Thread Board Symbols??

[BonJoeV]

The two left most columns on the thread list...

What do the symbols mean? The flaming one is fairly clear.

Thanks,

I'll oblige a little.

1st column in the boards:

= Sticky post, the moderator has "stuck" this post so its always at the top, until he "unsticks" it. Admin is the only one that can do this.

= Hot Thread, yes, this is the clear one, this is a hot topic, I still don't know the exact criteria to make it this.

= Thread. Just a regular old thread, either it is too new to be a hot topic, or just a boring post.

= Poll thread. The thread here includes a poll where members can cast a vote.

= Locked Thread - The administrator has locked this thread for responses. Consider it dead.


2nd column in the boards - Message Icon. These can be changed by the initial thread posters. Can be found below the subject box of the post or reply.

= Standard
= Thumb up
= Thumb down
= Exclamation point
= Question mark
= Lamp
= Angry
= Cheesy
= Laugh
= Sad
= Wink


= New thread. The thread with this symbol has changed since the last time you logged in (as a registered user) or in relation to the rest of the posts (as a guest).

Hey IB,

Thanks for the 411 about the symbols. In observing the Thread List, I think a Thread goes Flaming when the replies are posted on a second page.

How observant! Guess it means it's a "hot topic".
