    Yo, I know this site is VERY different than our previous Activity Stream...Its also very different than the simplicity of Facebook and Twitter.

    But once you get the hang of it, I promise its stupid easy to navigate and follow.

    So I'm down to guide anyone through the process so you don't get discouraged and leave.

    Let me know if you need help with ANY feature, no matter how "easy" you think it might be or others.

    I got you!

    I can't lie, when I joined during the beta I felt the same way. I think having a pictorial How to section would be great. Save you time and it would be something you could have for future Squad Members.

    True. Maybe that's something one (or more) of the experienced Squad Members can create for the newbies.

    I was having a tough time initially but I think the more users just interact with the site it'll all start to fall in line. Playing around with it I caught on pretty quickly.

    Yeah This is the key thing. Just about every new social site is kinda confusing at first. When I first logged onto Reddit and saw all that damn text everywhere I ran away quickly. I finally decided to give it another shot and played around on it, I quickly became skilled at the site and got hooked. Its a process.

    But I can def understand if some ppl are not eager (or have the time) to play around on a site to learn how to even use it.

    Below the space where you type your message there is a button that says "Upload a File"

    I'm still navigating and getting the hang of things... clicking and viewing everything before I make any official post (well too late for that but you get what I mean).

    It's dope.

    I'm trying to start a thread, but it's telling me I have insufficient privileges to post. What does that mean and how do I fix it?

    Above the text edit box there are 3 buttons in the editor toolbar that look like this:
    [​IMG]

    The first one adds smilies (the cutout heads), the second button lets you add an image url (or link) from another website, the third button lets you embed videos and media files from various websites (YouTube, Vimeo, Soundcloud, etc).

    Below the text edit box there are a couple buttons that look like this:
    [​IMG]

    The first button posts your message, the second button lets you upload a photo (or file) from your computer, tablet or smartphone. It embeds the image as an attachment, similar to an email.

    The ability to Post New Threads only comes after you have replied to at least 10 comments or you have donated to the site.

    Any other questions, let me know.

    How do you ignore a thread? I guess probably-just ignore it, right? But, is there a way to keep it from showing up in your timeline?

    That's strange. Based on your user lever, you shouldn't have this problem. I've adjusted it a bit, try it now.
