Why Registration ? |
|
Registration may be required if you plan to post new topics or reply to existing topics (depending on the particular subject you are using). Registration is free, and you are not required to post your real name. You are required to post your actual email address, however. |
|
Moderators |
|
Moderators control individual subject. They can edit, delete, or prune any posts in their subject. If you have a question about a particular subject, you should direct it to your subject moderator. |
|
Profile |
|
You may easily view any info stored in your registration profile, using the "profile" link located near the top of each page. Simply identify yourself by typing your username and password and all of your profile information will appear on screen. You cannot change any items, This facility is not available now .Soon we will provide such facility on our message board system. |
|
Editing Your Posts |
|
You may edit or delete your own posts at any time. Just go to the topic where the post to be edited is located and you will see an edit icon on the line that begins "posted on..." Click on this icon to edit or delete the post. No one else can edit your post, except for the subject moderator or the bulletin board administrator. A note is generated at the bottom of each post that is edited so that every one knows when a post has been edited. Note that if your post was the start of a new topic, deleting your post will result in the removal of the entire topic (all replies after your topic will also be deleted). |
|
Adding Comments |
|
You may use a comment (commonly used in email messages) on your posts. This is a new feature, so if you registered previously, you may not have been queried about storing a signature. If you click on the profile link at the top of most message board pages, you will be able to edit your profile, including your standard comment. Once you have a comment stored, you can choose to include it any post you make by checking the "include comment" box when you create your post. This message board's administrator may elect to turn the signature feature off at any time, however. If that is the case, the "include comment" option will not appear when you post a note, even if you have stored a comment. You cannot also change your comment |
|
Attaching Files |
|
For security reasons, you may not attach files to any posts. You may cut and paste text into your post |
|
Searching For Specific Posts |

Lost User Name and/or Password |

Retrieving your username and password is simple, assuming that email features are turned on for this bulletin board. All of the pages that require you to identify yourself with your username and password carry a "lost password" link that you can use to have your username and password emailed instantly to your email address of record. |
