HTC EVO 4G Guide: Updated 1:25 EST 9/2/10
Members,
I am shamefully stealing Tridents forum specific guidelines and slightly modifying it for this forum. So please read the guidelines below.
Forum Specific Guidelines
In response to the recent behavioral and organizational issues within the HTC EVO 4G forum, I have unfortunately been forced to make this post. Listed below are the new guidelines which you are expected to follow at all times.
Posting Guidelines:
Look before posting a new thread! If you see anything similar then post in it instead.
Use descriptive thread titles when creating a new thread.
Don't make pointless rude/nonconstructive replies. "This thread sucks," etc.
If someone comes here and asks a question, either answer it or don't reply at all.
Stay on topic! Strive to make the topics meaningful by staying with the subject at hand in the first post.
Listen to the Staff. if a staff members asked you to stop, then stop. Be it asking to reopen closed threads, starting a fight, etc.
Behavioral Guidelines:
Name calling - don't do it, period! This needs to stop!
Foul language - it needs to be used at a minimum. In some cases it's alright, but use your common sense.
Something like, "Damn, that's the shit!" - that's fine.
Now, something like, "Go **** yourself!" - That's not fine. Starred out or not.
Using "Gay" - don't do it, period! This will not be tolerated.
Be respectful to all members, ans staff all the time.
If somebody is breaking the rules, there is a report button. Use it!
We always encourage you to report threads, unhelpful users, and anyone being malicious or rude.
Do not take it upon yourself to handle the situation, let an Administrator or Moderator deal with it. If you're not a staff member, don't act like one!
In case you didn't know, the report button looks like this and is located at the bottom left of every post:
If there is a user really getting on your nerves, you can ignore them. To ignore a user, go to your User CP and in the left Nav Panel under Miscellaneous, select [Buddy / Ignore Lists], type the username you wish to ignore in the Ignore List blank and click [Update Ignore List]. Posts from users that you are ignoring are hidden from view when logged into the forums.
To those of you who are active and helpful parts of the community, and those that are just looking for help, we apologize for letting it to get to this point. I would like to see the HTC EVO 4G forum go back to the friendly and welcoming place it was just a few weeks ago!
If you have any questions what so ever, I or any staff member will be more than happy to address those via PM.
Thank you for taking the time to read this and I can only hope that the problems discontinue.
Official EVO Rumors and Speculation The discussion of rumors, speculations, and release dates that eventually are incorporated into the EVO Info FAQ if proven true. (And by proven true i mean confirmed by either Sprint, HTC, Google, BestBuy or anyone showing proof that said rumor is indeed a fact.)
HTC EVO 4G If your post does not fall under any of the above categories, please post your post in the main EVO section.
The HTC EVO 4G unoffical Banter thread This thread is where you will place jokes, youtube videos, way off topic stuff pertaiing to the EVO 4G. Just don't go crazy, because the rules still apply.
Google I/O EVO 30 day free service letter Official letter given to the Google I/O attendees which received a free EVO 4G, explaining their 30 day free service. Post # 3 below
Sprint TV Link discussing Sprint TV and the link to the channels offered
Helpful guide for those new to Android Thanks SprintFun Although its written towards Incredible owners, the Evo will feature the same Sense UI. May be worth checking out for some people who feel like they'll be overwhelmed by coming to a new platform
Final Thoughts
If anyone feels that i missed a thread/topic/link or have more suggestions, feel free to pass them along to any staff member for review.

Being that there were too many stickies in the main section, and some members did not like so many, the following outlines the new structure as well as where those stickies went to.
When Sprint announced their first ever 4G handset at CTIA in March 2010, they dropped a bombshell on the mobile world. The HTC Evo 4G is a device that introduces a lot of firsts when compared to other North American handsets. This is the first Andr... Read More
