Can someone please tell me?

Hello my friends

I know I should have asked this before, but could someone tell me where I can find information with reegard to the three columns of symbols on the message boards? I know one means I have already replied to it, but I am still unclear as to what they mean.

I still can't work out how a message let's me know when I have had an answer to a post or replied to someone elses.

Thanks

Hugs

This help guide might help (you'd hope so anyway...). It explains about using bookmarks which is how you'd get email or pm notifications of replies in certain threads. You have to bookmark the thread and then select how you wish to be notified in the 'bookmarks' section of your profile.

I'm not aware of a symbol showing whether or not you've replied to a thread, only if you've read it. So maybe I'm not the best person to ask! On the front page of the forum, the guinea pig icon with the carrot shows which forums have new posts in - the carrot is lit up orange if there are. Within each forum, the 'new icon' shows which threads have new posts in since your last viewing.

And the folder icons down the side just show how many replies something has had - the folder is standard and the fire on the folder means it's a hot topic. A padlock on it means one of the staff have locked it so no one can reply.

Are you even more confused now?!
