Hello, I've just checked, and the desired name seems to be already in use. Can you please provide me with three alternatives. You can also contact me via PM.
And this form brings you directly into contact with our admins for a change of user name if you prefer that way more:

That was on my 65th birthday. Shouldn't be an excuse but I'd probably other things in my mind. Great that you captured it; thanks very much.
@woodman Merci beaucoup for resolving the issue.

Thanks a lot, I didn't saw this change coming too fast.

Hi, I want to change my username to "kleest" to streamline it with my usernames on other platforms. I tried to contact you via the form many days ago, so far no response.

I have made your request known to the interested parties. Please be patient, and thank you.

I'd like to change my username from this to Hawk (account exists but guy hasn't logged in since 2005). If you don't want to remove that inactive account, then a change to Alexness.

Quick question, what do all these THANKS mean and what happens when you reach a certain amount of them? Also, do you lose THANKS (points) if someone thanks you and gets their account deleted or that person gets ban?

New App Store, LockAppStore

Hello,
I have made this App because those who do not want to give out their source code can use this App. fks Bank, as well as large companies.
I'm 1 person on this project right now. Be patient with me right now.
Info:
Why http and not https? Because it costs money to have sub domain.
8080 why that? because I have multiple Servers. My router is pointing!
Front-end is crap right now!
Here you can upload a new App to the appstore: (http://lockappstore.people8people.com:8080/)
You can download it here LockAppStore: (http://lockappstore.people8people.com:8080/?menu=down)
All Apps are approved by an Admin, in the long run there will be more Admins.
The more deveolps the more Apps get there. on This LockAppStore.

No update, though given the server admin's schedule, I wouldn't necessarily expect an update unless there is an on-going problem.

The prompted message should NOT give any detail if the entered email is used in the db, or not!
That needs to be adressed imho asap!

What a mess in here... Instead of deleting this thread the mod decided to delete the post I made, after checking your reply, in:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...recommendations-for-xda-improvements.4300729/
... but hey, its actually not a recommendation, its a security flaw and therefor bug report. So maybe the mod was right to leave this thread. Still confused

I just fixed this by standardizing verbiage across both situations. Thank you for bringing it to our attention @GuestNoOne !
Lol. Mods thanking each other to gain more likes - while the one who brought it up doesnt get any.
That phenomen got a name and aint healthy...

We don't care about likes anymore, this is no longer significant at this point, for moderators at least. We are not chasing them.

Fixed! You got likes now, thanks!
Yeah that happens, I've seen moderators (myself included) affected by this situation as well, don't worry, e.g. a moderator posts a smart question or an interesting issue and only the other mod who answered got likes! This is not specific to non-moderators, trust me.

You are allowed ONE User Account at XDA-Developers. If you create additional accounts, Moderators will disable them and your original account may also be disabled or infracted.
