- Why should I register an account on the board?

    By registering an user account, you will be able to post on the board as well as use several features only accessable through registering, such as the ability to mark forums as read and private messaging. Unregistered users have guest access to the board, meaning they can view threads but cannot reply to them.


- Are cookies used for this board?

    Yes, it uses cookies to store your login information. You can still use this board with cookies disabled, but you'll have to enter your username and password every time it's asked, and some features may not be available.


- Can HTML be used?

    Yes, it can be used in posts, private messages, nearly everywhere except in things such as thread titles, usernames, etc.


- Is there some sort of replacement code for HTML?

    Yes, but it's a bit limited. Here's what can be used: (most are case sensitive)
[b]Bold text[/b]
[i]Italic text[/i]
[u]Underlined text[/u]
[s]Stroke text[/s]
[img]URL of image to display[/img]
[url]URL of site or page to link to[/url]
And several color codes such as
[red], [green], [blue], [orange], [yellow], [pink], [white], and [black]
(put [/color] to revert to normal color)


- What is Level and EXP, and how do I get more EXP?

    EXP is calculated from your amount of posts and how long it's been since you registered. Level is calculated from EXP. You gain increasing amounts of EXP by posting, and by being registered longer.


- How do I add my stats to my posts?

    In a way similar to HTML and the markup replacements (described above), just put those where you want the numbers to be:
TagValue
&numposts& Current post count
&numdays& Number of days since registration
&level& Level
&exp& EXP
&expdone& EXP done in the current level
&expdone1k& EXP done / 1000
&expdone10k& EXP done / 10000
&expnext& Amount of EXP left for next level
&expnext1k& EXP needed / 1000
&expnext10k& EXP needed / 10000
&exppct& Percentage of EXP done in the level
&exppct2& Percentage of EXP left in the level
&expgain& EXP gain per post
&expgaintime&Seconds for 1 EXP when idle
&lvlexp& Total EXP amount needed for next level
&lvllen& EXP needed to go through the current level
&5000& Posts left until you have 5000
&20000& Posts left until you have 20000
&rank& Current rank, according to your amount of posts
&postrank& Post ranking
&postrank10k&Post ranking you'd have with 10000 less posts
&postrank20k&Post ranking you'd have with 20000 less posts
&date& Current date



- What are the "syndromes" and how do I get them?

    The syndromes are based on how many posts you have made in the last 168 hours. The amount of posts required for each syndrome is as follows:
PostsSyndrome
5Affected by 'Dietz's Stutter Step Syndrome'
10Affected by 'Sean's Stupid Joke Syndrome'
15Affected by 'Nate's Frisbee Wrist Syndrome'
25Affected by 'Joel's Pelican Syndrome'
30Affected by 'Collin's Purple Pheldigriff Syndrome'
40Affected by 'Will's SPAM Syndrome'



- What are the user rankings?

    It's all listed on the Ranks page. Ranks nobody is on and which you didn't reach aren't listed (to keep some suspense), unless you're a full moderator (moderating all the forums) or administrator on this board.


- What are announcements?

    Announcements are general messages posted by administrators only. Everybody can view them, but not reply to them.


- What do the username colors mean?

    They vary depending on the gender and power level:
Banned
Regular, male
Local moderator, male
Full moderator, male
Administrator, male
Banned
Regular, female
Local moderator, female
Full moderator, female
Administrator, female

Local moderator, unspec.
