- Very well said indeed! I still believe it was retribution for what they saw as borderline bannable activities a few Ramblers. Your statement about "if the mods had taken the time to read the thread since the 9650 dropped they would see that the social stuff was far less than the very useful, informative and educational posts" rings of the truth.There are far less informative threads then this one on many other sections that are allowed to stay. I'm still calling BS on this one.
My 524 hybrid is running fine. Still good battery life and speedy as well. I'm tempted to try Kings latest and might after some user experiences come in. Supposed to be repaired now. I hear there is a rumor of a leak to come in the 600+ range. I forget what.04-15-11 11:45 PMLike 0 -
I would agree that there was and always has been some social stuff in this thread; however, if the mods had taken the time to read the thread since the 9650 dropped they would see that the social stuff was far less than the very useful, informative and educational posts that were constantly being posted. I for one and I'm sure others cut my BB teeth in this thread and then branced out to other threads in the forum to offer help and support for those that I could offer some assistance to.
I have been hanging out in this thread since it was very young and other than JayDee one of the ones that have been here the longest. I think JayDee has me beat but can't think of anyone else except perhaps for Paul. Pre-drop of the 9650 it was not very social here because we were all grousing about the continued delays in its arrival on the seen; however, there certainly was some social stuff going on and it is how I met JayDee and a few others. By the way, where the H-E-L-L is tourboy??????
All that said, it is here in this thread that I learned 90+ percent of what I know about BBs, the Tour and the Bold. To have learned as much as I have in my mind says that this is a long way from a social thread. The only way they can call is a social thread is that we have all become friends and look out for one-another.
Okay, enough ramblin. I'm just annoyed that they have kicked us to the curb as they have. Very inconsiderate, and I'll leave it there so as not to give them fodder to suspend me next for saying what I think!
FWIW

I was told that they had been thinking about this move for a while and that it should have happened sooner.

EDIT: I have to admit, though, it is strange to find us down here with the PIN-perverts. I never would have thought about using my Bold for BBM sex or PIN porn.Last edited by Underway99; 04-16-11 at 12:07 AM. Reason: add note

Cover your eyes (and screens) first. Generally NSFW (not safe for wife). Look at some of the app reviews in AppWorld, too. Same thing.

- Oh yeah. I was never a huge Ralph Kramden fan, though.
It would seem to me that if this thread had been here in the bowels when the whole personal attack thing came up, it would have been a non-issue. My $0.02.Last edited by Underway99; 04-19-11 at 11:54 AM.
04-16-11 12:43 AMLike 0 - I just noticed something. On that "adult leave your pin" thread, Nobody has any post history. Which means they joined just to jump on the porn pin wagon. How crude is that? And Crackberry condones this crap?? Holy shat tho, don't call out someone for being an irritating imbecile. But feel free to join up on our pin porn facillitation thread. Just leave your pin courtesy of crackberry and get hooked up with lowlife porn scumbags exchanging pornography right on your BB. The hypocrisy is blatantly extravagant to the MAX. I did not know this. I have a whole new level of disrespect for the A hole who thought this was a good idea! GEEZ Loueeeezz!! This is disgusting.
I thought this was BB talk, info and help. Not leave me your number and I'll send you naked picks of me and my little friend named D!ck

04-16-11 12:44 AMLike 0 - I have a buddy that works in Riyadh for several months of the year. He said that they don't typically talk much about it, but this is one the big reasons that the desert governments were holding RIM over the barrel last summer about access to BES and BIS. Yes, it's about internal security, but it's also about a tool that is being used to circumvent some of the government-imposed social rules.
I have to admit that I'm surprised that you didn't know anything of this. That's why I will not post my PIN in the forums. JayDee has it, and one of the hybrid builders. That's it. You post a PIN here, and at some point, you'll find yourself on the receiving end of some of those solicitations. In fact, I was warned about it in one of the forums when I first started here with my Tour.Last edited by Underway99; 04-16-11 at 01:01 AM.

I think this stuff is everywhere for someone whr really wants to find it. The most depressing part is the decision to put this thread, which was comitted to help people with the 9650, right next door. I'm surprised someone with a name like ChriStytAtAs hasn't left its PIN here already.

And what do we do when that happens? Maybe we can suggest another place on the site.04-16-11 01:06 AMLike 0 -
- You bring up a good point, though. Maybe we can talk the MODs into setting a few of us up with MOD access just for this thread, so that we can police our thread ourselves. I suspect that there is likely no monitoring or supervision of the social threads.04-16-11 01:14 AMLike 0
- I'm not suggesting somebody take charge of this entire part of the site. Not at all. Just this thread, to keep that kind of posting out.04-16-11 01:23 AMLike 0
- Yeah, an eye opener for me. I've been here a year and never entered one of these threads before. Now I understand the stigma of being put here. I think this is just the wrong place for a thread that helps people with their berry. Right next door to the porn shop with the sticky floor. Yuck!
