Is that really necessary in the Vogue Forum description? Or does PPCGeeks really only want Sprint Vogue users here?

I'm not trying to be controversial but lately I've been thinking of my noob Verizon comrades (and Bell .. and Alltel ... and all the others) that may be passing by thinking that they don't belong here.

Don't say that. There have been plenty of custom roms and threads dedicated for your noob Verizon comrades (and Bell, Alltel and all the others).

I apologize to my elite Sprint Comrades that have endured this very fruitful conversation.

I think you missed my point. I'm not talking about the pioneering noobs like myself and other that ignore the forum description.

But I appreciate your candid arrogance and I'm sure others will as well. Even if it was just in jest, I think it makes it pretty clear that this Forum is really just for Sprint users. If a non-Sprint user bricks his/her phone applying a hack meant only for Sprint... oh well.. shoulda' known better I guess... it's right there in the Forum description.

Fortunately we have PPCHaven (thanks to negamann and brucelee) where non-Sprint noobs can tinker with their phones without concern that the hack they're applying will brick their new phone because it was only intended for Sprint.

People read what they want to, We are all "comrades" here, just with different carriers and devices. Just because the majority of the users are Sprint, doesnt mean there isnt anything out for the other carriers, all you have to do is search!!! (Golden Rule of PPCGeeks) (besides no warez!!!)

i think it would say Sprint Vouge or Sprint Touch, since that is what Sprint calls it, instead of HTC Vogue.

Modz-Can someone close this thread so nobody starts getting into a flamewar. I dont see any benefit or advancement for our devices anywhere in this thread.

I'm gonna step in before this gets really stupid. Do you really think that just because a sub-description of the forum states "Sprint Touch" that it's not for all Vogue/Touch users? The phone goes by a few different names depending on the carrier...so in an effort to alert Sprint users to the name of their phone the sub-description was established.

I know that everyone here is smart enough to figure that out.

Well since no one has ever said that it's intended for Sprint users only I guess it's a good assumption that the forum is for....hmmmm....I don't know...EVERYONE!

Well duh... it's a Sprint Forum! THAT IS my point.

I guess I'm just getting tired of jumping back and forth between PPCGeeks and PPCHaven. And now that I've learned everything I need to get my Verizon Touch working perfectly and exactly like I want (thanks mostly to PPCGeeks) I'm considering where I want to spend my time helping noobs.

Obviously I have a certain loyalty to PPCGeeks but the confusion caused by info that applies only to Sprint, without being identified as only for Sprint, is overwhelming sometimes.... and certainly not necessary. I threw this thread up to see if the confusion was just due to an oversight or due to indifference. Looks like I've found my answer.

Obviously the confusion could be cleared up by requiring posters to identify their carrier or creating separate carrier forums like PPCHaven. But if the PPCGeeks don't care, I guess I don't either.
