FAQ for 7.0

Phrekwenci · 03-20-2006, 03:24 AM

I'll be writing the forum FAQ. I'll be taking most of the standards written from 6.0 and transferring them here. There'll be a need for some other things as well, like navigation. Personally, I was having a difficult time adapting from the usual phpBB to vB. A section in the FAQ should help this.

If there's anything you would like addressed in the FAQ, let me know.

Where's the stepfiles?

Is that something you like to be addressed in the FAQ, or do you really not know where they are?

New features should be discussed in the FAQs, as some could be kind of a "what the hell?" statused.

Especially the reputation, the new token system, bank, etc etc.

Here is a good faq on reputation:

On the note of "what the hell" features: it might be helpful to have an explanation for profile options like the entire "vbPlaza options" page. I'm not sure as to whether I should even touch those or not.

So where is this FAQ?

It would appear to be here.

A question that might need to be answered: content limits in terms of language. There any common taste barrier that should be enforced?

Specifically: I change my sig nightly to whatever line pops into my head, and I was wondering if there was some limit I shouldn't cross in what goes in there.

I think you should mention that simfile advertising is not allowed unless you restrict it to your isgnature.

I had a thread locked by a mod when I had read the rules and didn't see anything about simfile advertising

I've got one...
I checked every message board site and almost every one of them involves scamming, like they are selling Sidekick 3's for $150 usd. THIS IS A LIE!
ALL THEY ARE DOING IS STEALING YOUR MONEY!
Do you think we should add the scamming board in the Graveyard to embarass those scammers?

They're bots. They don't care.

Hello?

Or is there really going to be a new subforum exclusively for original simfile creations?

Phrekwenci · 12-08-2006, 01:48 AM

Simfile advertising falls under the category of advertising in general and is not allowed.

TheFlyingSquirrel · 12-08-2006, 03:37 PM

Could you at least clarify that in the FAQ?

***Keith*** · 12-08-2006, 04:59 PM

I did earlier today.
