How to use Bartertown - info for a sticky.

[MagickalMemories]

Numerous times over the years, people have asked for stickies on how to use Bartertown.
Most specifically, they want to know details about the phpbb system.

So, here it is... a thread where you can ask your questions and/or post your answers.

Want to know how to create a new PM storage folder in your Inbox?
Just discovered what a little icon means?
Something else?

Post your question/answer/discovery here.

After a while, we'll take everything and create a Sticky out of it.

Please, note that this is a "How to use the forum" or "Where to I list/post/find 'X'" thread. This is NOT a thread for Bartertown Rules or trade related questions (shipping first, etc) with the EXCEPTION of "Where do I list my stuff" questions.

ALL OFF TOPIC POSTS WILL BE NUKED WITH EXTREME PREJUDICE.
(I'd have made that blink, if I could!)

I edited the above post for clarity.
If posting links to topics, please state in your PM what you are posting the link about (see red text above)
Sorry. Should've made that clearer.

And clarifying unabashed butt kissing in red...is that the exception or the rule also

[MagickalMemories]

Yes.

I've made a discovery, although I am ashamed to admit it for as long as I've been here; however, in the spirit of helping the newb - or the more experienced user not look like a total tool (like I am now) here it is....

When browsing the forums and posts, down at the bottom is this nifty thing that lets you jump to another forum!!

Yes... I would go into "misc - futuristic" - browse - then back all the way out - and then scroll down to "misc - fantasy." Like a child with a new toy, I just can't wait to get deep into a thread and clicky that drop down menu to the forum I want!
