Maybe there'll be a few less posts asking about sigs and attachments now then, lol.
*guilty*
i just noticed that you are six commandments short of the mandatory ten. i suggest you make new members jump through a few more hoops. possibly groveling at the mods' feet or donating a specified amount of their stash toward the common good.
ok so if i had another account and my e.mail subcription experiered.no email to receive new password. first i tried to contact a administraitor . no reply!then i found a similar name and hadalready posted plenty under other name.so would i be violating the above set of standards for posting pics
Glad to help ^:thumbsup:
I clicked on the link, that helps....right? I'm probably just gonna lurk and just chime in when I actually have something to say now. :p
what's the idea behind making new members post before certain privileges are allowed?
just wondering
Probably at least it deters spammers if they have pic ads. Someone might get banned and decides to make a new account just to give out neg rep in retaliation.
A lot of places automatically have new users on probation. The user actually has to be here long enough to get a feel for the rules. That way you won't see many offensive oversized sigs, offensive pics, and neg rep for no good reasons (of course you still will occasionally). It's a privelage, and it shows its something that shouldn't be taken for granted.
got it.
its just that i've visited other forums where they like to discriminate solely because they have the power to do so
as long as there is some purpose behind it, i find it reasonable.
Yeah, you should find here that as long as you're respectful of others and follow the rules, you'll be ok. After you get your 50 posts (as long as it's been 2 weeks) you get those priveleges. Even if you don't start shit, as long as when someone starts it with you, you show maturity and don't lash out in anger, you'll get respect. Most people here will treat you with respect, although there are always exceptions. I think you'll enjoy this forum a lot. :D :thumbsup: :jointsmile:
Oh man...I came so close to not finding this thread. Pheww! Just missed the dunce cap by an inch. Since this is the feedback and suggestions area I will give some:
Feedback: I appreciate all of the things I have learned here, especially before even becoming a member.
Suggestion:
The rules and regs for new members should not be in the feedback and suggestions area as this section is for feedback and suggestions regarding the website itself. I only found this thread here by accident. There should be a seperate FAQ for new persons section with threads regarding account set up (signatures, rep, how to add yahoo videos, etc...). It could perhaps be incorporated into the user Control Panel.
now if we could just get somethin done about all the closet smokin, and mommy and daddy threads lately realy wierd how they should up all at once
oh and the commanment line is cool
I didn't have to wait 50 posts and two weeks for pic posts... my first two posts had pics. Are these new rules?
dude.... guilty. i just posted a thread and someone was like dude search for this.

sorry ))
I went past 50 posts today, and my account is more than a month old, yet I still can not have a signature or give reputation.
EDIT: Literally less than a minute after posting this I gained these abilities. Weird or what?
I agree with Tea Party: this information is a bit hidden. I'd suggest incorporating it into the CP or an FAQ -- anything to make it more visible.
