I love how you and the others who didn't contribute, manage to spam your way through to 2nd page in my topic.
First of all, they did contribute. Whether you liked what they had to say or not. Second: If you want a thread on a public forum to be yours and under your control, I would advise you to start a blog. This is a forum. People are free to express their opinions. Just as you are free to make silly (and without you even understanding it, dangerous) requests.

Regardless of what your point is, your posts are considered as spam and low level of trolling.
Do some research on what is considered spam at this board, and what the nature of trolling actually is. I doubt the contributors could be labeled any of those two types.

Maybe it's too hard for you guys to understand, but first of all i only wanted a shortcut to skip typing sudo gainroot. It's not a mattered of being "bored" (i never stated that anyway), but it's a matter of efficiency and speed. People create desktop shortcuts to everything such as apps, games, and overclocking tweaks so you can switch from stock to a 1GHZ overclock by just pressing a button. I wanted something similar with the "sudo gainroot" command, i NEVER said i want to get rid of it permanently.
The other day, we had a guy at the board here, who was very upset because his n900 did no longer boot... After deleting the /usr/ directory, that is. You seem to show a similar level of understanding here. So before you start to point your finger at people "not understanding you", it might be wise to sit back and contemplate whether you actually missed something here... From a practical point of view your wish is just the same as bypassing sudo gainroot alltogether. It will enable you to simply press a button and gain rights to change things around which you should not have by just pressing a button. What if you accidentaly press it? Or you leave your terminal open and your kids or someone else walks in and starts playing with your terminal session?

Maybe if you learned to read my question correctly, you'll know what i'm asking isn't something insanely stupid pulled out of my ***
It is stupid. No matter where you pulled it from. Period.

If you actually put enough time to contribute and answer questions posted by others and help out properly, maybe u wouldn't be as useless as your line of mere 3 words.
How about own responsibility and using Google or whatever gets your boat floating? Now you rely on other peoples' knowledge and yet you dare to complain when you are to preoccupied to actually read between the lines (or three words, in this particular case)?

There's no risk in enabling extra-devels, no one cares and people have it enabled anyway. I know what i'm doing, i've overclocked my phone to death and done tons of mods and tweaks to it. Is it so hard for people these days to "FOCUS" on my question? If i wanted a different answer i would've posted another question about it.
If you already knew what answer you wanted, why bother in the first place?

And again, please learn to read. Stop LYING and defending for the other guy when you know DAMN WELL that his 3 word sentence that consists of:

I hope not
is as plain and useless as any garbage you can find.
Explanation:
1. I (singular), expresses the subjectivity of the sentence, as opposed to stating a fact.
2. Hope, expresses the fact that he does not know for sure, but wishes there is no such possibility.
3. Not, the opposite of hoping "yes, there is".

From this simple three-word answer you could have derived quite a bit of information, yet you failed to do so, and prefer swearing and creating conditions to which people have to oblige before they are allowed to answer your royal silliness. Are you for real, dude?
