Innskráningar og Skráningar vandamál

Hvers vegna get ég ekki skráð mig inn?
Það eru ýmsar ástæður ef það gerist. Fyrst, athugaðu hvort notendanafn eða lykilorð sé rétt. Ef þau eru það, hafðu samband við eiganda spjallborðsins til að athuga hvort þú sért vannaður. Það er líka möguleiki að bilun sé í spjallborðinu sem veldur því og er á ábyrgð vefstjóra að laga það.

Afhverju þarf ég að skrá mig?
Það þarf ekki alltaf, vefstjóri spjallborðsins ræður því hvort það þurfi til að getað sent inn skilaboð. Hinsvegar þá gefur skráning þér aðgang að ýmislegum góðum hlutum sem gestir hafa ekki, eins og egin smámynd, einkaskilaboð, senda tölvupóst á ákveðna notendur, skrá sig í notendahóp ofl. Það tekur aðeins augnablik að skrá sig svo það er mælt með því.

Afhverju skráist ég út sjálfkrafa?
Ef þú hakar ekki í Skrá mig inn sjálfkrafa kassann þegar þú skráir þig inn, þá skráir borðið þig út eftir ákveðinn tíma. Þetta kemur í veg fyrir misnotkun á aðgangi þínum af eitthverjum öðrum. Til að tolla innskráð/ur hakaðu einfaldlega í kassann þegar þú skráir þig inn. Við mælum þó með því að gera það ekki ef þú ert í almennings tölvu, t.d. á bókasafni, netkaffi, skóla eða álíka. Ef þú sérð ekki þennann möguleika þá hefur vefstjóri bannað hann.

Ég gleymdi lykilorðinu mínu!
Ekki missa þig! Ekki er hægt að finna glatað lykilorð, en það er auðvelt að endurstilla það. Farðu á innskráningarsíðu og smelltu á Ég gleymdi lykilorði mínu. Fylgdu leiðbeiningunum og þú ættir að komast aftur inn eftir enga stund.
Fara efst

Ég skráði mig en kemst ekki inn!
Fyrst, athugaðu notendanafn og lykilorð. Ef þau eru rétt, þá getur eitt eða annað hafa gerst.
Fara efst

Ég skráði mig eitthvertíma en get ekki skráð mig inn núna!
Reyndu að finna tölvupóstinn sem þú fékkst þegar þú skráðir þig, passaðu að nota rétt notendanafn og lykilorð og reyndu aftur. Það er samt möguleiki að vefstjóri eða stjórnandi hafi eytt aðgangi þínum af eitthverri ástæðu. Einnig fjarlægja sum spjallborð óvirka notendur til að minnka stærð gagnagrunnar. Ef það gerðist, prufaðu að skrá þig aftur og vera svolítið virkari.

Hvað er COPPA?
COPPA, eða "Child Online Privacy and Protection Act" frá 1998 er ekkert notað á Íslandi og þau lög gilda ekki á Íslandi. Ef þú sérð COPPA eitthverstaðar þá er spjallborðið vitlaust stillt af stjórnanda eða staðsett í Bandaríkjunum þar sem COPPA verður að vera virkt.
Fara efst

Hvers vegna get ég ekki skráð mig ?
Það er mögulegt að vefstjórinn hafi bannað IP-Tölu þína eða lokað á notendanafnið sem þú valdir. Vefstjóri gæti einnig hafa lokað á allar skráningar. Hafðu samband við vefstjóra fyrir aðstoð.

Hvað gerir “Eyða vafrarakökum”?
“Eyða vafrarakökum” fjarlægir allar kökur sem spjallborðið hefur notað til að halda þér innskráðum. Þær innihalda einnig upplýsingar um hvaða pósta þú hefur lesið ef það var virkjað af vefstjóra. Ef þú ert að lenda í vandræðum með að skrá þig inn þá getur það haft góð áhrif.

Tungumálið mitt er ekki í listanum!
Annaðhvort hefur vefstjóri ekki sett upp tungumálið þitt eða enginn hefur þýtt þetta spjallborð í þitt tungumál. Prufaðu að byðja vefstjóra ef þeir geta útvegað tungumálapakka fyrir þitt tungumál. Ef tungumálapakkinn er ekki til þá getur hver sem er þýtt spjallborðið. Meiri upplýsingar um að þýða er að finna á phpbb.com

How do I show an image below my username?
There are two images that may appear below a username when viewing posts. Depending on the used style, the first may be an image associated with your rank, generally in the form of stars, blocks or dots, indicating how many posts you have made or your status on the board. The second, usually a larger image, is known as an avatar and is generally unique or personal to each user. It is up to the board administrator to enable avatars and to choose the way in which avatars can be made available. If you are unable to use avatars, contact a board administrator and ask them for their reasons.
Fara efst

What is my rank and how do I change it?
Ranks, which appear below your username, indicate the number of posts you have made or identify certain users, e.g. moderators and administrators. In general, you cannot directly change the wording of any board ranks as they are set by the board administrator. Please do not abuse the board by posting unnecessarily just to increase your rank. Most boards will not tolerate this and the moderator or administrator will simply lower your post count.
Fara efst

When I click the e-mail link for a user it asks me to login?
Only registered users can send e-mail to other users via the built-in e-mail form, and only if the administrator has enabled this feature. This is to prevent malicious use of the e-mail system by anonymous users.

Posting Issues

How do I post a topic in a forum?

If someone has already replied to the post, you will find a small piece of text output below the post when you return to the topic which lists the number of times you edited it along with the date and time. This will only appear if someone has made a reply; it will not appear if a moderator or administrator edited the post, though they may leave a note as to why they’ve edited the post at their own digression. Please note that normal users cannot delete a post once someone has replied.
Fara efst

How do I add a signature to my post?
To add a signature to a post you must first create one via your User Control Panel. Once created, you can check the Attach a signature box on the posting form to add your signature.

How do I create a poll?
When posting a new topic or editing the first post of a topic, click the “Poll creation” tab below the main posting form; if you cannot see this, you do not have appropriate permissions to create polls. Enter a title and at least two options in the appropriate fields, making sure each option is on a separate line in the textarea. You can also set the number of options users may select during voting under “Options per user”, a time limit in days for the poll (0 for infinite duration) and lastly the option to allow users to amend their votes.

Why can’t I add more poll options?
The limit for poll options is set by the board administrator. If you feel you need to add more options to your poll then the allowed amount, contact the board administrator.
Fara efst

How do I edit or delete a poll?
As with posts, polls can only be edited by the original poster, a moderator or an administrator. To edit a poll, click to edit the first post in the topic; this always has the poll associated with it. If no one has cast a vote, users can delete the poll or edit any poll option. However, if members have already placed votes, only moderators or administrators can edit or delete it. This prevents the poll’s options from being changed mid-way through a poll.

Why did I receive a warning?
Each board administrator has their own set of rules for their site. If you have broken a rule, you may be issued a warning.

How do I bump my topic?
By clicking the “Bump topic” link when you are viewing it, you can “bump” the topic to the top of the forum on the first page.

Formatting and Topic Types

What is BBCode?
BBCode is a special implementation of HTML, offering great formatting control on particular objects in a post. The use of BBCode is granted by the administrator, but it can also be disabled on a per post basis from the posting form. BBCode itself is similar in style to HTML, but tags are enclosed in square brackets [ and ] rather than < and >. For more information on BBCode see the guide which can be accessed from the posting page.
Fara efst

Can I use HTML?
No. It is not possible to post HTML on this board and have it rendered as HTML. Most formatting which can be carried out using HTML can be applied using BBCode instead.
Fara efst

What are Smilies?
Smilies, or Emoticons, are small images which can be used to express a feeling using a short code, e.g. :) denotes happy, while :( denotes sad. The full list of emoticons can be seen in the posting form. Try not to overuse smilies, however, as they can quickly render a post unreadable and a moderator may edit them out or remove the post altogether. The board administrator may also have set a limit to the number of smilies you may use within a post.
Fara efst

Can I post images?
Yes, images can be shown in your posts. If the administrator has allowed attachments, you may be able to upload the image to the board. Otherwise, you must link to an image stored on a publicly accessible web server, e.g. http://www.example.com/my-picture.gif. You cannot link to pictures stored on your own PC (unless it is a publicly accessible server) nor images stored behind authentication mechanisms, e.g. hotmail or yahoo mailboxes, password protected sites, etc. To display the image use the BBCode [img] tag.

User Levels and Groups

What are Administrators?
Administrators are members assigned with the highest level of control over the entire board. These members can control all facets of board operation, including setting permissions, banning users, creating usergroups or moderators, etc., dependent upon the board founder and what permissions he or she has given the other administrators. They may also have full moderator capabilities in all forums, depending on the settings put forth by the board founder.
Fara efst

What are Moderators?
Moderators are individuals (or groups of individuals) who look after the forums from day to day. They have the authority to edit or delete posts and lock, unlock, move, delete and split topics in the forum they moderate. Generally, moderators are present to prevent users from going off-topic or posting abusive or offensive material.
Fara efst

What are usergroups?
Usergroups are groups of users that divide the community into manageable sections board administrators can work with. Each user can belong to several groups and each group can be assigned individual permissions. This provides an easy way for administrators to change permissions for many users at once, such as changing moderator permissions or granting users access to a private forum.
Fara efst

Where are the usergroups and how do I join one?
You can view all usergroups via the “Usergroups” link within your User Control Panel. If you would like to join one, proceed by clicking the appropriate button. Not all groups have open access, however. Some may require approval to join, some may be closed and some may even have hidden memberships. If the group is open, you can join it by clicking the appropriate button. If a group requires approval to join you may request to join by clicking the appropriate button. The user group leader will need to approve your request and may ask why you want to join the group. Please do not harass a group leader if they reject your request; they will have their reasons.
Fara efst

How do I become a usergroup leader?
A usergroup leader is usually assigned when usergroups are initially created by a board administrator. If you are interested in creating a usergroup, your first point of contact should be an administrator; try sending a private message.
Fara efst

Why do some usergroups appear in a different colour?
It is possible for the board administrator to assign a colour to the members of a usergroup to make it easy to identify the members of this group.
Fara efst

What is a “Default usergroup”?
If you are a member of more than one usergroup, your default is used to determine which group colour and group rank should be shown for you by default. The board administrator may grant you permission to change your default usergroup via your User Control Panel.

What is “The team” link?
This page provides you with a list of board staff, including board administrators and moderators and other details such as the forums they moderate.

Private Messaging

I cannot send private messages!
There are three reasons for this; you are not registered and/or not logged on, the board administrator has disabled private messaging for the entire board, or the board administrator has prevented you from sending messages. Contact a board administrator for more information.
Fara efst

I keep getting unwanted private messages!
You can block a user from sending you private messages by using message rules within your User Control Panel. If you are receiving abusive private messages from a particular user, inform a board administrator; they have the power to prevent a user from sending private messages.
Fara efst

I have received a spamming or abusive e-mail from someone on this board!
We are sorry to hear that. The e-mail form feature of this board includes safeguards to try and track users who send such posts, so e-mail the board administrator with a full copy of the e-mail you received. It is very important that this includes the headers that contain the details of the user that sent the e-mail. The board administrator can then take action.
Fara efst

Friends and Foes

What are my Friends and Foes lists?
You can use these lists to organise other members of the board. Members added to your friends list will be listed within your User Control Panel for quick access to see their online status and to send them private messages. Subject to template support, posts from these users may also be highlighted. If you add a user to your foes list, any posts they make will be hidden by default.
Fara efst

How can I add / remove users to my Friends or Foes list?
You can add users to your list in two ways. Within each user’s profile, there is a link to add them to either your Friend or Foe list. Alternatively, from your User Control Panel, you can directly add users by entering their member name. You may also remove users from your list using the same page.
