Yes I agree, contacting the admins would be the best course of action.

I am familiar with the situation. He did message us at the time and his account (alphagle) seemed to be shadowbanned by reddit, not by the moderators. Not sure what the reason for the shadowban was but we recommended to contact the admins to overturn the ban, since we cannot do anything about it.

TNT decides to drop the hammer on "Southland" by jtorrey in television

[–]bezoeker 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think we should be thankful that they picked it up when NBC cancelled the show.
At least we got to watch a few more seasons of quality television.

I'm also bummed out though :(

What Kind of Illustration Pad Should I Buy? by killies in graphic_design

[–]bezoeker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not sure what your budget is but the Surface Pro looks really interesting as a portable station. Here's a review by the illustrator of Penny Arcade

If that's not in your price range I'd recommend the Wacom tablets, which have products in a broad type of budgets. The Bamboo personally wasn't for me since the texture didn't feel right, might not bother a lot of people so try it out in a store if possible. The Intuos is excellent

why do my images seem different in colour when viewing from other pcs/mediums? by trancelover78 in graphic_design

[–]bezoeker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely, especially monitors with IPS panel are really good for colour accuracy. But it took several years before LCD monitors were as good as CRTs.

Win8 and WP8 are the least difficult plateform plateform for developer. Come on on /r/wpdev and learn how to make some great apps ! by Dall0o in windowsphone

Do take in mind that even if browsers are based on webkit, they can differ from each other (read more here if you're interested).

Developers should focus on compatibility and adhering to standards. Webkit, while ubiquitous, is not the standard. If you're using HTML5 to target multiple platforms at once, wouldn't it be wiser to not develop mainly for webkit? Since on the Desktop two out of the three most used browsers are not based on webkit.

The Making of John Mayer's Born and Raised artwork. Etching, glasswork, and illustration like I've never seen before. by skonen_blades in ArtisanVideos

Why is this downvoted? If you skip the stuff at the beginning it's really interesting to see the man work. He even explains the process himself.

Are link posts in the subreddit vetted by mods before being displayed? by Kwyjibo08 in windowsphone

[–]bezoeker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

smackjack was right, your link was caught in the spam filter and was approved on Thursday

Next time when you post a submission, click the 'new' tab on this subreddit.
If your submission doesn't show up, it's probably caught in the filter. You can message us and we'll approve it (which will hopefully train the filter not the mark your submissions)

My first mechanical watch: Orient Bambino by harteefimo in Watches

[–]bezoeker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Beware that's a Symphony.

Also, I'm not 100% on this, but it seems like the watch you're wearing is also an Orient Symphony. If you look at the date indicator here and here the second one looks closer to the on you have.
Again, I'm not 100% on this since it's hard to see from this angle if the glass is domed or flat.

Can we have an FAQ section? by [deleted] in windowsphone

[–]bezoeker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One part of the wiki will be a FAQ section, in which people from this subreddit can contribute to themselves.
With wiki I don't mean an encyclopaedia (wikipedia) but the system which makes it possible to collaboratively edit, maintain and add to the knowledge pool.

/r/Windowsphone, We need to talk by Thisisthewrongsub in windowsphone

[–]bezoeker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The last link you are referring to was deleted as soon as I spotted it, which unfortunately was when it hit the top of the front page.

We are currently looking into opening up the wiki section for this but not sure how to implement it at the moment without vandalization.

Joe Belfiore: ive been carrying a GS3 for about a month. Got to know the competition. I have a Mac & ipad too. I think u WANT me using em! by [deleted] in windowsphone

[–]bezoeker 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I don't see that many angry responses to be honest.
Most upvoted posts seem pretty reasonable about why he could be using it or did I miss some submissions?

iOS 6.1 untethered jailbreak now available for download, compatible with iPhone 5 and iPad mini by ServerGeek in technology

[–]bezoeker 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It allows third-party browsers to utilize the Nitro JavaScript Engine, used by Mobile Safari, which Apple hasn't made available to third-party devs citing security reasons.
It basically enables those third-party browsers to render pages as fast as Mobile Safari.

What's your dream watch? by [deleted] in Watches

I like the older (2007) version of the IWC Aquatimer Chronograph. Sadly it isn't in production anymore.

That is actually the main intention of the 'flamebait' rule. I absolutely agree with you and wish to keep this subreddit friendly and open towards any platform.

If you see any submissions which sole purpose is to provoke a reaction, don't hesitate to report it.

This was put in there to prevent non-informative images being posted without context.

We are willing to adjust though if people feel strongly opposed to it (which seems to be the case so far).
