it's not ****e, it just takes a bit of getting used to. You'll find a lot hang around general chat if you're bored. The tags are supposed to be to help others to find specific articles, but the big overgrown children on here use them to anonymously abuse eachother. Welcome to the site.
Tina2010 Im sure you are right and I will get used to it with time Not really had the time to explore the site as yet coz Im quite busy today but might have a wee look later once home. Cheers for the welcome
You're welcome. It is actually ok, but it's like everything else, takes time to feel like home. There's some decent football sections but most of the funny stuff happens on general chat. It's barely moderated also, which is a big plus. Watch out for the links though, click on them at your peril, as you mate's already found out. I've been here a while and I still do it without thinking though.
Yeah I will watch out, I have done it a couple of times on 606 and was scared ****less that I woudl get scared Im not liking that there isnt a profile on here like 606 saying where you have posted, etc. What team do you support yourself?
If you click on your name, it gives you options. Click on your profile and there's a function to track your posts. The simplest thing is to bookmark whichever part of the site (either here or general chat) and it should show up new posts on articles you've read and posted on whenever you open the link. I'm an Alloa fan. There's only one Paul Hartley
If you make a mistake in your post, there's an option at the bottom of it to edit. Anything else you're not sure about, come on general chat and they'll help you out, after ripping the piss a bit. They're not a bad bunch. I find the best thing to do on a new forum is to play away with the buttons, kind of like a new phone, you really won't do much damage
have a look round the after work section when your in the house - some of the links posted are hilarious. im leaving here about half 3 to go home and get changed...
Some of the smileys are activated in the same way as 606 was, like < laugh > and < doh >, or click the 'go advanced' button at the bottom of the wee box you type into and voila!
On the SPL ones. I just posted nonsense though and got told to go do the dishes and pish like that. Riveting stuff. Try general chat as most of the Scottish posters are on there.
