Yeah, you read that right. I'm considering writing up a FAQ for the newbs. If it doesn't scare them away all together it should hopefully cut down on the stupid questions in the chat, cause if there's anyone who's going to act stupid there it's going to be me... or Yvond.. or Leggy.. or Cal.. or SlowMy, hmmmm.. Wow, we're really all a bunch of ding dongs.
ANYWAYS, I'm looking for suggestions of frequently asked questions I should answer.
So lets hear 'em!

I suppose most newbies looking at our chat and our forum, must think we're a brawling lot, so I think an answer to 'what are the various factions of senior members'...
I can see a number of obvious factions : the bible beaters, the forum purists, the arogant lot, the unemployed, the frenchies, weird canadians, etc...
So kind of like a who is who question...

First of all
"look before asking!!!"
top-left corner number of requests
In modules menu: Playlist/requests, queue/played
In listen menu: the streams with the quality of the stream. And importantly which ones are up.
So that should cover 98% of the questions :D |

OK, Cocles, here is the list of the most asked questions (the last 2%) :
why can't I request another song
Why is the xxx stream not working
why is Cocles so nasty...
How do I rip the stream
Why the STs aren't separated, I can't rip the stream
Why do we have to register

I'm just wondering if it is a good idea to let you write the answers to those FAQ.

Okay, here's how you do it, Bongo.
Over on the left you'll see where it says "Forums". Click on that and you'll find a list of mods.
Click on each of them and you'll see their forum rank. Now scamper your drunk little butt over to the sticky post in the "General" category that defines the ranks. Comparing, you'll see that this site has three admins who are Sensei, me and POPMUZIK.
Wow Cal, not sure why you were curious how I'd answer. Maybe you should...
