Well we might need a place where we can ask questions, instead of dealing with it privately with an admin/moderator, just in case other people have the same problem, let it be universally known, except if it is a personal problem.

No?

Well anyway the chat is not working for me. Refuses to let me on. So any of you smart people out there know what could be the problem?

I do, Meia-chan.

Master answered me this quite a while ago.

The chat does not work yet.

It isn't up.

Just thought You should know.

Your welcome.

Well today he posted that is working now and well its not working for moi. Lol. See topic in annoucements. As of today the chat should be working. o_O But...maybe its a personal problem of mine. THANKS THOUGH.

Well. I'll check it out too.

If it doesn't work for me.

You owe me a cookie.

Nooo...Master owes us a cookie.

hrrmph.

So this may be a universal problem, only that Mill says it works fine for him. o_o Or maybe it DID...

Well I guess I shall remain chatless then. *shaketh fist*

Very well...everything goes in faq's people.

Firefox is the better of the internet browsers out there anyways. I run on Firefox.

Okay, I know I'm reviving an old thread (ALMOST THREE YEARS!), but instead of clouding the forum with another "General Questions" sort of deal, I thought I would continue this one with the retarded question that I have.

At the bottom of the main forum index, all the current online users are listed. Why are some of the names in italics? I don't see a common denominator in the names that I'm seeing in italics, and was just curious as to why they were different?

<3

I think the italics are the names of the users who have clicked on hidden, at least my name is no longer in italics and I have unchecked the hidden status box. *shrug*

Rawk. Thanks. ^^

-rubs her hands deviously, as she can see the sneaky people!!-

I have a question that is simply out of curiousity and I don't want to create a topic about it either.
Ok, when you're in UCP and in the Usergroups tab, what does it mean by "demote selected"? This may be a really dumb question, but I was just wondering since there's a "resign selected" option as well.
Just curious!

Demote, I think, means that if you are a member of multiple groups, you are choosing for that group NOT to be your default group. For example... When I was on staff, I was a member of 4 different Groups: Global Moderators, GWC Vets, Registered Users, and the House of Daggers. I chose for Globals Moderators to be my main user group, so my name was green. Now, GWC is my main group, so my name is Periwinkle. If I wanted my name to be like a normal user, could just demote GWC Vets and my name would no longer be purple, but I'd still be a member of the group. I hope this makes sense.

Another way to do the same thing would be to just make Registered Users my main user group, but I think the demote option is there by default of the forum, perhaps in the off chance that the board owner, Remaeus, decided to get rid of the Registered User group, since EVERYONE is a member of it.

As for the resign option, I assume that is if you want to leave a group, to where you are no longer a member of it at all.

Thanks for explaining things for me Mel. : )

How do you get to the things (topics) you've bookmarked?

User Control Panel -> Manage Bookmarks

It is in the Overview, so one could find it if they check their messages. (One of the tabs.)

Hmm, thanks for answering my question AND proving a point. =)
