Title: SZ FAQs
Post by: jkid101094 on March 30, 2010, 11:26:34 AM
I'm bored and I figured you guys could use something like this. WITH PICTURES! :3

Q: How do I show my sig in my post?
A: It's actually quite simple...
(http://i44.tinypic.com/2jchls8.png)
1. When posting a message you will get this page. Click the Additional Options tab, located to the bottom left of the screen.
(http://i40.tinypic.com/2rwopqf.jpg)
2. You will see a menu pop up with four options. Click the one with no name... The "Show Signature" button is now labeled, making using it super easy.

Now post your post and your sig should appear! :3

Q: What is spam?
A: That is explained here. (http://soniczoneforum.com/index.php/topic,652.0.html)

Q: I tried embedding a video and it messed up!
A: Simply post the link. No special code is required as the forum will automatically recognize the URL as a video.

Q: Can I become a mod/admin?
A: John Gillis will decide that. You can donate money (http://soniczoneforum.com/index.php/topic,7712.0.html) for that position though. You may also join the elections (http://soniczoneforum.com/index.php/board,123.0.html) if you are an svip.


Some of these things are explained in other topics, but sometimes people need to see something twice before they realize it's severity.
Got an ideas for an FAQ? Tell me and I'll add it. Here's hoping for no more stupid questions! :3

Yeah, but people keep asking, and instead of making 80 different topics I just made an FAQ. :3

You made it in the Offtopic section though, so sooner or later it's gonna get buried and moved back into older pages once people make more "The Something Fags" topics. Also the spam section isn't the first place people look for help.

I know. But I figured if it was any help a mod would move it. :)

I'd move it, but there have been many others that have tried, and they've all died out in the tutorials section.. @_@

Q: I tried embedding a video and it messed up!
A: Simply post the link. No special code is required as the forum will automatically recognize the URL as a video.

Q: Can I become a mod/admin?
A: The current admins decide that. You can donate money (http://sonicroms.net/SRForums/index.php/topic,7712.0.html) for that position though. You may also join the elections (http://sonicroms.net/SRForums/index.php/board,123.0.html) if you are an svip.

Q: Can I become a vip/svip?
A: Yes. If you post 100+ times without spamming or donating (http://sonicroms.net/SRForums/index.php/topic,7712.0.html) a minimum of $5.

Q: Can I spam posts to reach 100+?
A: No, but you'd be surprised how stupid some people are. If the mods feel you are a spammer, or you are reported by a member, YOU WILL BE BANNED. Sonic Zone staff are always on top of things.

How do you tell the difference between actuall post and spamming on your account?
Title: Re: SZ FAQs
Post by: xSalashawty on November 06, 2010, 12:47:29 PM
If the post is off-topic, such as replying with "No, it isnt"

discussing the topic is ontopic.
Title: Re: SZ FAQs
Post by: RoyalStallion on November 06, 2010, 01:02:56 PM
How do you tell the difference without visting each and everyone? or do the post show up and the spam ones don't?

Gotta be a bit more specific than that, sir. If you're talking about new posts, just use the "show unread replies since last visit" button next to your avi or the one below it.

Ok you see how it says post on your profile does that number count the spam too or just the regular post?

Only legit posts count towards your post count. If you're gonna spam anywhere but the Off-Topic section (where posts don't count) you'll be banned.
