Comments on Forum
I admit I didn't spend time reading the instructions, FAQs, etc. but I have a couple of comments.
In the Use and Help section, I didn't see any way to simply start a new thread, there was only a Quote button. Donations: how about an address (P.O. box) so people can send checks? I realize this might be a nuisance for you, but some are uncomfortable with credit cards online. Somewhere there was a place for contacting the forum. When I clicked that item, I was taken into an Account Wizard. It was unclear whether this was a TAPCIS forum thing, or a general wizard or something connected with my ISP. I doubt that it was for my ISP since I have already set up Email there. I checked the box to allow other members to send me Email. However, there is nothing about the privacy of my Email address. Some places on the Web have options for this such as allowing members to send Email without revealing my Email address and/or allowing the Email address to be seen in public. Guerri Quote:

Thanks, Guerri! (I think I know what I'll be doing with much of my long holiday weekend...)

------ I guess I want to start a new thread. How do I do this?
Gil, Is your question about how to start a new thread? or about how to quote another message in a new thread? There is a "new thread" button. It above the blue bar. Above the blue bar that runs across the top of the list of threads in a forum. On this web site what we used to call sections are now called forums or sub-forums or child-forums, etc. It took me a while to find the new thread button too. Maybe there's a way to start a new thread right while one is reading messages within a thread, *without* hitting the "back" icon on the browser, but I dont' know it. I "grew up" with plain text and am not used to the whiz bang stuff. So I just use plain old copy and paste for quote backs, etc. David H. |
