hey guys , ive been trawling your forum for a while now on and off , never really posted , but just wanted to say that u guys are great , ive used other android support sites (i wont name incase i break rules) that treat noobs like scum , i actually saw someone give a noob an infraction and absolutely slate him just for posting in wrong thread, dont get me wrong forums need to be sparkly and clean but damn they were really really aggresive about it , not like here, here u always seem to get friendly help and never made to feel foolish . its almost like thier priority is to keep their preciousseesseses threads tidy rather then actually helping anyone . where as here you guys have priorities right , look after users, help eachother , and be nice about it at the same time , all the while maintaining the forums , i think as members we appreciate how hard it can be to juggle all this , dont get me wrong im sure sometimes throttling a noob would release some stress but it never comes across like that (in my experience of phandroid anyway) and i jus wanna say a big thanks for all your work it is appreciated, hope you all have a merry christmas , j x
just realised i clicked wrong and shoulda posted in bigger general thread , hey ho , im sure you guys can move it to spread my appreciation to all the right peeps. thanks again guys

Hello giffigiff. It's good to have you here at Android Forums.
Thanks so much for your nice post. It's great to hear that you've not only found AF to be helpful, but so friendly and welcoming as well. That's just the kind of atmosphere we try hard to maintain around here.
Hopefully, now that you're a member here, you'll enjoy the forums even more.
Thanks for taking the time to introduce yourself in such a nice manor.
If you have any questions don't hesitate to ask.
Thanks,
Liam

Welcome giffigiff!
Now that post of yours makes it all worthwhile helping around here!
Kinda like a big "atta-boy" from the boss, just makes you feel good and gives everyone a morale boost! Not that is was low to begin with because everyone on AF just seems like an online family!
Thanks for the "atta-boy"!!
And thanks for joining!
Edit: this guy is gonna hit 1000 thanks on his first post!
Welcome giffigiff and we are happy you feel that way about our community. Your introduction shows that we are doing something right. I hope you become a regular member here and enjoy yourself even more so here.
Here at Android Forums, we strive to make anyone and everyone's stay as nice and helpful as possible.
Granted we do like to keep our threads organized and on topic but I do think that getting a member the help they need and deserve is our #1 priority here.
You shouldn't have to deal with any abusive members because of a noobish question or anything like that, otherwise that's what that shiny little report button is for.
With that being said, we're very pleased your enjoying your stay here with us and do hope you make Android Forums a regular for you to visit.
As always, if you do have any questions to ask, don't hesitate at all to ask.
DS

My thoughts......we were all noobs at one point.
Welcome out of lurker status and thanks for the kind words, giffigiff!
We were all once noobs at some point so there's no reason to treat those folks differently than the experience ones.
