, feel free to PM any of the staff and we will be MORE than happy to look over the thread again. In this case, I'm going to side with the person who moved your thread and say that it was moved correctly.

Well I didn't mean anything by me specifically but in general you come on this forum and you just see, "Moved:" all the way down the posts.

I know.... you're so right. That's why I try to leave only an hour for each re-direct notice. It looks so untidy, right? So, just wait an hour and they'll be aaaaallll gone! :) Have a nice day! :)

We do this for a few simple reasons, one is that this is the largest Android forum on the net and things can get a little crowded when a new phone comes out like the X. Second is it keeps things organized, this way if you want to check out some tips and tricks you know where to look instead of cruising through 4 or 5 pages. That brings me to the third reason, having 5-6 pages of new threads is much more difficult to look through then a couple sub-forums.
