Feedback / Someone has registered a similar name to mine! [14]

Here is a list of the biggest online forums: big-boards.com

I've just done a small experiment. I signed up on the biggest Internet forum - gaiaonline.com. This forum has over 6 million registered members.

I noticed there was a member with the username: kikigirl.

gaiaonline.com/profile/index.php?view=search.ShowSearch&typ e=username&item=kikigirl

I registered without problems as: kikigirl2

gaiaonline.com/profile/index.php?view=search.ShowSearch&typ e=username&item=kikigirl2

If you have time, you may count how many usernames starting from the word: girl to girlX (where X is a numer) there are.

Cheers,

Admin

Well, it is impossible to have the SAME usernames. You may try to register as "sparky" again and you'll notice you won't be able to do that.

If you are referring to the fact that it is possible to have Name and Name232 as usernames -- it's how the Internet and the websites for registered users work. It's the world standard (a while ago I registered an emali address with gmail as "myname2" and I hope the guy with myname name will not sue me or google for that...).

Since you write from Australia, I'm not sure which president you are referring to.

Not sure what period Arien means - but if it was on Jan 25, then most likely - Yes.

Feedback / Checker: "You have unread messages in your queue..." [17]

It seems you haven't checked the Checker for a while. Just reset your starting date (select today's or yesterday's date and confirm) and then you can check for new messages only posted on the forums.

For those who don't have time to be a little creative, the first few words taken from the recipe will be fine.

However, the best title is unique and summarizes the content of the message in a few words. It takes a little practice, but in the end it's worth it :).

Admin

Feedback / Request for translation deleted? [25]


Admin doesn't take personal offense. :) Just trying to make sure the user experience is good. We don't think reading the same topic titles would provide such.

For example:

Translation
Please translate
Translate to English
Translation to Polish
Translation Help
Polish to English
Help translate
Polish translation

are way too general (both for the translator and the reader) and don't describe the topic.

Same here:

Message translation
SMS translation
Text translation

It should be obvious the users can only provide translations of texts between English and Polish, so why repeat that all over again..

Quoting: Kochana_Babcia, Post #3 [/quote]I'm still confused even after reading the link you provided..for instance
Sarah posted 1/17/07
Could someone please translate:
Nie moge sie docekac Ciebie..
Many Thanks x

What is wrong with the post that it was put into Trash Can?
The wrong is the title of the thread.

Feedback / Who's on-line function? [9]

That wouldn't be a big problem to implement, but we don't think we'll do it in the near future because we feel it would scare some users off if other users could see they are online at the moment. We tested it and it seems that's how it goes.

No, all posts must be in English (unless they are related to translation requests). Admin

Did you check your Junk Mail folder? Admin

Feedback / Sending PMs to other members [24]


It seems you are doing it correct; the only reason the message would not go through is if the recipient ("bubbawoo" in this case) has an invalid/inactive email in his/her profile.

Actually, I've just sent a couple of test messages to different accounts and it's working as good as always.. :) What do you to to send a PM? Admin

Feedback / Editing topic title by Admins or Moderators [10]

Q: Why did my question asking why the title of my thread was changed be deleted?
mods please answer.

A: Admin and moderators have the right to edit the topic title or the posted message. In this case we edited your title from something like "Your thoughts on GG" to "Poles using online chats..." because some if not most posters may not know what "GG" means and your post was referring to all online chats, not only Gadu-Gadu. For more information read the [polishforums.com/privacy-conduct.html] Privacy and Rules section.

Here are some important tips on [polishforums.com/thread-title.html] how to compose a good thread title.

Admin

Feedback / Admin why did you edit my title? or remove my post? [8]

You posted the same message both in the Introduction and Polish Singles and More. If you want to post in both sections, the messages must be different.

Regarding the title, we prefer that people here talk in English only. Thank you for your understanding.

Then welcome to Polish Forums! We value members who can provide useful information about Poland and Polish-related issues from different perspectives... and who don't disappear overnight :}.

If you have a Polish-related service to announce, you may do so in this section ONLY: Business in Poland. And keep everything in one thread.

Admin

Feedback / my posts keep getting removed [14]

OK. We don't like those posters who post one or two comments with a link to their website (in the hopes it will increase their pagerank or link popularity) and then disappear. Constructive and informational comments are always welcome. Thanks,

Admin

- Within the last 15 minutes you opened about 5 new topics (even though I created one topic for you in the correct category, but you kept composing new topics).

- You replied to some posts just to announce you provide services.
- You used 3 different usernames.

Language / Polish letters Alt-codes... Anyone? [60]

It's actually quite simple. If you have MS Word follow these steps:

1. From the menu select: Insert, then Symbol...
2. In the Font tab select: (Normal text...)
3. You will find all Polish letters there.
4. Select/highlight one of the letters and press on the "Shortcut Key..." button.
5. Choose a new shortcut key (for example for the letter ó press: Ctrl+Alt+o).
6. Follow steps 4-5 until you assigned all Polish letters.

Cheers,

Admin is a PL living in US. Yes, this forum was started by him. I'm working online so it's easier to manage a site like that.
