Q. Why have I been deleted?
A. You may have been deleted for many reasons, spam, unpleasent posting, banned, but the most likely reason is a lack of correct email address.

Ok, stupid i know but it needs to be asked, how exactly do you send messages, Ive been here a couple of months, but i cant figure it out :oops:

[Durin Strongbeard]

Could you please update the ranking system? I turned into a lord at 900, it doesn't seem curently accurate to ME.

Gotrek and felix, look at the bottom of each post. There are a few buttons with little icons and names like [b]profile, etc.

Click on the one with 2 little people icons and the name [b]pmessage to that poster.

Feel free to try pm-ing ME as a test.

How do I get one of those Dwarf avatars?

[Iroxx Ironside]

I'm relatively new, and not to smart with computers, so please forgive ME if the question sounds stupid.
How do you delete a post? I've accidentally posted something twice
How do you access you file to put location ect. on that you didn't originally?
Does a post stay on the board until it gets pushed off?
My computer often asks for my login password twice, and sometimes more than twice before it allows ME to post. Are you supposed to login twice, or more? Or is my computer just screwy?

No problem, Iroxx. Remember, there are only stupid answers, no stupid questions.

How do you delete a post? I've accidentally posted something twice

You can delete your own posts by looking at the ToP-right corner of your post. It should have several buttons there, including a quote-button, an edit-button and a button with a cross on it. This last button can be used to delete your own posts. Note that if you start a new thread and someone has replied to it, you can no longer remove the whole thread. In that case, pm one of the admins, and they can remove it for you.

How do you access you file to put location ect. on that you didn't originally?

You can edit your profile by clicking on the "profile" link in the ToP right corner of the screen, next to the Bugman's Brewery sign. This link will take you to your profile page, where you can edit your location, among other things.

Does a post stay on the board until it gets pushed off?

A post will stay on the board for a limited period only. It will slowly go down the boards as new threads are started, and after a while it will be deleted from the database, to save storage space. How long this takes, depends on where you post, as some sections will be busier than others.

My computer often asks for my login password twice, and sometimes more than twice before it allows ME to post. Are you supposed to login twice, or more? Or is my computer just screwy?

This shouldn't normally be necessary. Not sure why you would have to enter your password more than once. You might want to check this one with Bugman himself.

Hope this helps!

If needing to login several times, delete all your cookies and then reboot your computer and try again, as 99.99% of the time, its a cookie problem - Bugman

[Thorgrim Tunderhammer]

how is the points awarded in this rangk system

[grantos]

Wow, this is serious threadomancy.


Number of posts = rank. Doesn't mean you can spam. You have to build up your posts over time. Unlike ME :oops: or Grimgar

[Bugman]

The rank system may go an overhaul soon

Bugman

[Orcslicer]

In what sense? Shifting the post levels around, or adding extra/ taking away cirtain ranks.

To be honest I believe extra ranks should be put in the 600 and 1500 post marks, to fill in the large gaps there at the moment...

[grantos]

Here's a suggestion:

Dwarf Warrior - 100 posts
Dwarf Hammerer - 250 posts
Dwarf Longbeard - 500 posts
Dwarf Lord - 1250 posts
Dwarf King - 2500 posts
White Dwarf - 5000 posts

[SCODY]

to get to 5000 posts someone either has to spam like crazy, so their post count is a lot greater than their actual useful input...

or someone has to be regularly posting for years... if someone has been posting for years, even if they don't have a huge post count - maybe give them a personal subname... cdron, Scabby, Ranulf, Nick H etc.

people who have been contributing quality stuff for years... to ME that's all a subname should recognise

[Dwarven miner]

I agree with SCODY, either rnaks should not exist or it should work something like Scody said.


EDIT: HOw about runesmith and engineer ranks?

[Ruben]

Is it possible to add a picture from your harddisk to your post?
Can't seem to make it work,txs

[Bugman]

[Renaissance Homer]

I cant see most of the pictures that are in the posts here, the [fullalbumimg:a8a97ad0ac]1378[/fullalbumimg:a8a97ad0ac] types (I just see that text), and the
http://forum.bugmansbrewery.com/image-asp956.html types (just redirects me to the Forum Home if I click them)

I can however see the pictures in for example this thread http://www.bugmansbrewery.com/forum/Ideas-...33-vp12920.html and several others.

Im using Firefox.
