Working with the Website

Rules for Using the Website

The principle behind this website is as follows: on the forum you can write about anything, preferably in the appropriate sections; moderators select useful information and distribute it into the corresponding sections of the website.
In addition, on the forum moderators regularly clean up topics in order to remove posts that have been moved to the proper place and are useless for a new user. The point is that in one day you can spam not 200, but 2000 messages, and no one will read that. So everything that is not beneficial to the topic will be deleted gradually.

Copyright infringement may be punished severely. Therefore, we will not violate it.
You must not be rude on the forum. In general, respect those with whom you communicate; otherwise, the moderators will not respect you.

Instructions for Using Certain Website Features

Registration: hover the mouse over the «Registration» link at the top right, enter a login (preferably in Latin letters) and the password twice (it is checked that they are the same to reduce the likelihood of a typing error: you cannot see it) (also in Latin letters); if no such username is registered, a new account will be created. The display name can be changed later in the profile settings (the face image in the profile, which appears at the top right only after authorization on the website).
And please be more careful with your passwords. If you enter an incorrect password 3 times, the website will ban you automatically. For at least a day, and maybe longer—depending on your luck. This is for your own good—someone may try to guess your password... And they will not succeed (including via cookies).
Attention!!! If, in response to your registration or login, you received a white page with the inscription: "admonition", then a penalty point has been added to your IP. 3 such points mean a one-day ban.
Above the input field there are buttons—enter in the dialog what you want to do in the corresponding font or the addresses of links and images, and they will be added to the end of the message.
Everything can be edited (capabilities are limited to ensure security)—see the basics of HTML.
To insert a file up to 1 MB in size (if it is an image, the smaller the better: have mercy on the server and users—they will have to download it later!): you need to click «Browse», select the file, then click «Insert» and wait until the link to it appears in the text field. If the file is no more than 500 KB, this is quite realistic. If this file is an image, it will be displayed the same way as an image from the Internet.
To insert a smiley, you need to hover the mouse over the button with the smiley, select the one you like, and click it. You can also simply type them as the text that is inserted when you click that button.
In addition, you can simply insert the one you like as an image. Copy its address, for example, from the Kolobok website. There is even a special mechanism for this: select "url" in the list of little buttons under the "Code" line, then click the smiley—the URL will appear there; copy it). And here insert it into the text as an image (the button with the picture and the tooltip "Insert image").
How to use RSS I wrote about earlier on taichichuan.ru.
Navigation on the website is carried out using the menu. At the top, the path to the current page is shown; on the left is the main menu—the first level of nesting into the main page.
To view previous messages on pages like «discussion» faster, use Ctrl and the left and right arrow keys! You will still have to wait, of course, but much less than by clicking the page numbers in the header.

Posting Materials

Uploading large batches of photos, videos, and so on requires a lot of preparatory work, and the upload process itself takes a decent amount of time. Therefore, burn them to a CD and hand them over to me. And you will have happiness!
