Newbie Guide! (All Newbies Come Here)
« Thread Started on Aug 23, 2007, 5:24pm »

First of all, I'd like to welcome you to Jackson High School, and I hope you enjoy it a lot.

This is a guide for new members to JHS, and I figured I'd just make this to help you out a bit.
Here's just some stuff that you need to know, and that might be helpful to you:

* If you haven't read the rules yet, you MUST do so as soon as possible. Remember that you MUST post at least once the day that you join or your account will be deleted.

* Just look around the forum a bit and get to know some boards. If you think you'll have trouble remembering important boards or role plays you joined, or the rules, try adding them to your Favorites/Bookmarks.

* It might get sort of confusing getting around in JHS
There are two boards on the home page; Out Of Character and Role Plays. Inside these boards are sub boards and threads.

* JHS is a shortened version of Jackson High School, which most members use.

* You should check the table on the home page daily-- it has weather, plot twists, and other vital information.

* The Quick Reply is a text area at the bottom, where you can quickly post in any board. However, if you want to have more options and a longer text space, you can click on a small button at the bottom right corner of the last post in that board, which says 'Reply.'

* At the bottom of the home page, in the Info Center, there's a link that says 'View the 50 most recent posts of this forum.' If you click on it, you can see the, well, 50 most recent posts in JHS. It's really helpful.

* If you'd like to experiment with the different things you can do with your post (quote, bold, strike-through, etc.), you can mess around in the Testing thread in the Help board.

* If you still need help with something, you can go to our Help board or ask a mod/admin. They'd be happy to help.

* Moderators are members (usually the more active ones) that help me out by deleting the role plays that haven't been posted in for seven or more days.

* If you want to change or add anything to a post made by you, you can click on the 'modify' button, which you can find on the top right corner of every one of your posts.

Questions and Contact: If you have any more questions or concerns about anything, you can contact me or Bren in these ways: you can send us a PM (Personal Message). PM "Shnapdragon" or "admin". You can also contact us via email-- I am "shnapdragon@yahoo.com", and Bren is "theroleplaysite@hotmail.com".

Again, welcome to Jackson High School!
Hope you have an amazing day.
