How come this guy's username is in red?

A Username is red because he has broken the rules but the admins think he will learn to become a better poster. The person you are talking about is in the prison, a place where he can be as spammy as he wants and hopefully improve.

Hey I'm tryin to upload an image to my sig but it won't work. can somebody help me out here

 

[D-Man]

The picture must be hosted on an existing website on the internet. Then you must use vb code to link it in your signature.

This is just out of curiosity as I never expect it to be relevant to me. What determines if someone is put in prison? I see members that are future endeavored all the time, but rarely do I see a new prisoner. What determines if someone is banned or put in prison?

Idiots that don't follow rules are eventually banned. But posters that seem to be giving effort, barely stay within the rules, but are essentially shitty posters and given a chance to rehabilitate in the prison.

I have a question mates. On June 5th [Saturday] myself and a mate will be hosting a wrestling radio show called *censored due to advertising*

We'll be discussing everything from ROH to all 3 of WWE's shows, including a NXT review as well as a recap of TNA iMPACT!

And I wanted to know could I promote it by posting the link to it as well as details on the forums.

Its a wrestling radio show where we want the fans to get involved ny ringing in.

My question is, can I promote it on the forums and if so on which forums may I do so? Thanks

 

[D-Man]

Any advertising on these forums is strictly prohibited.

I have a quick question, that I didn't see the answer for in here or in the FAQs, I looked and searched, so if it's in here, I probably worded my search wrong.

Anyways, my question is about the PM system. I've recently noticed that I am only capable of sending a PM to 1 person at a time. Why is this?

Is there a certain post count that you have to reach to unlock more recipients, like there was for unlocking the usage of PMs?

Forgive me if I missed seeing this posted previously. Thanks in advance.

 

[HBK-aholic]

I believe this only changes if you move to a moderator position, as mods are capable of sending to more than one person.

Registered Members can PM only 1 member at a time. This is done to prevent Spam Advertising.

 

[The People's Peep]

How accurate is the search function? I feel like everytime I use it, it just gives me the newest posts regardless of the word I searched by.

 

[Lee]

Very accurate, if you search by thread it will show every thread that the word is mentioned in, I always just search for specific post.

Hey was just wondering whether there will be an LD for the FIFA World Cup and if so will there be a different one for each match or just one for the whole tournament?
Cheers

Hiya. Anyone can make threads in the LD forum, so if you're watching a match or are going to watch it, feel free to make an LD if there isn't one already.

 

[LUFC HBK]

Ahk cool. The New Zealand vs Paraguay LD will be off the charts

Any rules/suggestions against religious debates? I've seen one in my time here, but it was rather quiet and not really a debate – just a general question posed asking folks what their affiliations were.

I checked the forum rules and didn't see anything about it, so I figured it's best to ask first...

No subject on this site is taboo, as long as the rules are followed and the debate takes place in the proper section with precaution taken by the debaters as to where the debate should be placed.

Perfect – thanks, D.

It'd be a pretty standard discussion over the validity of the Bible and whether or not an invalidated Bible can be accepted as the foundation for a faith, so I was thinking Cigar Lounge?

 

[D-Man]

That should be a fine place for it, as long as it won't resort to flaming or things that would blatantly offend any of the posters. Keep it as civilized as possible, in accordance with the exceptional standards of the Cigar Lounge discussions.

 

[It's Damn Real!]

That's not my intention at all – the idea is to have a civilized discussion regarding various aspects of faith, not to overtly insult anyone of that faith (though I can't guarantee they won't still be offended). That's why I just wanted to make sure that kind of topic was acceptable.

 

[D-Man]

You should be just fine, IDR.

So I heard rep used to be worth alot more awhile back, what was the ratio to what it's worth now, and when was it changed?

Also I had a spamming warning that finally expired today but is still on my user cp, will that go away or is there anyway to hide it so I don't have to look at it?

Sly can best answer this, but I'm sure he'll reply with something along the lines of "Why does it matter if it isn't in place anymore and isn't going back to the way it used to be?" Take that for what it's worth.

Also I had a spamming warning that finally expired today but is still on my user cp, will that go away or is there anyway to hide it so I don't have to look at it?

No, it will always be there, unless it was a reversed infraction. Then, you could request for it to be removed in it's proper thread.

It was changed 6-8 months ago I believe. There's probably a thread about it in the Bar Room Archives. As far as what it used to be worth, I don't remember. I think for every 100 rep points someone had, you gained 1 in rep power, or something ridiculous like that. Some posters could rep a brand new poster and give him light green rep.

Also I had a spamming warning that finally expired today but is still on my user cp, will that go away or is there anyway to hide it so I don't have to look at it?

You can click the little red arrows button at the top right of the User Infraction box. But, other than that, no there's no way to get rid of it.
