No not about our rules, I mean about posting in general. How to embed, the bookmark feature I never see anyone mention which works incredibly well, post editing and deleting, auto filters and how they work, image posting, skin changing.
A list of all of that kind of stuff.
I'm just going to insert it INTO the rules forum under the board rules for easy access when it's done.

Saying this here so I know to check it later, but how to effectively remove a quote from within a quote when quoting someone and you don't want the other quote there. I see that get messed up all the time and I usually edit their posts to fix it.

Wouldn't a lock be more effective as a warning to see what everyone did wrong? I'm not sure how bad it got because I was at page 10 and when I clicked on page 11 it told me the thread was deleted. Like was it that bad to delete a big page thread that is a few months old?

Like was it that bad to delete a big page thread that is a few months old? The thread could have been locked but the post that put it over the edge would have already been deleted (along with the posts that followed quoting the post in question). It then would have been locked with a message about flaming even though there wouldn't be any flaming visible in the thread. As I said, I moved the thread straight to deleted so the more active Staff could discuss the matter of whether it should be tidied up and moved back. The general consensus was it was a topic that was always going to end up with something like that happening (even if it took four months to get there) and even with a warning and being re-introduced, would have to be heavily monitored as it would inevitably go back down the same path.

How do I mark a thread such that I always get notices of when it updates?
I mean, I know I've been here long enough that I should know that, but the situation never came up before!

When I click that 'bookmark thread' thing so I can view a thread later, how do I get to it? Is it in my profile or something?
Disregard. I'm an idiot.

Hey everybody, having an issue I've experienced for a while now.
I don't have an option to participate in polls. Choices will be listed but there's nothing to select and "the results... are hidden until voted upon". Don't believe I've ever voted in one thinking back and curious as to what's going on. Thanks for whatever you can do to help.

Because we don't want 5000 page threads floating around.

Cornfed can correct me if I am wrong but it started with early versions of Proboards when anything over 30 pages collapsed into a nothingness we could not fix. That got improved upon but we kept things that way out of ease to find things and tradition (you can see stuff from the 05-07 archives where something like he RAW threads will be 10 pages because of it). Eventually we upped it to 100 as that allowed the more popular threads to keep moving without flooding the board and kept it so the staff could find things in them easily should a thread cause issues.

For future reference, if needed how exactly do you put a user on ignore/block?

For future reference, if needed how exactly do you put a user on ignore/block? Click on their user name. When their profile comes up, click on the gear icon on the far right. A menu will come up and the first option is "Block Member".

Where do I find the settings for "Custom Title?" I don't know where this Toy Story thing I have on mine came from and I want to get rid of it.
