FAQ Suggestions

[Dragoneer]

I'm about to do a full update to the Fur Affinity FAQ bringing it up today with current site usage. If you have any questions you feel should be added to the FAQ please let me know. I swear I had a thread about this before, but I couldn't find it in search.

Eh well!

Known Updates
Adding Section - Fender
Who is Fender?
What's Fender's Role on the Site
What's a "Ferrox"?

NOTE: I updated the broken links.

Bump

"Why a Ferrox?"

That would be a good one.

Edit:

More information about the trouble ticket system would be useful.

I would like to see certain esoteric features--like "scraps"--added to the FAQ. I'm new here, and upon submitting my works, there was the "add to scraps" option--but I have no idea what that does or what it is for.

Adding to scraps means that only the people who are watching you will see that addition to your page, the piece in question will be added to your "scraps" folder rather than you main one, so anyone looking for those pictures will have to click on that folder to see the pictures added there.

Aha...and here I was thinking that it was a folder for WIPs.

You could use it as such if you wanted to. It's up to you what you put in your scraps folder.

Another suggestion: It might benefit users to know what file size limitations are imposed on the different file types/categories for submissions. I just recently tried uploading an mp3 that's near 10MB, but it wouldn't take.

why is there no delte option?
like if i post something twice i can't delet it

 

[ArrowTibbs]

For submissions: Go to control panel -> submission management -> select the submission you would like to delete or edit.

How about this one, before making someone trial admin, check to see if they have a past history of harassing people regarding art work and such that might violate the AUP?

I thought that Fender was supposed to be the 'person' who made general announcements to the site about changes that would be occurring.
Kind of defeats the purpose of having him around to do that if, as it states in the 'Rules for asking me a question' section, that asking a controversial question will get it 'eaten'.
Didn't realize it'd simply be an RP character for the Staff.

That's the intended purpose, yes.
Guess Fender's got carried away

You've already bashed Dave in another thread today, there's no need to bring it to another unrelated thread as well. That's not even a question.

What can i say, Rednef is the complete opposite, isn't she?
And what's an opposite of a rarely appearing, serious and reserved Fender?

Existent?

Hmm, how 'bout a better way to find replies you YOUR post and/or forums?
Not the whole forum itself.
Maybe a message labeled FF for FA Forums. since F is for Favorites.

 

[PrettyKitty13]

Oh and if there is something like that (other than the e-mail notification) Then please lemme know

 

[Dragoneer]

*nodnods* Will work on adding those to the Wiki soon!

. I think so.

One question I have that I think would be important to new forum users is the following: "When should I make a new thread for a site suggestion rather than putting the suggestion in the official suggestion thread?"
