Ask the staff!

This is supposed to be a place to ask the admins about technical stuff and yeah... (Admins, please answer if someone asks. )

I'll start by asking the question:
Why is there a "Randomness Starter 2" on the user group thingy now? I probably could find out myself, but I'm lazy.

(BTW, I know that PMing admins works as well. I think this is more handy though...)

That's an attempt to get around a huge glitch we're having. Sadly, I don't believe its working.

What glitch do you have?

It won't color the usernames of those in the group. Its supposed to... And even looking at the help forum, we're doing exactly what they tell us to do... :/

Ah... This. I think now it's not working for TWO people :/

It's working now.

Ya, i fixed the rank thing.

Nice topic

Hey Wert, please dont say stuff like Nice topic unless you have other stuff in your post that adds to the topic. Its not a huge deal, but it is slightly annoying.

So sorry.

Its fine man, just please be a bit more careful.

Can ranks be given out free? Or do u have to pass requirements?
I say so because LED and me are the only waffle eeters, and we are also top 2 regular posters. (except admins)

Ranks are earned only. Once you get enough posts, you'll automatically be added to the group.

That answer your question?

Yes! What are differences between mods & admins?

Mods can just use the moderator tools. (Lock and move topics, ban people, etc) Admins can access the Admin Control Panel, which allows us to change the forum around.

And add stuff like forums, right?

Ya, only admins can do that.

Thanks.

Can I be evil donut master?

Only if you pay the official fried treats tax, and if you are seen as worthy.
The tax was placed in 2006 to regulate the overflow of fried treats such as, but not limited to:
Donuts
Fries/Chips
French Toast
Fried Mars Bars
Fried Twinkies

In order for the tax to applied and your title bestowed you must first sign the application form, to acquire such a form please contact your nearest member of staff.

If you are applying for the title under the grounds of inheritance you may tick the box saying: "Was your father a Evil Donut Master?" and the tax will be halved, you must provide proof of father's title or you will not receive the tax reduction.

Due to the traditional nature of the title if your mother was a Evil Donut Peer you will not be applicable for the title unless earned, this law is due to change by 2016.

Uhhh.... uhhh.... uhhh... I don't know how to respond to that.

Um, I was wondering if there is something that could be done about the ads at the top of the screen and on profile pages, some of the ads are utterly repulsing and inappropriate. And I was wondering if anything can be done to block the ads or not?

Its a forumotion thing, the reason why some are not matching the content on the forum is because they aren't properly filtered ads, forumotion just allow any ad that google has to be placed there. Really the best thing to do is to download Adblock for Firefox/chrome and it does the job really well, even blocks all the annoying youtube ads!

Ah, ok. I take it adblock doesn't work for interenet explorer?

Thanks Roddy!

If you can, get a selective adblocker. That way you can disable it on places like YT. I know, it sounds crazy, but I would do that (if I had an adblocker), because people make money from ads on YT, and some people need it to support their living. Or you can just get a general adblocker But just my opinion on that.
