About MaxwellsSilverHammer



I am a 20 year urban planning student from New York. I go to school, and work, way too much.

I'm a level II mod on this site, so if you have questions regarding the site I could be of good help.

As for my crappy advice: it is crappy. If you listen to anything I suggest you will most probably find yourself running through town naked, or something equally hilarious, because I am a sadist.

And of course, I will hit you with my guitar, and then steal all of your intelligence for my own personal stash.

(My avatar, that is just above, was made by Draak, it is Thor's Hammer, or Mjolner.)

P.S.: Storageanddisposal is actually 12, and Fern sucks.

Okay, so I just asked a question and someone gave me an answer...as soon as I read that I read the exact replica of it and it's from two DIFFERENT users. The user on the top (obviously) copy and pasted the answer another person posted before her. Is there anything done about that?

Usually the person who was copied off of would do this, but I don't see why you can't do it.

How do I become a moderator? Level II? etc.

I already looked in the F.A.Q. but I couldnt find it so if its in there could you send me the direct link or just tell me.

Thanks in advance.

Go here: http://www.advicenators.com/mod.php?mode=makeme

If you meet those requirements, you just became a level I moderator.

Not many people are level II moderators. You need to be a hardworking level I moderator who is also trustworthy, and then you might be promoted.

How do you make stuff bold in your column. I put
< b > and then < b / > but without the spaces, only it made everything bold, not only the word I wantd.
please help..
thanks

Because the "/" is supposed to go before the "b," not after it.

When I ask questions, how do I know that they're completely safe and some advicenator that's a mod2 could spread that I wrote the question? And when your question goes through, can they see your username?

Level 2 and 3 mods can view your username, but only if we click a link that says "Check Account" to do so. It's not visible right next to your question

Generally speaking we:

1. Are trusted to not abuse this privilege.

2. Have no desire to, because even if you feel a question is embarrassing, we've read it already 1000 times from other people and have no desire to check.

3. Will look at it only if it is something that will constitute a ban from the site, or involves some extreme legal circumstance that we have to report to some higher authority, which is, incredibly rare.

So, your questions can be trusted in our hands; don't be afraid to ask them.

You would be cooler if you were today's featured user AND your page views was the same as your user number. It's close but no gummy cigar.

But you see, my featured user status has resulted in a massive spike in my popularity, only draining away from yours. JEALOUS?

And, build a strong enough rope with which to hang yourself, because you suck.

AND WHAT?

How do you get choosen to be a featured columnist? Thanks Ill rate.

Is there a way to delete questions from your column all at once? For example, I have a lot of pages it would be way to hard to go from question to question.

Also, can you change your name on advicenators without making a new account?

Thanks

If you want to delete your answers to columns, you need need to go to the "Edit Answers" page - http://advicenators.com/qview.php?mode=myans - click a question you want to delete, highlight all the text and delete it. Submit it again blank, and it will be deleted.

If you want to change your name, you need to buy a paid account - http://advicenators.com/paidaccounts.php

I have answered a lot of questions in my column, some of them pretty long. I was wondering, do they stay on my column forever? Do they magically go away sometime? Most have been read and rated by those asking. Didn't know if there was a limit on how much could be held there. Thank you.KR(younggrandma)

Yeah, they all stay there. They aren't all on the first page though. At the bottom there is the page selection thingy, page 1, 2, 3, and so on.

Ok...so you know how you get a little alert after you've asked a question and someone has answered it (that little number by 'your questions')? I keep getting that, and half the time no new answers are on my question. What's up with that?
I also saw my question on the question pages and it says I have nine answers, but when I click on it and count the answers it, I only have 4.

It's kinda new that thing, there are still some bugs to work out of it.

Im on my name AlYsSa13192 and i payed for it yesterday and it wont let me decorate my page. Why wont it let me?

Your order may have not been processed yet.

I reccommend you ask this question straight to advicenator_admin, she probably has the answer: http://www.advicenators.com/question.php?u=4

[view]


okay whenever someone goes to ask me a question it says im like not accepting questions from anyone whats going on?

http://www.advicenators.com/settings.php

Go there and scroll down to "Who can ask me questions." If "no one" is checked, that's why.

[view]


how long does it take to have an abuse case acknowledged?

Until a level II or III mod checks to see if there are any new abuse reports. Usually within a day, max.

I just took care of your abuse report, by the way.

Alot of people's columns look different and at the bottom it says Layout By Dustin..how do you get it like that? Thanks

http://advicenators.com/style.php

You can select different column styles there, and change the colors around. The ones that say "layout by Dustin" are using the theme called "Your Space."

There are three others you can try out, if you want to change your column more you need to purchase a paid account (http://advicenators.com/paidaccounts.php) which are $10/year.

if someone reports another person, will the person being reported know the username of the person reporting them? sorry if confusing!

No, only you and level two or three moderators can view it.

how do u ban people from the chatroom.because there is this person who keeps on banning me and my friends.

If you're the one who said you would "**** me up if I came into your chatroom again," you're never coming back.

If you're anyone else, then when someone gets banned they get unbanned in like a week tops, so just wait it out, sorry for any inconvenience.

You can't ban someone from the chatroom, only chat ops can.

is there a way to block coments from certain ppl? some ppl say stupid or mean stuff and its not very nice. anyone reading this that does that ,also, could u stop? thanx

At the moment there's no way but the high level admins are considering adding an "ignore" feature.

[view]


When I logged on it said I had 1 thing in my Inbox so I clicked then when it loaded it said that I didn't have any unanswered questions. So does that mean I don't have any questions or it is a mistake with the site?

Did you click the link in an email that brought you right to the question someone asked you? If you do that, it's still shows as "1 new message" on the sidebar, but if you click it, it'll say you have no messages, and when you refresh, it won't say you have a new one anymore.
