I think our post count carried over from Ga Ga
Its deliberately confusing, Lil Bub Only the die-hards can cope with it, on a regs!
The trouble I think is, this is trying to be like facebook and trying to be a forum, but not quite managing to be either. Let me be clear that I am very grateful to Social Strata for giving us all somewhere to live, however there are some fundamental problems which exist within this software, problems which have existed from the start and have never been fixed. For example, I find it incredibly weird that in order to use LiveCloud on Internet Explorer (the most used browser in the world!!) you need to modify IE's settings before you are able to see images. I created a "how to" document so that users could update their IE settings and thereby be able to view this website as intended. This document was supposed to be a short term fix, however one year on it remains the only way of getting this website to work on IE.
Sorry but I always get very confused when people complain about how hard this forum is to use. I am no great techie,but to me it seems easy to navigate and was just wondering what aspects of the forum people have trouble with..ie what do you want to do that you can't?.

I only stick to the forum side of things and once you learn how to do stuff then it's ok.
But it's still not as user friendly as the format used on C4 or the one Social strata still use on the Arsenal forum for example.
But there are lots of advantages here too, like being able to post smilies and pics etc/

i just book marked the BB forum and press "submit reply" when I want to respond to a post. Its not really very difficult
So how do you use smileys?
Post pics?
Quote someone?
And are we allowed to use you tube vids?

When you click on "Post Reply" there is a icon on the toolbar. If you click on that you will see the smileys.
To quote someone, highlight the part you want to quote, click Reply and the quote will be in a box. Write your reply underneath the box.
You can post Youtube vids on here, and I don't know how to post pics.

Highlight the piece you wish to quote, then click on the "post reply box. The quote should appear in a little box. When you reply make sure your cursot is outside this little box.The smileys are in the reply box.
Click on the smiley, when the box opens, select your smiley, which will appear at the point where your cursor is.
You can post YouTubes yes. There was a thread somewhere which had instructions/help about posting pictures. Perhaps someone else could direct you to it?

Ok thanks for the help with quoting
But I don't have a smiley box.
Was it something I done? *cries*
you can also use smileys from external sites if you want to
have you not got a smiley face....between the tree and the film on the reply box toolbar?

I haven't even got a tree and film.
All I have is a watch this post thing and add attachments.
In fact I don't think I even have a toolbar!
What does your reply box look like? Which browser are you using?
Ahhh now I have a toolbar if I use IE but I dont get one if use Opera.
But If I use ie I can only use some smiley because the rest are X's.

IE is a narse on here....I use FF or Chrome and they work best

If I were you, I would download Firefox and use that instead of IE. Though sometimes the toolbox doesn't appear then but that's because of Gagajoyjoy server slowness rather than anything else.Here's a link to the Firefox download page.
Already have FF.
I usually use opera because its faster.
Never known a website to discriminate against web browsers.

I don't know which version of FF you have, but the current one v 3.6.6 is supposed to be a lot faster than older versions.Reference:

Spider, is your "how to" document still around? I`m using FF but I don`t like it. I`d rather get back to IE with your fix. Thanks xAdd Reply
