New Forum! Yaaayy

Salaam Layth,
Nadeem's comments were not about fixing the smileys as far as I can read them, they are more about adding smileys to the currently available ones. Since you have the most privileges in this forum, perhaps you can try clicking the link Nadeem gave above. And see if you can add more smileys. (That way, Tay would be much happier ;D)

Ahh I see more unsatisfied smilie customers. Indeed, these are different yet cuter in a strange sense. They are growing on me by the minute.

Peace Zen, Layth, All,
OK, so I got an email giving me the new address, which worked yesterday. Today it didn't work and I had to access the forum from the home page again. I take it the address is back to "forum" and no longer "forum2" in the URL? I just need to know which we're sticking with so I can update my bookmarks.
Also, what's the deal with the stars under the member names. Yesterday I had none, today I have one. Who do I have to take out to dinner to earn me another star?? I'll make it Peter Luger's Steakhouse in NYC if I can get like some cool looking shooting star or something.
Peace,
Tay -

I think we're sticking to the latest one, which is really the old one... anyway, I 'update' my bookmars (again) at home and the office.Also, what's the deal with the stars under the member names.

Peace,
TayMe!me!me!... I'm steak!insert drool emoticon here Actually couldn't help you out right now... yesterday I was a 'newbie' (wats up with that?). But I must say - the transition went much smoother than I thought it would! ;D (I had nothing to do with it) and we're progressing pretty well. So I'm sure it won't be long before you get atleast another star or a teddy bear or something... you know what they say about patience!
Peace twin bro
PS Steak or no, I do hope we meet some day, even if not in this plane of existenz. ) -
Hi there!
Adley, Tay and Zenje,
The more posts you make, the more stars you should have.
The default setting is
1 stars 0-49 posts
2 stars 50-99 posts
3 stars 100-249
4 stars 250-499
5 stars 500 and overAdmins can manage these values here http//www.free-minds.org/forum/index.php?action=membergroups;
But It's strange that all of us have only one star. Someone with admin access should click here
http//www.free-minds.org/forum/index.php?action=maintainAnd click on Find and repair any errors. and
Recount all forum totals and statistics.Maybe that will fix it. I don't know.
Nadeem.

Salaam Nadeem,
Thanks for the explanation bro. Hopefully Layth or Zenje can do something about it. Oh, do you know just which font types exactly that I can choose when writing posts?
Speaking of stars, we should be able to create ranks, do we not? I mean, 1 star is a Newbie, 2 star is a Regular, and so on. Maybe it will be fun to have ranks based on the number of posts we have. ;D

I second (or is that third?) the powers that be to change our stars to what they should be. After all, it took hard work and newbies shouldn't get all the rewards, especially when we see some posting like the devil's after them! It's not fair '(

Peace Zenje, Nadeem, Nadia, all,
Zenje, I was only joking about the star thingy, but the steak dinner offer still stands if you ever make it out here to the East Coast. Have you ever been to NYC??
Speaking of which, I think the time is right for a little convention/meeting. We need to gather the troops and see what kind of energy we can muster. I envision a hotel type thing, where we can all get together, see each other, babble, take pics and post 'em on the forum, maybe have a speaker or 2. What say you??
As Wakas said, if you build it, they will come.
Nadeem, thank for the data.
NAdia, you stated
especially when we see some posting like the devil's after them!
I almost fell out my chair laughing!
Peace,
Tay -
Salaam all,
I was wondering whether broken links in all previous posts (from the old forum) can be mended? Those links, right now, lead to nowhere. Is there anything we can do to fix it? Perhaps some members, like me, wish to re-read old threads and if they happen to find a link, they will be a lot happier if it really works. ;D

Hi!
Adley,
These are the fonts I can gather
This is verdana a b c d e f g h i j k l m n o p q r s t u v q x y z
This is Arial a b c d e f g h i j k l m n o p q r s t u v q x y z
This is Times new Roman a b c d e f g h i j k l m n o p q r s t u v q x y z
This is Impact a b c d e f g h i j k l m n o p q r s t u v q x y zWait a minute... Actually, you can use all the fonts your windows has installed -)
But, for other members to see the fonts, they must also have the font you're using.You can check what fonts you have installed by clicking star -> run -> C\WINDOWS\Fonts
All you have to do, is to click this button in the post formhttp//www.free-minds.org80/forum/Themes/default/images/bbc/face.gif
Then inside the brackets where it's says 'verdana', change it to whatever font name you like -)Speaking of stars, we should be able to create ranks, do we not?
Yes, admins can. Under member management in admin-panel, click "add".

Peace Tay, all
Heh it's true though! I would love to be part of the hotel experience...don't you guys have a convention of sorts without me! I want to be there and I want the steak with mashed potatoes on the side. I would of course settle for the pictures but not without much heartache.

Tried that... didn't work... atleast it didn't change anything. (
You know what?... I'll leave this stuff to Layth, before I mess up the
whole board or something. -\ -

Never been to the big apple... and I doubt I'll be venturing that way anytime soon. I dunno, I just figure it's not a place you want to drag a 3 and 6 year old around. For some reason I've never had the 'urge' to go to New York... not sure why that is, I haven't found something to draw me in there I guess. Having said that I still would like to visit all of northeast including MA and ME. The invite to CO stills stands as well. ;D
The convention thing sounds too good to actually happen, sadly enough. Don't mean to be a party pooper, but I think we're too few and far in between. That's why the only convention I see happening is online. But then again, if Wakas builds it, I will be there! ;D

If people on this thread can come up with suggestions, then I would be glad to use them

How about a Star Wars theme? ;D
1 star 0-99 posts (Speck/MidiChlorian?)
2 stars 100-299 posts (Padawan/Sith Apprentice)
3 stars 300-499 (Jedi? Sentinel)
4 stars 500-999 (Jedi? Knight)
5 stars 1000 and over (Jedi Master or Sith Lord?)Let the people choose their sides! Alternatively, I'm sure there are better suggestions at other sites
