gdog243 0 Posted June 4, 2003 Is there any way to skip the intro "Welcome to Starfleet Headquarters" bit when you first enter the site. Its nice and all, but it can get kind of annoying, espessically when one is listening to music on the speakers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Xeroc 0 Posted June 4, 2003 Is there any way to skip the intro "Welcome to Starfleet Headquarters" bit when you first enter the site. Its nice and all, but it can get kind of annoying, espessically when one is listening to music on the speakers. Two things you can do: - Mute your speakers so you don't hear the music - When you are viewing the Index page - the one with the Announcment shown - not the boards - make a bookmark to that page and that will skip the Intro.

Xeroc 0 Posted June 5, 2003 Thanks Xeroc. What does constitute as a FAQ topic in this forum? This Topic is "YOUR FAQ QUESTIONS", so it seems only logical that questions would be asked here. A whole new topic would be a new section to the FAQ database. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gdog243 0 Posted June 11, 2003 I read something on trekbbs.com that I found kind of disturbing in regards to this site and I want to know if it was true. Evedently, someone was banned for having an opinion saying that he/she didn't watch startrek anymore because of some reason. Is this true and if it is, why was this person banned. Its not like there is a rule for ban on opinion...or is there? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Its not like there is a rule for ban on opinion...or is there? Wow! B) That is a pretty nasty rumor! So far, no one has been banned from this site. And that is a totally ridiculous reason!!! Banning someone because of their opinion is totally out of the question! The only reason someone would be banned would be because they were a big disturbance, were spamming, or had blantantly violated a basic rule. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
master_q 0 Posted June 11, 2003 Like they say most rumors are untrue. I would not place too much stock into them if I were you. For this specific rumor I can say off bat that it is false. Master Q StarTrek_Master_Q@yahoo.com Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Goose 0 Posted June 27, 2003 Stardate:213485.9 I was wondering what are the pips that appear at the bottom of the members info mean??Like the ones that show the rank of Lt. under Alterego's. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Xeroc 0 Posted June 27, 2003 Those are the Trivia Ranks - go to the Trivia Board or ask Master_Q to find out the specifics. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Goose 0 Posted July 1, 2003 Stardate:213496.9 Another question, what do the buttons ibfc and s in the posting features do? I tried to test them and nothing happened when I pressed them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Xeroc 0 Posted July 1, 2003 Stardate:213496.9 Another question, what do the buttons ibfc and s in the posting features do? I tried to test them and nothing happened when I pressed them. The ibfc button is suppossed to allow you to embed real video. (this example doesn't actuallly play) [ALIGN=center] [ibfc]Test Video[/ibfc] The S button should make strikethough text like this: strikethrough text [s]strikethrough text[/s] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VaBeachGuy 12 Posted July 1, 2003 Stardate:213496.9 Another question, what do the buttons ibfc and s in the posting features do? I tried to test them and nothing happened when I pressed them. The IFBC button will likely be removed soon. I can't get the function to work properly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mj 7 Posted August 20, 2003 Is there a way to remove a post? I accidentally posted similar comments in a thread in the TOS forum. I have the problem of repeating myself in real life, also. Neither is intentional. Can the second comment be removed? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SuperNova 0 Posted August 23, 2003 This is a signature question. How do you make a link out of a picture? What's the code? Thanks... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Takara_Soong 4 Posted August 23, 2003 This is a signature question. How do you make a link out of a picture? What's the code? Thanks... To have an image in your signature the picture has to be on the internet. You have to manually type the code which is: [IMG=URL address of picture] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Captain Bolivar 0 Posted August 23, 2003 As for as I know, all you can do is edit the post and just remove what you said. If it's really necessary I'm sure you could contact a moderator about it, then they could have it removed for you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VaBeachGuy 12 Posted September 11, 2003 This is a signature question. How do you make a link out of a picture? What's the code? Thanks...

mj 7 Posted September 17, 2003 I read a thread talking about doing personal logs, and now there is a personal log forum. So are these supposed to be like keeping journals? How do you use them? Is it just like any forum where you read the thread and make comments? I have not read anything in there because I do not know if it is supposed to be private.

Captain Bolivar 0 Posted November 16, 2003 (edited) To answer your question mjham. The personal logs are like journals. You create a topic for your own personal logs and just "add reply" when you wish to add a new log. They are meant to be viewed by other members, but you should not reply to someone else's personal log, nor should they reply to yours. The only time you can reply to someones personal log is if they say you can. I hope that helps! Edited November 16, 2003 by Captain Bolivar Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
A l t e r E g o 9 Posted November 17, 2003 How do I get Spoilers in my signature? :blink: Same as you would to use the spoiler code in posts or, imo, the easiest way is to manually type the spoiler codes in front and back of the text or image you want to be in the spoiler box like this: For text: [spoiler]text you want to be hidden in spoiler box[/spoiler] Click for Spoiler: text you want to be hidden in spoiler box For images: [spoiler][img=http://www.startrekfans.net/style_images/STARTREK-801/nav.gif][/spoiler] Click for Spoiler: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
