After spending the last two days setting this board up I've come up with a list of tips to make posting here as easy as possible:

1)If you posting only in the subject line as a note, you do not need to mark (NT) at the end of your message. Voy will automatically add the (NT) unless something is put in the body of the message.

2)Unfortunately, we still do not have the ability to edit messages once they are posted. So, as always, make sure you read your stuff over well before you send it into the void ;)

3)Archiving will be done when we reach 60 threads or 350 messages on a board.

4)We are able to reply to archived posts, however doing so will remove the post from the archive & put it back into the main index.

5)For those of you who were familiar with the old ParentsPlace board the messages are listed like they were there -- oldest to newest, with newest at the bottom of the page. Messages will not jump around & your browser should NOT open a new window to view each new message.

6)The "Post a New Message" button should be on all screens. This enables us to post a message to the current board, even if you are in the archives at the time.

7)Whenever you want to return to the current board simply click on "Main Index" and it will take you there.

8)Voy will post a new message up to every 15 seconds. If you post & your message does not appear on the main page when you go back try refreshing your browser.

9)Any questions, ideas, or concerns please don't hesitate to contact me by clicking on "Contact Form Admin". I can delete spam (and already have as a matter of fact), but please give me at least 24 hrs to get rid of a spam-type post before you e-mail me letting me know it's there. My day job is shift work & I'm starting a business at the moment, so there will be days when I'm not able to check the board until late in the day.

Most importantly, enjoy yourself! I'm looking forward to growing this board & providing another place for all us "tightwads" to find support, ideas & friendship. I'm glad you could join us!
