Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

[Turner]

Would you be allowed to Have a thread title;"SEX!!!" and then start the thread with;"Now that ive got your attention..."

No. Please see the forum rules, where it says you must have descriptive titles for threads.

Also, why do you have to ask permission for "Ask a __"threads?

Because quite a few have been made that was nothing but spam.

Would you be allowed to Have a thread title;"SEX!!!" and then start the thread with;"Now that ive got your attention..."

I don't think it would pass. And I think its in the rules to have clear titles for threads.

Also, why do you have to ask permission for "Ask a __"threads?

Too many of the ask a threads have emmerged ... the mods want to make sure there is no spamming done with those threads.

 

[Turner]

Wow! Deja vu!

 

[Ansar]

Nice crosspost.

Turner, why dont you tell people of your new avatar in the new Avatars and Custom User Titles thread?

 

[Turner]

Pay attention.

Didn't see a reason to bring it up a second time. I'm not really a "Look At Me!" type person.

Oh, I didn't see it. Moving along...

TF wouldn't let me change my name when I asked...

and I don't even have 3,000 posts... :ack

but now I don't want it changed

It may appear that i'm not getting mine changed either, because i'm not getting any reply.

I think TF has said that name changes are on the bottom of his 'to do' list.

While lurking around the Who's Online page:

I found 2 users that were: "Viewing thread" and it didn't say what thread they were looking at.

What's up with that ?

 

[Mirc]

Were they mods? They could have been viewing some thread in the staff forum...

Nope; most mods are invisible anyway.

 

[Duke of Marlbrough]

There are certain forums that are hidden. If members are in those forums then it may not show their current activity.

 

[Heretic_Cata]

Aye, you're right. One of them is a member of the Fallout mod team; and one of them member of some civ4 thing.

Cheers.

Since when have we been able to edit our thread titles by double clicking the thread title from the main OT screen!?!?!

 

[Mirc]

We can do that?

 

[thetrooper]

I can't.

[Duke of Marlbrough]

For those who can't, just make sure you are not actually clicking on any of the text for the title, but the line for the title off the text.

 

[Ginger_Ale]

And I think it has to be within 5 hours of the thread's creation, just like normal title-editing. It's just a quicker way of doing so...

 

[Red Door]

Is there a way to delete all of my subscriptions?

I want to start actually using the subscription instead of having all the threads I post in listed.

 

[Ginger_Ale]

Go here, check the threads you don't want, and select the option "Delete" at the bottom of the page.
