Question: Why can't I post links or pictures?
Question: Why can't I have a signature, avatar, or profile picture?
Question: What's wrong with my account?
Answer: You are in the "registered users" user group. This group is very limited in what it can do. This will annoy spammers to no end Just keep posting once you have been registered for 30 days and have made 11 posts your account will be "unlocked".
It's really easy to put someone on ignore and it's strongly recommended that you do so with people who's posts you don't like.
Step 1 - log in
Step 2 - click on the "settings" link
Step 3 - click on the "edit ignore list" link on the left side of the screen
Step 4 - type (or paste if you copied and pasted it) the username of the person you want to ignore
Step 5 - click the "ok" button on the right of the screen
Easy peasy and will lower your blood pressure. One important note though, this won't hide quoted posts. It's an oversight on the developers part and it's not an easy thing to "fix." So if someone quotes someone you have ignored, you'll see the quote.
Alternatively when you click on a person's name and view their profile page, underneath their avatar, there is a option that says, "Ignore this person". Click that link and then click the yes button.

Mike,
Do you still want us to be collecting this data?
And why do I get bumped out while I'm typing a response? I may be a slow typist, but I think this is the only site that makes me sign in again in mid-reply. Did you lose me? Is this a spammy feature? Have you ever actually tasted Spam?
Thanks.Sher

I would like to collect the info from more than 3 peeps though
I'll double check the activity settings, perhaps I took out a zero by mistake. Didn't lose you and it's not a spammy feature :) Yes spam is nasty ... slimy and salty ... well that was over 2 decades ago, but I won't be trying it again anytime soon
EDIT: Changed the activity timer from 15 minutes to 30. Let me know if you still get kicked out before you're ready to be bootedLast edited by Mike Weins; 02-25-2012, 11:42 AM.Question: Why can't I post links or pictures?
