A Few V4 Features
Skins To access the different skins for the forum, go to profile, then click modify profile, then scroll down till you see a drop down menu entitled Select Skin which lists all the skins we have for the forum, press modify profile, and viola! You're done!
Karma There are two options under Karma in yours and other's mini-profile, bless and curse. Basically what this is, is a member rating system. When you bless someone you are praising them, thus adding one point to their Karma. When you curse them you are rating them poorly and it takes away one point from their Karma.
Sub-Boards Sub-boards are boards located inside of other boards, when you click the link to inside of one of the boards off the main page, you may see another board above the threads. This is a sub-board and it works the same way as the other boards.

Sign-up/Login Problems:
If you all are having any Password/login problems let me know!
If for some reason it is not letting you register please email me the user name you want and I will set you up an account with a temporary password.
If it let you register, but did not send you your password check your spam folder. This happens alot especially with aol users. If it is not there email me the name you registered with and I will set up a temporary password. You can then log on and change it.
If you did not recieve your activation code, check your spam folders in your email account, if it still isn't there, click here to be sent a new one.
The new version of proboards is not compatible with AOL. If you have an AOL account and didn't receive your activation code please check your spam bin or junk mail folders. It may have been sent there. If it hasn't been sent to your spam or junk mail then you will need to get a new e-mail account with hotmail, yahoo, gmail or some other service. It's free.
Sorry for the inconvience and thank you for your understanding

Zero Posters:
If you register for this forum, you are given two weeks to post. If in two weeks you are not heard from again, then your account will be deleted. You will not get a warning, as this is your warning. Should you come back after two weeks and discover that your account has been deleted, you are welcome to reregister as long as you understand that the same rules apply. We love new members, and we would love to have you on our board if you want to be here. Please don't create accounts you are not going to use. I would much rather have 5 good active members, than 50 non-active ones.
