I got more mentions in that update than you did.

Nice thread, SL, and very useful.

 

It was actually Fallen Angel's Idea for a link in the header, so i can't take credit for it.

I just thought i'd post so it's there when we put it in there.

 

Also, to all you newcomers, you may notice that some members of these boards have different colours for their names, this is because they are generally high up on the food chain of the boards... It means that they could be System administrators, managers, moderators or VIPs (like some of the cast/crew of Star Wars)... They could also be City Representatives and RSA's as well. Some examples of this in these particualar boards are SithLeia who, as she said in the original post in this thread, is West Australia's City Rep., Shara_82 who is one of the RSAs and Kartanym, who is incharge of http://www.theforce.net/games.

You may also notice that some people use smiley faces throughout their posts... For example etc... To find out how to use these, you will see a link at the top of your screen called Faces. This will explain how to use them. Also, the boards have their own markup language for the use of links and inserting images into our posts. These are similar to html, but not quite. You will see a link at the top of your screen called Markup Codes. This will explain how to use them.

I hope this has helped you.

 

I am new here so I was just wondering how do I actually post ?

 

Yeah thats funny, real funny. I think you answered your own question thou.

Welcome to the boards...

 

*gives sithstar a xxxx * there you go...feel more at home now

 

Well it has been a while since we've seen our old buddy Sithstar. I would actually believe that he may have forgotten how to post. Good to see an old regular back again.

 

hay there peoples whats doin
and by the way SK I am rather well aware of how to post in case you didnt notice
it was just a joke

 

Hello everybody, I saw this place a few weeks ago and thought I might join up and say hello to everyone. I use to read the JC boards quite a bit sometime ago but never knew this place was here, well since I checked the other week anyway.

I am also in Perth, are many of you from Perth here also? From a quick glance there seems to be quite a few of you. Hope to post more often anyway, Ill have to see what I can find to talk about. Thanks.

 

Goodafternoon I am new to the board, and I am looking forward to some interesting conversation.

I would love to know when the Epiode 2
Atack of the Clones video will be out.

will post again soon

 

Welcome to both of you from myself and the others who've been around here for a while. Keep an eye out for upcoming events. We get together for informal forum meets from time to time. I'm thinking of an open invitation to something at our place sometime in the near future. A video & pizza night or something like that for the old and new forum regulars alike.

 

To answer your question JEDI-DAN, the Episode 2 Video and DVD come out late November. We have heard rumours that it's either November 26th or 29th. I'm looking forward to it. Welcome to the boards JEDI-DAN and Ulric-Thor

 

Guess I'll stick my head in and say hello too, been lurking around a while, but never posted.

Is it safe to come out yet?

 

With star wars geeks running amok? Hell no

Altho it's safe at the moment. If you feel threaten at any time take a hiatus to another board
We give out free blue milk!!!

 

Pfft, anyone threatens me, I'll take my Scissorhands and offer them a neck rub

 

Hiya all...


I'm UmmYep's older brother... I look forward to lurking and reading and occasionally posting....


Lee

 

I'd also like to welcome the new people. Thanks for making use of this thread...

Thats great! There does seem to be quite a few people in here, all very friendly to, thanks everyone. Look forward to talkin to you all.

 

I apologise if this post makes the new members feel a little stupid, it is not my intention. Just thought I'd get that out of the way before I start my post...

New members may have noticed that a lot of people have icons. I've noticed that a lot of the new members have the icons themselves, but it took me a while to find them when I first started out so I thought I'd let people know how to add the icons themselves.

If you are logged into the boards you can choose your icon etc. If you look at the top of the screen and go to the link that says Options it will take you to a page with all these options you can setup. Third from the bottom is the Choose Your Icon page. It's pretty self explanatory from there... Unfortunately we only have a choice of icons from the ones that can be found on those pages, but! if there is a particular character you want a icon of (Star Wars related, of course) you can head on over to the JC Communications board and there are a few icon related threads in there. One is the Custom Icons Submission Thread and the other is The JC Icon Pick. As far as I am aware the rules of each thread is posted in the first post.

I hope this has been helpful and once again I apologise if I come across as making people feel stupid. Welcome to the boards and enjoy your time here.

 

I did notice that they add new ones now and then. Guess that explains why. I browse through them occasionally to see if there's any new ones I really like.

 

hey hello all first time in, good to find a local forum. Makes it all a lot easier with release dates and so as you all no. I'm excited ! well see you all soon.

 

Welcome to the boards jazteq. Hope you enjoy your stay.

 

Quite the name you have there sir, welcome to the boards.
