Board Rules and Frequently Asked Questions

Unread post by ATPTourFan »

Note: This document will be updated as necessary. Feel free to post suggestions or your own questions that you wanted answered at the end of this thread.

RULES OF THE BOARD

1) No excessive swearing. A few naughty words are fine, since I'm sure we've all heard worse at every annual URI-PC game. However, this board is not the place to test out your personal additions to George Carlin's list.

2) Similar to the previous rule, don't swear or insult other users. It's okay to say, "You know, I don't really agree with your opinion because of X, Y and Z." It's NOT okay to say, "I don't agree with you because you're an F'ing F-Face."

3) Don't troll. For the uninitiated, trolling is posting something just to get a rise out of another user. Some light ribbing is to be expected, but don't hound the same user in thread after thread.

4) When posting images, the rating of the board should be considered between PG and R. Please don't post anything obviously offensive or "Not Safe for Work".

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Question: How do I change the display time for the board topics?
You want to check out the User Control Panel link at the top of this page and continue on to Profile, or just click here. If you want to change the time, scroll to the bottom and switch where it says My Timezone. If you're on the East Coast, you want GMT -5. You should also set Daylight Savings Time if appropriate, just below timezone.

Question: How do I get a picture next to my name?
To put a picture next to your name, first, find an appropriate picture online. You might use Wikipedia or Google Images, for example. This part is a little tricky - It needs to be a maximum of 140 by 140 pixels and no larger than 75KB. The easiest solution is to save the picture to your hard drive, then 1) re-size it using Photoshop or your own image edit or 2) do it with this online photo editor.

Question: What are these player names under my user name?!
They're the "rankings" based on how many posts you have.

Was just looking at the rankings, and I think it'd be cool to add a few of the recent players in there. Hassan, TJ, EC, Jared?

I think Jared should be more up there between Garrick and Cuttino. Worth way more than a 193 ranking.

First off no way should Tyson be above Silk. Silk is the leading scorer in URI history and he didn't have the three pointer for the first three years here. Terrell is similar to Cuttino and Tommy. EC and Hassan are a step below with the Odom and Kenny Green gorup.
