What are Personal Smilies? |
From the 1000s of smilies in the SmileyList you can pick your favorite smilies, which will then be shown next to every post and edit form.
That way you can easily add them to messages.
|
|
Can I send messages to other users? |
Yes and there are several ways to do that. If the user is showing his eMail address directly on the forums, you can mail him through your own eMail program.
If a user is hiding his eMail address but has enabled the Formmailer option, you can send him an eMail through the Formmailer. That way you will not see his eMail address unless he decides to reply.
If a user has disabled both options, you can either try to use the Private Message system or contact him otherwise through the forum. Please be aware that opening several threads to get his attention is not a good start to make contact.
|
|
What are moderators good for? |
|
Moderators are users with some more privileges than the average user. They usually moderate one ore more forums and can edit, move, delete, rename, etc. other people's posts.
|
|
How can I create a new event in the calendar? |
To create a new event in the calendar click on the 'New Event' button.
In the event creation form you can choose if the event should be private or public. To mark an event as private choose the option 'private event'. Private events can only be seen and edited by the creator. Also they are shown in a different color in the calendar overview.
|
|
Why is there a Team page? |
On the Team page you can see all the administrators, super moderators and moderators, in short the people who have the power on the board. ;)
If there are any issues you need help with, the Team page is a fast and easy way to contact someone who can help you.
|
|
How does the Userlist work? |
The Userlist is divided in 2 lists:
On the one hand there's the Friends-list. This list provides an easy way to see who of your friends is online and you can directly send them eMails or Private Messages.
On the other hand there's the Ignore-list. Users on this list can't send you Private Messages or eMails through the Formmailer. Also their posts will not be visible to you but in the threads there's always the possibility to still show the posts of ignored users.
Please keep in mind that when adding new users to your Userlist you must write 1 username per line. Depending on the administrator's settings you might not be able to ignore moderators and administrators.
