    Default Ridiculously long/inefficient threads


    These 50+ page threads are unnecessary. It is impossible to find ANY information in them without reading all 50+ pages. Individual threads should be made for EACH issue instead of lumping ALL threads into one humongous novel.

    This is the only forum I have seen that promotes and demands this type of posting...what is the deal??

    Actually, I have no problem with people starting new threads if they have a legitimate question; when a thread is fifty plus pages, I agree, it is almost impossible to find the answer to your question within that thread.

    I apologize if someone has been overzealous and discouraged you. That is not our intent here.

    Also, you could use the search feature to find specific posts about what you're asking, rather the a thread.

    there is alot of stuff that is useless, its sometimes really hard to find an answer in a thread wih lots of pages

    but all you really have to do is make a new thread if you want your question answered, theres lots of people here who would love to help

    This is what discouraged me: http://androidcommunity.com/forums/f...-issues-17084/

    I understand and agree with trying to minimize the amount of repeated threads, but having ALL comments/questions/issues with an ENTIRE software build seems pretty unnecessary.
