TVgasm How To's

[TinkerbellAPixie]

This is where you can find the tips and tricks on how to do the things we do on the forums.

Since we have so many new friends - I thought this might come in handy.

If there is something you would like to learn how to do - feel free to PM one of the Moderators and we will add a "How To" to this thread.

And if you are wondering who to send your questions to? Just pm Jampony, PekmBoyd or TinkerbellAPixie (that's me).

Say there is a user who's posts are just not your cup of tea. Did you know you can ignore them?

1. Simply click on the name of the user that you want to ignore.

2. This will take you to their profile

3. There is a navy blue line with yellow actions, click on Add User Name to Ignore List

Now you will no longer be troubled with seeing the posts you did not want to see.

You wrote your post and you hit Submit Reply and you realize there's a typo or you want to add something... well fret not. You can edit it.

Just click on Edit and you will be returned to the Advanced Post screen. You can now edit your post.

At the bottom of the post there is a line where you can enter your reason for the Edit. People get very creative in that little line. ;)
