How do I get started?

Firstly, you need to become a member of the site, unfortunately due to legal reasons we do not allow anonymous posting on this site. But don’t worry! We have kept the amount of details required to its barest minimum for your convenience (so you don’t have to wade through a massive amount of forms).

Once you have received your sign up confirmation email then you can get cracking straight away.

Simply choose the section that you want to add a post to and then press the post button, write your message and then press post again, couldn’t be simpler.

How can I keep track of posts on the forum?

Well, one way would be to keep checking the forum you posted to but that would become tedious very quickly.

A better solution to this is to click on the options button within the forum that you want to track then set the ‘send email’ option to whenever new posts are posted within this forum.

How can I keep track of replies specifically to my posts?

Go to your profile and scroll down to the bottom where it says ‘email options’. Set the ‘Enable Email Notifications of replies to your posts’ to yes and then you will be notified via email when people respond to your messages.

Can I add images to my posts?

Yes, with one restriction... due to volume we need to limit the filesize of the images to less than 90k. To add an image to you click on the 'Browse' button next to the 'File attachment' text, find the image on your machine, select it and then press 'open'.
