    Yes. You can send a multi-person conversation by adding the name of each member you wish to message in the "to" field. Type the first name, select it from the options given, then type the next name and select it. Repeat for each person you want added to the conversation.

    Question: How can I send messages to other members? Short Answer: Click "Message" from a member's profile. View full question
  3. Renee Stevens
    On each member’s profile is a button with an envelope and the word “Message”. Once you click that, it will bring up a floating message area. You can also click on the envelope icon in the site header area and click on "Compose New", then start typing in the member name of the person you wish to message in the "to" field. Options will be given based on what you are typing, and when you see the member name you wish to message, click on it to add that person to the message.

    This is the site Private Messaging System (PM). To access your site PM’s please click on the envelope. That will show you the active messages you have received.

The system has a predictive field, once you type the first three characters of the name, it will give you options to choose from and narrow it down the more you type.

    Question: What is the little bell icon in the upper right corner? Short Answer: Notifications indicator View full question
  7. Renee Stevens
    This is your notifications. It is not a chat or message area. Depending on how you set your notifications, you will see a number there when you have new notifications, such as when an author you are following posts a new chapter, or when someone replies to status updates you create or comment in, etc.

    Question: Why did you lock a topic on the forums? Short Answer: Topics are typically locked for rule violations. See full post for other possibilities. View full question
  9. Renee Stevens
    Topics can be locked for a variety of reasons. Locking a topic prevents anyone from posting to it. They may be locked if the discussion has devolved to personal attacks, off-topic responses, etc. Topics may also be locked to give the Site Moderation Team time to discuss the topic and may or may not be reopened.

    Question: What do I do if I see a violation in the forums? Short Answer: Use the report button to report rule violations View full question
  13. Renee Stevens
    Every post in the forums has a “report” option located next to the date it was posted. If you see a serious violation, such as spam, porn, or member harassment/verbal assault, you can report it to the Site Moderation Team but clicking on “report” on the post. You can also PM or email one of the Site Moderators. Please keep in mind that the Site Moderation Team will only discuss moderation with the member being moderated, so we will not inform you of what action, if any, was taken. Tech help requests should be done via the Help forum (please check if your question has been asked.)

    Question: Can I edit my posts? Short Answer: Yes, for a limited time depending on area. View full question
  15. Renee Stevens
    Yes, in fact, it is encouraged. Rather than posting multiple times in a row on the same topic, simply click the edit button for your original post and add to it.

    Question: I want to reply to a specific post, how do I do that? Short Answer: Use the quote feature to respond to specific post or part of a post. View full question
  17. Renee Stevens
    At the end of the person’s post will be a button that says “Quote”, click that. Remove the parts of the post that you are not replying to. Then give your reply outside the quote box. Another way to direct a reply to a specific member is using the @mentions tagging capability..

    Question: What languages can I use in the forums? Short Answer: English View full question
  19. Renee Stevens
    Please write in English, and not netspeak (e.g., you not u, before not b4). Do not write in all caps as it is considered to be yelling.

    Question: Can I start a topic on an article or story I read somewhere else? Short Answer: Yes, so long as it is in the appropriate forum and not political in nature View full question
  21. Renee Stevens
    Yes, providing it does not violate the political content rules, but post the link, not the entire article. Many times the content is copyrighted and it’s illegal to post it without permission. If you do post a link, it can help to include a short description what the link is.

    Question: A topic I am involved has turned into a public chat Short Answer: A conversation between two people is better suited as a Personal Message View full question
  23. Renee Stevens
    A topic I’m involved in has evolved into me and another person basically talking back and forth, what should I do? If the topic devolves into the equivalent of two or three people having what is really a 'private' conversation in public, then take it private using the PM system.

    Question: What should I do if a discussion strays off-topic? Short Answer: Try to nudge it back on track. Or start a new topic for the diversion. View full question
  25. Renee Stevens
    As much as we try to keep discussions on-topic, sometimes they stray. If a different discussion crops up in a topic, create a new topic to address that issue in the appropriate place.
