Questions & Answers :

 


How do I post a topic in a forum?
Easy -- click the "Post new Topic" button on either the forum or topic screens. You may need to register before you can post a message.


Why can't I access a forum?
Some forums may be limited to certain users or
groups. To view, read, post, etc. you may need special authorization
which only the forum moderator and board administrator can grant, so
you should contact them.


What are Smileys?
Smileys, or Emoticons, are small graphical
images which can be used to express some feeling using a short code,
e.g. :) means happy, :( means sad. The full list of emoticons can be
seen via the posting form. Try not to overuse smileys, though, as they
can quickly render a post unreadable and a moderator may decide to edit
them out or remove the post altogether.

What are Administrators?
Administrators are people assigned the highest
level of control over the entire board. These people can control all
facets of board operation which include setting permissions, banning
users, creating usergroups or moderators, etc. They also have full
moderator capabilities in all the forums.


How do I change my settings?
All your settings (if you are registered) are
stored in the database. To alter them click the My account link
(generally shown at the top of pages but this may not be the case) or
on your "name".This will allow you to change all your settings.
