[color=#000000]New member and trying to learn the forum details. Have participated in forums before, so some of this is familiar but lots of other questions as I try to get the hang of it here. I have printed off and read the Forum Help Guidelines but do not find the answers to my questions in there. Is there a more in depth source of info. pertaining to the forum itself? Just for starters:
1. WHY is my text in this new thread red when I selected black?
2. Posts that indicate they have three, four replies, etc but when I click on the post to read it, there are no replies shown. ???
3. WHY are some of the icons to the left of the Topics GREEN and some of them are BLUE? All replies and help will be appreciated.
This will be my first post and I guess it is a text to see if I have created and submitted it correctly. Thanks for your time!
Have to agree that the site is not real user friendly or maybe it is just my newbie learning curve right now. Have had a real hard time logging in tonight; it kept telling me my ID or password was incorrect. Well, it wasn’t and I finally did get logged in. After doing the first Quick Reply and wondering WHY it was in a red bordered box with red text, after I sent the reply, when it showed up on the Forum, it WAS black. So “I think” I have that straight now. Still do not get what the difference in the grey and green icons are, nor the blue question marks (?) in a circle or the red exclamation marks (!) in a circle, but guess eventually I will see some rhyme or reason for it all. Sure wish Kovels would put a Legend on the Home Page for all the various icons; would be very helpful! Thanks for the info. on the antique-shop site; will definitely go there too.
Yes, I am located in SE Texas about 90 miles east of Houston. Happy to see other TEXAN members on board. Maybe with you in the NE area, our moderator in the DFW area and me in the SE area, we can pull a convention of our own one day. Go TEXANS!!! GO COWBOYS too! Now if there are any other live bodies out there, maybe we will get a ripple from those so NOT
TEXAN or COWBOY fans! 🙂 Blessings to all!
