How do I bump my own topics?

---

Bumping topics is a friendly way to move your topic to the top of the forums without having to reply to it. We understand that sometimes topics will get pushed down really fast at the bottom of the page or the next page when other users are posting their own topics. This makes it hard for you to receive any replies from other users. It is also possible that you want more input from users for a topic you made a week ago. This is why we decided to add a Bump topic feature for those who want to keep their topic discussion alive.

You can bump your own topics by clicking the "Bump topic" link located in the dropdown menu of the "Post a reply" button. Only the OP (Original Poster) of the topic can bump their topic. You may only bump a topic after 60 minutes have passed from the time you last received a reply to that topic. Please do not unnecessarily reply to your own topics to get it to the top of the active topics list/forum. Use this wonderful feature instead!

How can I bookmark and watch topics?

---

When you are viewing the topic you would like to bookmark, you can bookmark the topic by clicking on "Bookmark this topic" link located in the dropdown menu of the "Post a reply" button. This will add your topic to your bookmarks so that you can watch it.

To watch your bookmarks, click on the "bookmarks" button found at the top of the forum between drafts and active topics button. Click on it and you will see a list of your bookmarked topics.

How can I set a prefix for my topic?

---

To the left of the subject field when creating a new topic, there will be a dropdown menu that will list the topic prefixes you can choose from. Some forums do not have any prefixes. Prefixes are optional and not required.



If at any time you would like to change the prefix of your topic, you can change it by editing your topic's first post.

Where do I save and load drafts?

---

When writing a really long thread or reply, you can click the "Save draft" button to the left of the Preview and Submit buttons to save what you have so far. This option will come in handy for threads/replies that are very long and that may take up hours to complete.


To load up your draft, you must go back to the forum or topic that you composed the thread/reply in and click on "New Topic" or "Post a reply". There will be a "Load draft" button to the left where you can continue where you left off. After clicking the button, select the draft you want to load up.


You may also manage your drafts at the top of the forums. Click on the "Drafts" button. Here you will be able to load and delete drafts you don't need anymore.

Where can I report a post that is violating the forum rules?

---

At the bottom right of every post, next to the reply button you will see a small flag icon. To report the post, simply click on the flag button that will send you to the report page. Fill out all the information and click Submit. When a mod or admin closes your report after handling it, you will receive an e-mail notification.

Where do I upload and approve/deny selcas?

---

At the top right of this website, there is a red button with a camera icon. Click this button if you wish to upload a selca to the website. Once you have uploaded the selca, it will send you to the pending page. To approve or deny selcas of other users, click the white button to the left of the red camera button. The number displayed in this button shows how many selcas are currently pending for approval.
