    yes it does..i was following the closed thread "company locked out my camera" im in no way backing up what maby33 was saying but i noticed that 3 mods of this forum teamed up on the guy..as a matter of fact the thread became locked and i went back 2 days later to read over it again and noticed one of the mods(a real coward) opened the thread for him/her self and made another post..thread is still closed and maby33 cant come back into the thread to defend his end of the debate..if this is the way this site is ran(ive been mod/member of lots of forums in the past) ill move on somewhere else..i had to give up my mod rights at another forum..because i just didnt have enough time to do the job right(because i have a life outside of the internet)sorry if i offended anyone that this might not be directed to..and you know who you are..and by the way i know you are thinking i know maby33,but i dont..

    Re: oh dear... it does take all kinds doesn't it.....

    What debate, the thread was about the company's policy on company issued property, that you and the user were unhappy about.
    Why dont yens get your own phones and do whatever you want to them???

    this is what im talking about--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Bwahhahhahahha..aahhahahahaa.a..hhahahahaa

    oh dear... it does take all kinds doesn't it.....

    Thank you Abom and Paulcman for attempting to explain everything in clear English... and thank you again for related tangent discussions.... Since MABY33 decided to take this issue up HERE instead of with anyone that could make a difference, perhaps I could call his company for him and ask if they, perhaps, got the cheapest deal possible on a bunch of phones rather than paying top dollar for candy-bar phones without cameras, then disabled all of the features that might cost them money longterm (text and picture messages), then offered them to their employees as a service and safety measure while paying the bills?? Wow... It's called looking a gift horse in the mouth where I come from...

    i never complained about the company policy.i wanted to know if i can somehow get past the user lock on the phone..right now im complaining about how this moderator posted in a closed thread..if a thread is closed it means it is closed!! right or wrong? so how does that give a mod the right to come back in and get the last word? to me it seems very childish..i know someone will probably ban maby33 and i from this forum because we seem to stick up for what is right and moderators dont want to be shown in front of all the loyal members how much of babys and losers they actually are..im done if anyone else wants to chime in with worthless information ill be more than happy to read it and laugh about it..

    Re: oh dear... it does take all kinds doesn't it.....

    The thread was going no where, the OP was making no sense, he kept making the same statements over and over again, but wasn't even being clear about what he was complaining about.

    He didn't like the way his company requested phones to be locked out. Too bad, it's not his phone, and it's not his problem, now is it ? Then he went on to complain that it's OUR fault (the cellular companies) for allowing our corporate customers to request such "lockout" features.

    He did not want to listen to reason, he is simply disgruntled that he cannot use a toy on his communication device that his company has provided him. He also personally attacked us moderators, so yes, the thread was locked and removed.

    Let's add up here. His only posts were in the thread he created where he was complaining and attacking us moderators. He even put up another thread, insulting us moderators once again, after we removed his first thread. He has not posted anywhere else since then.

    So ask yourself, why was he here to begin with ? Did he contribute to the community ? Did he help people ? Did he ask legtimate questions ? No, all he did was complain about something that's not even his.

    So the question comes back, why are you here ? You seem to only be posting about the exact same problem, a phone that's not yours.

    I'll leave this thread unlocked and unmoved, no one else please move it, I am curious to see what harley has to say.

    you are right about the thread..maby33 is obviously not making him/herself clear on what the whole problem is..im not complaining to anyone about that.i was here looking for info on how to get past the user lock on my phone, i am not quite sure why the company locked the phones and personally i dont care..my thing is i dont let anything beat me i love to crack codes..what my problem is here..the last post on the closed tread was posted 2 days after the thread was closed..that isnt cool..maby33 may have some kind of mental instability and thats why he doesnt make sense to you mods..i kinda understand what hes saying,but the problem is --it is a company phone and if they dont want to pay for extra services it is ultimatly the companys choice..i didnt see where he was bashing cell companys maybe he bashed the 2 of you guys a bit because you werent understanding what he was saying..bottom line is---it was way uncool for the mod to post in a closed thread and bash on maby33 after the topic was closed..thats my only complaint..

    Read it again...
    Dont miss the point, its a good one.
    Look past anything that might lead you to believe I hate this and I hate that !
    It wasnt my intention to do that, but those two ran with it.
    This put me on the defensive right away and despite the good effort on my part, further lost me from the point.

    Not sure yet, but thanks to those posters/admins, I still havent seen the aire in my thinking on this issue.
    A company shouldnt be able to put bunches of phones in thier company name.
    This is the most complicated way I can think of for putting phones in employees hands. Now, I am new to the whole idea and new to my job. The last thing I need to do is take it up with my new managers, so I am just asking the question here.
    If you didnt want to get into it with me, fine, then dont post. But to argue like a child. And whats with those avatars ?
    I am sure I can think of more arrogant ones.
    Who needs it !

    I know I am right. The phone should be in my name. This makes it a win win for everybody IMHO.
    Too bad I cant continue this issue here with you to prove it. I guess I am not allowed....
    The only thing they wanted to say over and over, is that a company has ever right, bla,bla,bla... gift horse in the mouth.
    I just Let it go.

    But when my thread got closed by one of the admins posing as a regular Joe, I was pissed, and sent him a good bye letter, for which he replied with ok then bye, laughter....

    So you see, harley, its probly worse then you thought.

    Abom, I see you've just posted while I was making this post.
    Thing is, you are not being insulted when its your forum to moderate.
    Did I help people, thats not my job dude.

    Repeating what I am saying in my thread should be my peragotive.
    BTW, that original poster has an ID name ya know.
    You have no repsect for others and it shows when you reply and it shows in your avatar. If you want more respect from people like me, maybe you should do somthing about the way you carry yourself. If I didnt make sense to you then, you could have asked me to help you with that ! Not imply that I am retarded.
    Keep doing what your doing dude. I shouldnt have to kya to post here, you should kiss mine. I will not live in fear of being banned or persecuted for my thoughts.

    The "real coward" is an admin to whom threads are never locked... they are not locked to mods here either... its kinda a perk of doing the work - you can occasionally have the last word in an entirely unfair manner... we also have an entire secret subforum dedicated to ridiculing... its called stress relief

    ...ummm... no... it really doesn't matter as much to us as it seem to matter to you. You are entitled to your opinion and I am entitled to mine. ...and its *****ed "babies" - thanks for chiming in so I could smirk a bit too... not quite worthy of a full blown laugh yet.

    I take issue with the fact that your company is giving you a phone to use and that it isn't good enough for you ... "Gift horse in the mouth!" The logic behind "phone should be in my name" is faulty as well... you CAN have a fully capable phone IN YOUR NAME by walking into the nearest store... the only difference is that someone else (your company) isn't paying the bill... Honestly, if someone were to hand me a company cellphone free of charge and didn't mind if I used it for personal calls?! I'd have no problem with it! Just go with this mantra, "Someone else is paying the bill, someone else is paying the bill, someone else is paying the bill...."

    You are both entitled to your thoughs without persecution. I am certain that the answers to MABY's plea would have been similar had it not been mods doing the responding. the mods in question were simply doing their job in answering the thread - they, and later I, disagree with MABY... MABY disagrees back... Mods try to explain their reasoning... MABY stomps feet like a petulant child and says "I know I am right".... So.... the thread became pointless, and its good that it was closed... If you want to take me on for posting after the fact, I know of a very nice forum with a flaming section that I'll refer you to... My arguments are, "I've been here since the beginning, I post where I wanna" and "I will always support the good people who do the work on this board, especially in the light of a frustrating situation with an argumentative member"

    ok you got me you are very smart!! im so glad you corrected me on *****ing "BABIES" the proper way..
    like i said the whole time..you are the reason im pissed off..2 days after the thread was closed you come in and run your mouth like a coward..you finally come forward to face the music..since all you normally do is teach it..not face it. you must teach young children and i will not bad mouth you for helping children learn such an important thing..i love music! but i honestly think you have been around these children too long..because you certainly act like it..

    Re: oh dear... it does take all kinds doesn't it.....

    Look, you're starting a flame war with who? Staff? I don't think that this is going to go nicely if it progresses to a higher state. This entire war is over Maby33 not posting clearly and is posting random thing that don't really have anything to do with... well, anything. I suguest that you, mayb33 and harleyrider, both stop and think before you post. And before you tell me to read it all again, I did. Twice. I still don't understand it. Oh, and a company cannot lock features integrated into the phone and has nothing to do with the bill. That's a software issue buddy. Now calm down and stop all this nonsense. It's not worth getting banned or loosing your credibility or respect over. (I'm surprised that this isn't locked yet ). There, now my venting is over, lol, sorry.

    yes the company did lock the features in the phone..my camera worked and now if i try to use it it asks for a 4 digit unlock code..this all happened after the supervisor took my phone and locked it..and im not to concerned about being banned because i havent got one peice of good information from anyone here..i mean anyone should know features can be locked out of a phone..i know it and im far from being an expert!! also im not looking for any respect here..im like good old rodney dangerfield..i just dont get any respect ..or give any--as you can see.... peace..and ps. robb if i have a software issue in my phone cant you help me.since you are the co-owner of a computer business??

    I guess they must have "hacked the software" That's not possible unless they had a custom flex installed on the phone which:

    1. would cost thousands of dollars to devolope, and
    2. is highly unlikley.

    So who is who here... you both are reffering to Mayb33's problem as your own...

    Also... you came back under a NEW username to start a flame thread? not a good idea. Maybe if you don't like us so much, you shouldn't be here.
    dude you are clueless!!! all you have to do is get into the security features on the phone and lock different services..do you even know the functions of the phone i have? samsung a640.. think before you type you are making yourself look bad and you might lose some credability..
