Forum Rules

[Mike Haile]

Where can I find the forum rules? I can't remember which forums require minimum number of postings before posting.

Where can I find the forum rules? I can't remember which forums require minimum number of postings before posting.

Hmm... I didn't find that information anywhere obvious in the FAQs or as a sticky on the affected boards. I think it's just the "theology" and "current event" forums that are restricted, but I may be wrong. Hopefully, someone can enlighten us and point out where that information can be found.

Welcome to NazNet, by the way.

During the registration process, there's an item that states:

Remember, if you are registering to post on the Current Events or Theology forums newly registered users must be members for at least 10 days and do at least 10 posts prior to having posting privileges to those forums.

Then, when a person registers they receive an email. One of the items in that email is:

Please remember that newly registered users must be members for at least 10 days and do at least 10 posts prior to having posting privileges on the Current Events or Theology forums.

It's also in a sticky at the top of the CE forum, but isn't in the Theology forum.

Still, I understand that in their excitement at joining NazNet (who wouldn't be excited!) that some may overlook both of those statements so I've now added the same information to the FAQ.

Sorry for the confusion.

Also, can I assume that the "thanks button" will show up when I have met that criteria?

Mike, I think that's right. Once you "make it" and have earned exalted full registration status, let me know!

The "thanks" button has never shown up on mine either. Length of time seems to have had nothing to do with it.

Maybe you still haven't posted enough, Edith. I have a request for you. I wanted to show someone the photo you posted pre-crash of a sculpture at SNU. When I did a google search several months ago, your no-longer existing NazNet post was the only hit with a photo from the google archives and, of course, the link didn't work.

Could you post the photo again sometime? (Maybe that would be the tipping point for the "thanks" button for you.)

Marsha, I don't know if you were referencing the life size sculpture of the professor sitting on a bench or the one of the soldier kneeling in prayer. Either way, this says that I am not allowed to upload files. Frustrating!

That seems unrelated to NazNet settings. You're already a regular member, you can't improve on that when it comes to posting privileges.

I was referring to the professor. I don't think I've seen the soldier.

Hans, how is a "senior member" (my status) officially different from a "regular member" (Edith's status)? The fact that I and other senior members can use the "thanks" button and upload pictures and she cannot seems to indicate a difference in privileges, but I don't know what triggers the status upgrade. Whatever it is, Edith would have been a "senior" member before the crash. Is there a way to upgrade her status? Does anyone know what triggers an automatic upgrade?

In going through the membership list, it appears that one becomes a "Senior Member" when they reach 100 posts.
I don't know if that has anything to do with the thanks or image posting or not.
Just a thought.

Yes, that's all it is. We can set up a whole series of titles based on posts, reputation, etc. That doesn't have any bearing on privileges. I know people tend to say "NazNet won't let me" but unless more than one person is having the problem is likely on their side - NazNet isn't blocking them from doing anything. If I could help I would but it's pretty much out of my league to tell people what setting they have wrong. Sometimes when I have something going on that no one else is reporting I try a different web browser. If it works with a different browser I know that there's a setting on my computer that needs to be adjusted.

Marsha

Oh, it looks like you won't get the professor (or the soldier) because it still says that I'm not allowed to add files. Hmmm, Marsha, I'm not going to do 100 posts just to post a picture or two.

[Mike Haile]

Thanks for the info Scott; don't know how I missed it.

[G R 'Scott' Cundiff]

Thanks for the info Scott; don't know how I missed it.

HA - Like I said, you were just overwhelmed with the possibility of getting on NazNet!

Glad to help. (And thanks to Marsha for pitching in too)

[Mike Haile]

Thanks button showed up today and I did not change any settings or browsers.........

Interesting! I just logged back in and mine was there, too. First time ever since the BigC. Also, I didn't change any settings or browsers either. Hmmm.....now I'll have to give Scott a "thanks."
