Quick Questions & Answers / "Where do I post this?"

So I saw some members who had this:

Some time later, I was looking at the Donations and Supporter Benefits thread at it listed the supposed maximum tier at 5. I was just curious as too why and how some people have tier 6.

Tier 6 is something of a "secret tier"; you can receive it by donating a certain amount more than Tier 5 :)

Hi, me again, I was looking through my User Control Panel tab "Group Memberships"
I found that I could join the group Wi-Fi Beta Testers. I was wondering what this group is since I don't remember doing anything lol.

EDIT: Just to clarify, I'm not asking what a user/social group is. Also, if it helps, it says the group leader is Ausaudriel, though I'm little afraid to PM or VM an admin :P

Tier 6 can be achieved by donating at least $100. They also get bigger avatars than Tier 3-5.

It's a hidden tier, which is why it's slightly different to the other tiers.

I was looking at Who's Online and at the far back I saw something called a Google Adsense Spider, what is it? It was even viewing a thread so I know it's alive, I think. xD

It's a google bot that collects stuff for their advertisements.

It's just a bot from Google that browses for advertising purposes for the forum. It's not alive or controlled by anyone, it just browses the forum to see what kind of content exists here and then uses this to make the advertisements shown around the forum more relatable to the members based on what they post. :)

You do [/sound="the text you want to appear on the bar"]mp3 file link here.mp3[/sound]
Without the first slash...

For uploading MP3s, I suggest you try Dropbox or Kiwi6

 

[Gary0ak]

Why won't the mp3 file play when I'm in Incognito Mode on Google Chrome? (wanted to test to see if it works for other people including those logged out)

The file doesn't play for me either. The most likely reason is that the .mp3 file you're using is set to private. May I ask what site you're uploading it to?

Dropbox, and the public link wouldn't even play the file

How do you post a thread... *Blushing*

There'll be a "New Thread" button (or something along those lines) at the top of every forum and subforum. I'd screenshot it for you if I wasn't on my phone, but it's not too hard to find. Just look at the top of the forums. :]

 

[PeaceDarkAngel]

Thank you. It's nice to find nice people who help Very .... ... UnComputer friendly people like me. ^_^

I need help with my profile picture - I've tried uploading it from my computer, but it comes out really small (133/133 pixels). Is there a way I can enlarge it, or will it have to be like that?

You need to be a staff member or PC Supporter to have bigger profile pics.

The profile pic size increases the higher your Supporter tier is. For example, a Tier 5 Supporter has much larger profile pics than say, a Tier 3 Supporter. Staff get the profile pic size equal to Tier 5 Supporters regardless if they were a Supporter or not.

Is there no way to change your thread title or am i just not seeing it?

Only staff members can do that.

However, if you accidentally make an error with the title, you can request them to edit it for you.

Hmm wouldn't it be a less of a hassle if the thread maker could just maybe have an option to edit the title only once if there is an error?Just saying...
