[Fortress | Sveet]

I'm curious about this too. I've been considering gifting my premium too so my friends can change their titles and stuff

 

[ndayday]

Assuming you contacted the right person (Virgilijus) it will be done soon. He waits for a few requests to stack up and then does everything, so that's why.

 

[BSP]

And if nothing stacks up?

 

[ndayday]

If you don't use any dishes, glasses, or silverware for a week, do you still run the dishwasher?

 

[Fortress | Sveet]

^ is that a trick question?

 

[Wikipedia]

I agree, I can't even tell which way I'm suppose to answer that question lmao.

 

[ndayday]

It was a snarky answer to BSP's question. Sorry for the confusion!

 

[Pachinkosam]

Lets go to wikipedia
i heard they put fake information

 

[Wikipedia]

It just sounds like a question my girlfriend would ask to try to confuse the heck out of me in a fight or something.

 

[BlueXenon]

Is it possible to get a name change? I think I have a good reason

 

[ndayday]

Name changes are only available through premium membership:

Yeah, that was fine, but let's not spam this thread.

 

[Ramen King]

Nday you should get this forum changed to 'Information & Battle Center' or something of the like so that it will stand out to people looking for brawls but somehow don't seem to think to look at information first.

 

[ndayday]

Ironically, I'm waiting to hear back from higher staff on a name change right now.
We'll see what happens. :ibwc:

 

[BSP]

Sometimes when I browse on my phone, I see avatars randomly pop up in quote boxes. Is that on my end, or is something else broken?

 

[Gatlin]

It's not on your end, and I have gotten the problem as well. I'll let someone know.

 

[Jimmyfosho]

So I just bought premium for the first time. So usually how long does it take for it to go into effect? Since I'm assuming all I needed to do was order it.

 

[ndayday]

It should be immediate.
Can you see the Disco Room at the bottom of the home page?

 

[Jimmyfosho]

now I can, and cool I just now got the 1-up mushroom.

 

[ndayday]

Ok, cool. :3

 

[Grizzlpaw]

I want to resize a pic and use it in my sig, but for the life of me IDK how.

There is no "upload file" option. Just the picture tool which only takes URL's

 

[ndayday]

Oh man, I never thought this would help but here we are.

If you still need help just shoot me a message.

 

[Grizzlpaw]

Thanks again Dayday! :3

 

[Grizzlpaw]

( Hope I don't get infracted for this :< )


Uhm... I just got done writing a VERRRY long post in the SSB4 Moveset thread...

And when I finally got done and hit "Preview post" to check over it one last time, It ended up asking me to log back in again in order to process the reply.

... and thats when it gave me the nice little message saying "could not prossess submission"

Is there anyway to save the post? Does Smashboards maybe keep a log of posts that got lost upon submission that maybe a Mod or Senator can pull from?

I really don't want to write all that again m(_ _)m

Edit: If it helps any... Here is the link... --> http://www.smashboards.com/newreply.php?do=postreply&t=326189

 

[Claire Diviner]

The link provided does not seem to work. When you log in, do you check "Remember me"? This could help prevent automatic log off. If that doesn't work, then it could be a cookie issue. Unfortunately, there's no way to recover your lost post. The best thing to do is to copy your draft before posting, even if the advice given does work. If any mod or administrator can confirm this, it would help some. If not, then Smash World Forums apologize for the inconvenience.

 

[ndayday]

Yeah, if you're not logged in permanently that could happen. I myself have never lost a post that way but if you go back one page you can usually recover the post.
In any case copying huge posts before you hit "preview" or "post" is usually a good idea.

 

[Grizzlpaw]

Hey, is it possible to get the regular "vibrant" skin on Mobile.

I can get it randomly by logging out, but never when logged in.

 

[ndayday]

It's near the bottom of the page, you have to check "Never use mobile style" and then save your changes. It should let you switch then.

 

[Grizzlpaw]

Thanks again Dayday :3

 

[Schwa]

Is there a directory for smash-related twitter accounts here on smashboards?

 

[Claire Diviner]

There appears to be no such directory on Smashboards.

 

[Los4Muros]

Are there official rules of how to play smash in tournaments or friendly matches. what characteres are allowed, attacks or stages that are considered allowed. I keep trying to find such a list, but can only find the forum rules.

 

[ndayday]

There isn't a universal ruleset anymore, but this (it used to be the universal rules) is a good start:
http://www.smashboards.com/showthread.php?t=301032

What you'll see change from region to region is whether or not MK is banned and stages, but most everything else is pretty settled upon (8 minute timer, 3 stocks, no items is kind of the norm).

If you didn't mean Brawl then here:

[Grizzlpaw]

Is there a way to get rid of the white line above your signature?

It's really bugging me lol.

 

[Gatlin]

I'm afraid not. It's what separates your signature from your post.

 

[BigMilk]

do mods allow a name change? i really would like to change it and not make different accounts

 

[ndayday]

Unfortunately, you have to purchase premium or scrap your current account.
However, I'm willing to help you. I'll send you a month of premium so you can change your name. I'll PM you.

 

[BigMilk]

thanks alot. really appreciate it
