PROFILE BLOG / COMMENT

profile blog / comment

i guess some of you already found that there's something different in your account profile! well, i'm happy to introduce you to our new addition, profile blog/comment! we want to enhance communication between members and staff / members and members. i know some members think that the staff team is intimidating! DD: but don't worry, we're not! the caution staff are always ready to talk to the caution members. although we have the pm system, it still a bit intimidating to send a message sometimes. but this profile blog/comment will make communication easier and more convenient! next time when you see someone has a beautiful siggy and you want to tell them, but don't know what to do, you can leave a comment in their profile <3 your comment doesn't really need to relate to the blog lol. even "oh whoa you're from ___? me too!" is alright too! be friendly, be random, be happy. make friends with your fellow cautioner! a wonderful friendship might start because of a "hi" :D

here are some rules that you must follow (both blog and comment):
---- no advertising. no spamming. because it's hard to identify whether a link is "friendly share" or "advertise", we advice you not to post any direct link to a rpg-related site.
---- no bitching, no personal attach, no rude comments.
---- do not use the profile comment to request anything. use the request forum please.
---- do not post picture that will stretch the board! use thumbnail or link to it.
---- if someone doesn't have a graphic tracker, posting in their profile comment is acceptable.
---- any important message to staff/members should be done with pm, since we check our pm inbox more often.
---- don't share private information! it's still a public place!
---- when someone posted in your profile, and if you want to reply to them, you should post in their profile, not yours. i mean, how are they going to find out you replied? stalk your profile? :P

all rules subject to change.

step 2



about the reputation thing: i can't remove that. it comes with the blog/comment. i know i can't control you, please i hope that no one would use the thumbdown icon. (: the thumbup one is more lovely!

HOW TO EDIT YOUR BLOG OR COMMENT:

sadly, you cann't edit it directly. but there's always a way...
click "Find all topics by this member" of the profile that you posted a blog or comment on.



find a topic like this and click into it:



then you'll find the topic, an actual thread of it and you can edit your post! (:



that's all! i hope you guys would make good use of it! and have fun <3
remember to tell us if you have any difficulties or got spam D:
also tell us what do you think about it! this feature is still in trial period, we might remove it if we don't think it fits.
btw, you might see a code like this: [pdata][/pdata] in your code. it's normal! don't remove it! (:

something weird about the system:
---- the first post of your profile thread won't show up in your profile. so no use to edit your first post.
---- sometimes it won't auto refresh after you 'submitted' the message. to play safe, you should copy your message and refresh the page. most of the time you'd find it got posted.
---- when you haven't fully set up your profile blog, and if you refresh your own profile many times, it might auto makes many profile thread for you. don't worry. you can post here or pm a staff (preferably jenya since deleting those thread could be quite annoying. jenya doesn't want the staff get tired because of it D:)
---- if you changed your username, the system won't recognise your new name and your new post would become 'comment' instead of your blog. if anyone changed their username and don't like how it became, please make a new topic in the profile blog forum and pm the link to jenya and she'll help you edit that hidden code in your siggy via the admin cp (you can only edit that code via the cp). but the old comments would need to be moved, but you can read them in the achieve.

i hope this function's advantages are more than the disadvantages D:

i think this new blog feature is amazing -nods-

This is incredibly amazing! *faints*

OKAY SO I SAW ALL THOSE THREADS.

and i was about to go pm the admins about how
someone hacked into caution. then i saw the comment
thing in the profile. so i felt better. XD


I LOVE THIS IDEA.

i got like, five blogs posted under my username,
i was wondering if they could be deleted?

deleted! i don't know why it would start so many topics. i saw other members have the same situation too. just pm me (or leave me a message) and i'll help you delete the other useless topics.
by the way, i noticed sometimes after you "submited a comment" the page won't auto refresh. you need to refresh the page yourself and you'll see the comment has been posted (:
if anyone can't post their blog/comment, you can ask here or pm me too.

that is so cool thank!

i also got more than one topic posted under my name.
could they be deleted please? :]

amazing idea and it's really fun x]
i'll probably do this for two hours
straight and just click on each members
name and tell them i love them and
they rock (: no. really.

i have, like, four topics. o.o
but i think it's cool. not the
four topics, the idea. cool.

this scared me at first, XD
i didn't see the site update when I
first came on and saw all that and
was like, what the heck is this? lol.

i like it though!

-faints-

love!

emme approves of this bamf idea. <3

aj will be flooding hers with her ramblings because life is too short not to ramble xD

JK YOU CAN TOO EDITTTT!
I LOVE THIS =]
