vBulletin 3.0 Gold Questions

[Sleeping Beauty]

Just a quick question: You know little preview box that comes up when you hover or just click once on threads, why does it only show up on posts I haven't read yet and not on posts that I have? Is it just a board thing for new posts or is my computer just being random?

[Gorwingel]

Ok, I just have a quick, little question...

Now I know that the little green box (the one that says "Gorwingel has started on the path to adventure... blah..blah" when you put your cursor over it) has been asked about before, and that we kind of know what it is for. But I was just wondering... today I was just doing my regular reading of various threads, and I noticed that Saucepan Man had two little green boxes instead of just one! *gasp*

Now is the extra box because of Saucepan Man having many messages in his reputations, or is it because of something else?

An answer would be greatly appreciated

It's because he's "As faithful as Samwise." So's Esty, now, I think.

Barrow Wight-- the way that PM'ing is set up right now, the system automatically saves a copy of each PM I send, unless I remember to tell it not to. It also defaults to "Ask For Read Receipt", or whatever it's called.

I've looked for a way to default these to OFF and I haven't found one yet. Any suggestions?

Is there a way to change my name without having to re-register? There probably isn't, but I just thought I'd ask.

[The Barrow-Wight]

Nope. We decided long ago that if we allowed people to change their nicks it would only lead to mass confusion.

I changed my email address and now I'm getting emailed responses to all of my subscribed threads. I went into my profile and checked the option not to have an email response, but I'm still getting them. Do you know why, and how I can fix it?

Cheers,

Has anyone else experienced occasional trouble getting the 'add post' and ‘edit’ boxes to show up. It usually seems to happen when I am in a bit of a hurry.

You can manage your subscribed threads in the "List Subscriptions" area of the User Control Panel. You can delete subscriptions or change the e-mail update type (none, every post, weekly update, etc.) using controls similar to the ones used to manage your PMs.
