The navigation bar explained (top below logo) - ntype - 05-28-2007

Hello newcomers, in this post I'll explain to you how to use the top navigation bar to access the different sections of this board.

1. User CP

Short for "user control panel". This section is quite massive and will have is own post anyhow in short within this section you can control a lot of things like all your personal informations (email, nickname, name, location, avatar and so on), attachments you posted, friends, ignore list, subscribed threads, signature and finally private messages.

(go check it by yourself btw)

2. FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions, how to use a forum and such very useful if you are truly new to the forum world

3. Members list

Yeah so you can see all your little friends who registered around here (quite huge list btw)

4. New Posts

A really convenient link who will show you only and directly the new posts since your last visit. If you don't have time to scroll around the different sections this link is for you.

5. Arcade

Tons (that's metric system) - Barrels of feets (that's us-english-wacko system) of games and tournaments. I'm not joking here we have literally hundredth of games all with a centralized best scores lists and such. We organize too tournaments (well everyone can setup his own ;-).

New games arrives at regular intervals, btw if you find one cool on the web that we don't have just post a message about it we'll do our best to put it on as soon as possible (the central best score list could be tricky to setup).

6. IT Webshop

Buy our godamned shit ! yeah we have cool stuff and buy it so you'll show how much you love us. (aem).

7. Vbookie

This is our little bookmaker ! In this section we place bets about games, sports and other various events. All fun without any chill (no money involved here). Anyhow the system is quite flexible.

8. Points Shop

A LOT of actions could be done around here, mostly to the expense of other people, you can change their avatars, user titles, and much more...you just need points !

And how to get points ?

a. you posts around here, everytime you start a thread, you post an answer or that your thread becomes popular you get more and more points !

b. using the vbookie function, you bet a certain number of points then you cash out if you are a lucky b.

c. place'em into IT "bank" (where they are safe) and wait some eons that the interest rate will have
