I thought it might be helpful to have one thread where people can ask how to do things in the new forum. Maybe we can get it stickied.
I'll start. How do you delete a draft?

I did find a way to delete the drafts on a mac but if you're on a pc, your miles may vary.- Go to your drafts page
- Right click on the page and choose "Show Page Source"
- When the page source page shows up, hit "Command" + "F" to bring up the find bar on the top right hand corner
- In the text field, type "delete" (without the quotes) and it'll it'll search for all the mentions of "delete on the page"
- There will be a blue link where each delete is mentioned. Click the link and it's done.

- Click on the "Inbox" icon looks like a tray
- Click on the conversation that you want to delete
- On the top right hand side, there's a big ass red button that says "Delete Conversation"

There's a button to start a new thread. It is labeled "New Discussion". Within that button there is a pull down menu. You can choose "new discussion" or "new poll" or "ask a question".
Is there any actual difference at all between "new discussion" and "ask a question"?
They look the same to me.0 -
If you "ask a question" when somebody responds with an answer you can accept it as a response and answer and then it will mark the thread as answered. Still allows more people to post but that way if somebody is looking and sees a thread with the same question and it is answered they know they can go there to get the info.Team O'Donnell FTW!

The "New Discussion" is just a normal thread that does not require an answer.

However, there are other browser apps that will allow you to do this - like ViewSource ($0.99)

I fired off a PM to the Admin to take a look at the Draft page. Hopefully they can figure out why the icon/link is missing.

Okay, I figured out how to delete each Draft.
Basically, you click (or touch if you're on a device) on the top right hand corner of each white draft box.
Here's a link for more information:

The OP should be in the info line not just the last responder.

Anyone know why the photos don't seem as crisp/focused as the originals on my phone? Maybe sizing? And how can I fix that. See "what are you smoking this afternoon" thread. Thanks.1

I have noticed that too. It must be something with the auto resizing. Same with avatars too though. It's all really low res.LLA - Lancero Lovers of America0 -
I guess we deal? Unless they can correct it?0

Next time maybe I'll try taking the pic with photobucket, and resize it first?0

When I open up your full res photo its very clear.Team O'Donnell FTW!

Ok, so we have to click/open it to make it clear?0

If you click on it, it opens up the full resolution version. In the forum posts it scales it down for load times im guessing.Team O'Donnell FTW!

I'll check when I get to my laptop later.0

I want to know why my inbox (PM) is so screwed up? For a long time I kept one PM addressed to myself with a list of addys. That's where I'd store my addys. That's all it was for. When I'd get a new addy, I'd send it to myself in that same PM . It took me forever to find it today and the first post is missing! It's the one with the most addys! Then, I got to looking at other PM conversations and the first post is missing on all of them. Why!? Also, apparently, if the other person deletes their PM from their inbox, it deletes their posts in my PMs in my inbox as well. Why!?0
