Old Site and Forums Archive. Edit: Hints for the new board

Subscribing to threads: Go to your USER CP and choose "unsubscribe" if you don't want to get all those notifications!

PMs - Andrus said he was in the process of movingt them from the old board to here.

Reputation Meter: This is a trial period. You only have a limited number of people to rate each day. Hopefully, people will use it to give "attaboy's'" for those who actually add content to the site, rather than to quiet those begging for "attaboys." :D You can always opt out of the whole experiment by going to your own User CP and choosing not to participate.

Many MANY features are still waiting to be added back in. What you were used to on the other board was a culmination of years of tweaking and customizing. The drop down Forum Jump will be back, spellcheck, etc. Just be patient. ;)

From Primadox, regarding subscriptions:

I had to fix this, too...it just involves resetting some options; it may be a good idea to look over all of them to see what was saved and what may have been changed to default. Go to User CP, then Edit Options; the second section down is Messages & Notification; the second box is Default Thread Subscription Mode. The drop down box probably has "no email notification"....if you don't want to subscribe automatically to any threads, change this to "do not subscribe".

Farther down are thread display options if you want to turn off sigs; I also recommend going to the very bottom and changing to standard vs. basic formatting, if you like smilies and such. Again, check over all the options to see what preferences came over with the change and which ones didn't.

I'm no expert (far from it!!), but this worked for me.
