General TE tips

[Trek420]

I thought I'd post this tip here due to the recent rash of spam on board. It occured to me that between new TE'ers and it's never been explained how to delete spam (I had to learn on the streets, just like I've learned everything else I know) maybe there's only a few of us who knew what to do.

Also realised that once the admin gets back from his ride and deletes said spam, my instructions will dissapear.

Hence this new thread.

So, when you see spam, first calm down take a deep breath, have some cytomax.

Now on each post, under the userid of the poster do you see a little white triangle? Click there and it alerts the admin to the spam and or hostile posting, flames, spelling errors etc.

I'm just kidding about the spelling errors, don't alert the admin to that.

The only posts you WON'T see the triangle are your own. You can't report yourself.

If you need to report yourself ask someone else to do that for you ;-)

So now you know what many "morning people" self included do when checking TE waaaay too early in the morning and you can be part of the posse that keeps TE spam free too.

Figured this thread could be a place for general TE tips, managing attachments, creating icons, how too uze the spell cheque feechure.
