Q: Is there a way to make it so people can't rate you?
no.

Q: Hey, I posted a question on "get advice". How long does it normally take to get there? So I can get advice from people. Oh love the site by the way.
It used to go up instantly, but people abused the site so much that now you have to wait for a moderator to approve your question before it's posted. Sorry for the delay :(

Q: You tried to upload a picture, but it was greater than 15K in filesize so it wasn't uploaded.
this is what i keep getting
You need to upload a smaller picture.

Q: umm...how can i get a background 4 my column??
Edit settings.

Q: how come i cant make my picture bigger?
We don't change the size of your picture unless it's shown on the main page. On your column, the size of your picture is the size that the file is. Upload a bigger picture if you want a bigger one.

Q: i accidentally asked my question to myself and i meant for it to be for the whole site. How do I get it posted on the whole site without waiting seven days?
Reject it. Then it'll either be deleted (so you can post it again) or reposted to the whole site, depending on the box you checked when you asked it.

Q: how do i delete my account?
Just stop coming to the site. You can't delete accounts.

Q: Hey there how are you people doing today?There a few problems with somone on your site with fake pictures.And is running the web with a firls picture that is very disrespectfull. I dont know what you can do to stop this but i know i could so if you could send me a e-mail with some tips or somthing you could do it would be very help full.
Thanks for your time,
Allen
We can't monitor every account and set up satellite surveillance to make sure everyone's picture is actually of them. You'll just have to relax about it.

Q: I am finding it impossible to unsubscribe to this site. Please tell me how so I can eliminate you from my system
What are you talking about, unsubscribe? Just don't go to the site! If you don't want e-mails, go into "edit settings" and turn off e-mails.

Q: Can you close your account if you have to @ all?I really want to close it all!
No, you cannot. Just stop coming to the site and try to forget your password - we cannot delete accounts.

Q: I noticed you said to some one that asked you a question about why people are using advicenators for e-mail or something but I found a advicenator that seems to jsut use advicenators for that reason.

It bugs us when people use public questions to for non-advice questions, but what happens with private questions isn't really all that big a deal.

Q: help me unsubscribe
Click "edit settings" and check "no" for all the e-mail settings. You will no longer receive e-mails.

Q: I am lizzy and you suspended me a few days ago for writing a very normal statement. I would very much like an appology letter written to singer_4_life89@hotmail.com or to my inbox on advicenators. what you did was wrong and you never even email me back after i asked why you did it. I will be complaining until i get a good appology, and i will ask the advicenators, cuz alls i put was the abbreviation for 'i don't know' which are just I D and K but apperantly you think it is gross. I think it is rude that you would think of me as that sort of person. Thank you for making me waste my time writing another unbearing letter. Email me.

An apology? What, for my moderators keeping the site clean? And you just went and asked two more public questions whining about how you were banned.

just for that, I'm banning you again.

Q: What do you all think about people posting up a "question" for people to check out their column and ask them questions? I don't really like it, but it's not like there's a rule against it or anything that I remember. Just askn for your opinions...
What do I think? It's annoying and can get you banned... so I hope people don't do it too much.

Q: how can i make my advice column look nice with pictures and stuff? :)
thnx

click the little "edit settings" link on the left side there. you'll be able to change your colors, upload a picture of yourself, etc.

Q: I've noticed recently that there are no longer level 1 moderators. Does it now just skip from 0 to 2, or what? I don't recall seeing any info on this posted on the home page. Not that I mind no longer being a moderator, me rating questions isn't exactly helping people with there problems.
oops, system bug. fixed now, we've got level I again. thanks.

Q: Is there any special way that I can become a featured columnist?
Nope. It's totally random every day, and there's no way that I know of that you can get on the good side of a computer. Just keep updating and one day luck will smile upon you.

Q: dude, you guys should totally ban ppl who give rude advice like if someone asks a fully serious question, they start like going: ya, u suck, and stuff like that. like this chick asked if she was overwieght and this dude told her : "youre a fat-ass!" like, dude, that is totally not rad!
We are banning people. But we need everyone's help to make this a good website, I can't just wave a magic wand and make everyone want to give good advice. Every time you see bad advice, you have to give the person something good to make up for it.

Q: I'm just wondering why every columnist is not listed. The list in each separate group only goes as far as page 3, and then there are no more. I know there have to be more columnists than that.

And can't there be an option to sort them by alphabetical order? I'm looking for a certain person, but can't find them anywhere.
We cut them off to save system resources - I didn't think any one person would need to see a list of more than 50 columnists at a time.

I think a search feature would best suit needs like yours. I'll start working on one, because I see a definite need.

Q: hi um i lost forget my password and i have no idea what it is my past username and password were R14869g [user name] and jb[password] could you please tell me what they are now?thanks des.please reply ASAP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This advice column is for suggestions, comments, or error reporting about advicenators. If you'd like to suggest a new category, ask me a question. If you'd like to whine, bitch, or complain about advicenators, you may whine, bitch, or complain to me.

Three rules though:
1) Do not ask me for life advice. We have several thousand other members that do that.

2) Do not ask for help, or ask how to do something, or ask about
how something on the site works, unless you've read every word of our help pages and you're sure it's not addressed there.

3) Do not ask me to ban someone or investigate abuse. We have an entire abuse system set up for that.

If you disobey one of these rules, I'll delete your question.

Some guidelines about suggestions:
If you offer a suggestion that I find interesting, I might just ignore your question so it stays in my inbox as a reminder of something to do. Don't be upset that I don't answer you, and don't delete your questions (because then I'll forget!)

If you have three suggestions, please ask three separate questions, that way I can address each one individually. It's a real pain when people ask one question with like twenty different topics in it; I can't keep them straight.
