This is a question regarding the rules (paraphrased above)

You get warnings if you do things like posting crap/porn, single line answers or breach Simon's terms. If you get five warnings ( I believe) you get banned for a limited amount of time.


Why is single line posting such a terrible offense? I do not typically have a lengthy/windy answer or comment about most subjects; so does this leave me out of pretty much most threads? I don't usually have trouble following forum rules but this one is going to be troublesome...

I think the one line response rule was made so people wouldn't post things like "Me too" "I agree" or posts like that. But if you make a good post that add to the conversation but isn't that long you should be ok. Just try to stay away from making posts of just a few words that don't add to the conversation and you'll be ok.

how do I turn off the naughty word filter, and add a sig?


Ty so much

Can't turn off the filter.

I just have a question. What does it mean if you are "flagged"? I've noticed while reading through some of the threads that some mini profiles show certain members as being "flagged" ... and then shows how many times. I've read through the introductory info, but I guess I must have missed the part about flagging. If this is a silly question, I apologize... however, I am curious.

Hey there, Ahh No question is a silly one,


Here is the thread all on flagging, You basicly flag thread you feel are important, or good, www.abovetopsecret.com...

Thank you Asala... I understand better now... and I'm looking forward to using this new flagging option.

Thanks for helping enjoies05! Your posts and SuperMod asala have some of the best explanations that are clear and understandable.

How do I post a "link to thread?" I've already started a few threads and don't want to repeat the discussion already covered there when they touch on a discussion in another thread.

You wrap the address (URL) of that thread with the [url][/url] tags.

For example:

[url]http://www.belowtopsecret.com/forum/thread316399/pg1[/url]

will render this:

www.belowtopsecret.com...

If you want to make it nice with text, the code is modified to this:

[url=http://www.belowtopsecret.com/forum/thread316399/pg1]Swedes fight for topless rights[/url]

which will result in this:

Swedes fight for topless rights

Concept is the same for pretty much any link. Hope this helps

I wanted to test if my signature was set up correctly, so I figured I would take this moment to thank beachcoma for the assistance. Thank you.
