2. Can I send Private Messages?
This is planned for the near future. Your PMs and Buddy Lists were not carried over from the old message board.
3. Why can't I log in?
Have you registered? You must register in order to log in. Have you been banned from the site? If so, you should contact the webmaster or board administrator to find out why. If you have registered and are not banned and you still cannot log in then check and double-check your email address and password. Usually this is the problem. Some usernames had to change in our migration to the new system. In those cases, the first time you login you will be given one chance to update your username.
4. I've lost my password!
You can request to email your password to you on the Register/Login page.
5. I registered but cannot log in!
First check that you are entering the correct username and password. All new accounts require a final step activating. When you register we will send a confirmation email to you. You’ll need to click a link in that email to finalize your account.
6. The times are not correct when I post
You have the option to set your timezone when editing your profile. This way the time on the boards will be adjusted for you.
7. How do I show my image next to my username?
You’ll need to EDIT your profile and upload your own profile image (JPG format). All uploads require admin approval. So before it shows up on the site, you will get the generic “Pending Approval” user photo. Approval usually happens within 24 hours.
8. How do I post a topic in a forum?
Easy -- click the relevant button on either the forum or topic screens. You need to register before you can post a message.
9. How do I edit or delete a post?
You can't delete a post, but you can EDIT your post within 30 minutes of posting.
10. How do I add a signature to my post?
You click "Edit Profile" and you'll see a box for your Signature. Please note TEXT-ONLY signatures are supported at this time. No HTML or Photos.
11. Buddy Lists
You can keep a Friends list from your Profile page.
I hope this helps....*crazy smiley*

Can't post image next to username
The system won't let me update my profile. It keeps telling me that I need to select gender and no matter which I select...it won't take it. Any ideas?
