Friendly Reminder to all members

[stumpie]

I say we give all the Mods here a standing ovation for making this a great clean place to learn/help/ and read about the droid ....

[cuskit]

I know exactly what CK is talking about. I see it happen to members in the Introduction Thread constantly, and more often if a new poster makes the mistake of just posting in a regular forum on their first post.

I don't know when this forum started but The Motorola Droid, the one most of us use has only been around since the start of November. Technically that makes us all n00bs IMHO and we should keep that in mind. I still Google answers all the time for new people because the truth is I don't remember everything off the top of my head.

One other thing I would like to point out is I've noticed people criticizing the mods, saying they are too quick to close a thread. This happened recently with a fairly new person who complained about a 2.1 thread being shut down. That's done to avoid clutter, and the mods here not only do great work, they are quick to get it done and for that I give them credit.

Thanks CK for bringing up this reminder to everyone. We are indeed all here to help each other.

Hook brings up some very profound points here! And given the number of his posts - I'd say that qualifies him for providing excellent advise! Especially relative to the work our Mods here are doing. They are mostly in overdrive here, striving to stay on top of what is a phenomenal amount of posts. Patience with others contributions and questions will always pay off. cuskit

Starting a thread is very easy. Just click on whatever forum you want to post in. Then on the top left of your screen (about 3-4 lines down) you'll see a red box with the words "new thread" - just click on that and start typing away in the box that opens! Simple! Don't hesitate to ask if you need more! mikey

hey thanx mikey and just to ask when will the mikradle we love so much be available in the DF store

[mwhartman]

For me, the value of this forum has been the quality of the members and their willingness to help and share. There are enough nasty people out there so lets all show patience and tolerance!

To tell you the truth, I hadn't thought about distributors yet. I kind of like to stay close to my customers, and be more of a one on one with them. I've learned long time ago through my custom cabinet shop (I build high end cabinetry - wall units, entertainment centers, bars, libraries as well as custom kitchens and baths) that once the customer loses contact with the guy building his projects, the experience may be less desirable than expected.

MIKRADLE is not just a cheap, offshore (made in china) extruded plastic trinket. It's a handmade, meticulously crafted piece of art. I spend a lot of time on each one, especially with the finish - hand rubbing through 7 coats of catalyzed lacquers. You'd be surprised at how much work goes into each MIKRADLE! This kind of handiwork lends itself to being more in touch with each buyer - something you lose when you go through distributors.

That's not to say that down the road I might contemplate something more, but for the moment - I'm concentrating on selling as I am and moving the sales end onto my own website (hopefully in another week). Okay?

I might hasten to add that I was in no way implying that the DF Store does not have quality products! On the contrary - they do have some very awesome stuff there! But what I'm talking about is that MIKRADLE is more like a custom product - a very unique item that is almost hand tailored for each customer.

May I inquire as to why you'd like to see it sold there? Are there any negative aspects to my current venue (through my presence on eBay) or future sales on my own website? I'm all ears as to what potential buyers might be looking for.

Perhaps you can respond here MULTIMEDIA DOCK - MIKRADLE - For use WITH covers and jackets! where it would be more appropriate. I would not want to be accused of hijacking this thread! mike
