I agree with the moderator, why do people think they needed to post their auto response letter from htc or some other off topic nonsense in the rooting process thread in development, also trolling in development. The devs are trying to accomplish something and all I kept reading was copy and pasted emails on every other page. The mod has warned the users several times this is against the rules of xda and will be enforced, yet people still post off topic and non related dev stuff in development cluttering up the thread.
Now you guys are all butt hurt because you had to take a one day ban because you can't follow directions. Ni**a please. Even after making examples of what not to post people continued to do it, I probably would have been a tougher mod, but I think he's been more than fair.
As far as closing thread, I guess that's what it takes to get people to understand not to post in a development thread unless its development related.
