So today, I found out that your character under your profile changes on the amount of replies/forums you post. I'm still really new at this and I'm turning 13 this upcoming February. Unfortunately, I thought by this I had to post on every forum to help out things. Although I had asked someone earlier who had mentioned things about the characters before actually posting on all the top forums. They were off for a while and the teen inside of me didn't think of all the outcomes. I didn't think posting one each one time was rude and spamming. After I did that I saw that person answered my question and told me "We change member title by posting until we reach a certain post count... However, that mustn't result in posting for the sake of reaching those post counts..." Then someone followed up with "eah... pretty much EXACTLY what you're doing right now, bestariana1girl. Please stop spamming the forum, polluting RP posts with meaningless emoticons (particularly when you are NOT part of those RPs), and otherwise flooding the forum with drivel. Posts should be meaningful and well thought out to contribute to our community, not irrelevant and spammy." Ever since the spamming I have been getting A LOT of replies and messages on how things work here.
Concluding that, I would just like to apologize for my unintentional spamming. I didn't want to harm anything. I can promise you I am not a trouble maker, I'm just discovering and learning things. Who can't put their hand up saying they didn't have a little trouble adjusting to the forums at the start? I promise from now on I will post in the right way. I hope you all can forgive me, please not hating; once again my mistake was not intentional. Thank you!
P.S. I cropped my signature ;), and is thegangoffive available on a mobile device?

i'm not sure if you can get it on mobile, but you should be able to access it if you havve an ipad or other device. just keep observing and learning katie and you'll be fine
. also I deleted your extra posts for you, if you want to add stuff, just edit your post.

Okay :) Oh and I have a iPod 4, okay; you can go on it on a mobile device. It's tiny though.
-
Apology accepted. Oh. And would one of the Admins much mind moving this to...either the Fridge or the AM section would probably be better fits for this topic.
-
No problem with moving it :)
-
Yes, this part of the forum is called "General Land Before Time", a place to discuss the movies we're a fan of.
The Fridge is more suitable for these kind of messages, a general place, not land before time related. I'll move it there.
-
It's all right, we all made mistakes starting out. :) Its great to see a user who genuinely understands the mistake and wants to fix it.
-
It's okay. Just as long as you realize what you did, and don't do it again, it'll be fine.
Nice to see you for the first time, btw. Do you have a "welcome" thread yet? Hmm, I'll go look for it if it exists.

As to your question about mobile devices, I've found that it doesnt work on my mobile unless I input the URL myself. For some reason, the phone directs to the nonexistent "http://www.gangoffive.net", instead of the accurate "http://z7.invisionfree.com/thegangoffive/index.php". Haven't found a fix yet, it's even affected my bookmark.
-
^Same thing has happened to me whenever I go on mobile, like I am at the moment.
-
Everybody does mistakes, Katie. We pointed those out and you're eager to change so no hard feelings :) As you said, you're still young and in the process of learning so if there are questions feel free to ask an admin or whoever you prefer.
BTW: When I joined, I was very shy and not posting much for my language skills were poorer back then :p

Wonder why that is. I'll look into the forum settings once more to see if there's a specific line for mobile devices.

Last night I tried going to the nonexisting website but actually then put in the url in too and it worked. Thank you to everyone who understands, and yes; I'm eager to fix anything because I'm not a "break the rules person".

I guess I can accept your apology, too. Everyone tends to make dumb mistakes when they're 13, and I was no different.
Back in 2004, on a different forum, I read a fanfiction that I really liked, but it was still in progress. I had foolishly expected regular updates, and while that happened for some time, at some point a lot more time had passed since the latest update. Basically, I lost my patience and made an angry reply, adding the F word to get my point across. Bad idea. I received a warning for that. I quickly apologized for that and never again made that dumb mistake. To this day, I call that incident my biggest blunder on the internet. It's pretty much the main reason why I never use any profanity (online and in real life) under any circumstances (except extreme anger).
Some lessons have to be learned the hard way, unfortunately. I hope to see that you, like me, will make such a blunder only once.

Thank you :) and if you knew me in real life you would know I try not to blunder. xD
