They're just a fun thing to mark things you've done on the forums. They're not used for anything really.

Ok, I see upload files now. Thanks!

Sorry if this has been asked, but what are the points for? Thanks.

What's up with the Yoshi sprite in the banner? I'm on mobile if that matters.

They are just for fun. Things like post count, like count, join date, etc apply to the amount of points you have.

I checked on my computer and phone but did not see a yoshi anywhere, unless someone else has the problem, could you possibly take a snapshot of it?

Hi there welcome to SWF

Go ahead and check out your Regional Zone to see if there are any tournaments going on in your area~

Ah I see! Thanks much! Just making sure, cause I saw nothing of a shop on this forum.

Man, is there a rule against manually coloring your whole post? I'm really, really glad that there's an option to hide custom colors, but people still ""dodge"" this for reasons beyond me.

 

[Sari]

Sorry if this was mentioned somewhere else but I had a question. I'm thinking of asking some people here a big question about which type of 3DS I should get, though I also want to have a poll. Should I ask my question in the 3DS thread, or am I allowed to make a new thread about my question in the NintenZone?

Nah, there's not. Sorry.

It'd be best to just ask in the 3DS thread. There's also a few threads about 3ds choice in the SSB4 3DS boards where you could ask/weigh others opinions.

Ok, thanks. I have another question:

Someone made a character thread on someone but failed to go in depth (and mods said that if he didn't they'd lock it, and so far they haven't for about a month). Would it be ok for me to create a new, more detailed thread on the character (and possibly merge the old one into the new one)?

 

[Amiibo Doctor]

If I found a leak that I haven't seen posted about anywhere else, where do I post it on here? It's for SSB4.

I posted it on my blog, at

That'd be fine. Let a mod of that section know.

I answered you in the PM you sent so I'll just quote repeat:
http://smashboards.com/threads/smash-4-social-thread-3-0.366060/page-33 and ask for opinions first, maybe our detectives can enhance ENHANCE!

 

[pichupal]

Is there anyway to submit things to be considered for the news section? NoA is doing an eshop sale similar to Europe, but I feel like a topic about it in the Smash 4 threads is out of place.

There currently isn't. Consider contacting the editor in chief, @The Derrit for now imo.
I'll also add that I brought up this in the staff room and from what I've seen we all agree a news tips thing would be awesome, so perhaps we'll see it soon? or someday? I don't know.

 

[obeymalleo]

Can someone tell me how to put the characters I want to main in Smash 4 under my signature please?

Edit: Never mind.

 

[T-Donor66]

Hello. I just made a Gif on a website called Imgflip. How do I put it in my signature? Thank you!

Edit: Never mind. After playing around a little i figured it out.

I can't unsub to premium. When I go to paypal it says," The unsubscribe button you clicked is invalid" or something like that. Can I get some help to cancel this?

Are you talking about the 'Cancel Subscription' button when you go to "Account Upgrades" on Smashboards malfunctioning? I asked, and was told that you can also cancel through Paypal's payment tab, alternatively.

I checked all over paypal and I couldn't find anything

Ah interesting. Try pm'ing any administrator about the issue. Maybe you can forcefully be taken off of premium with their super admin powers.

 

[ndayday]

You have to do it through paypal, believe me its there. Go to your paypal and find Xyelot LLC, click details. There is an option to cancel the subscription there.

 

[_Keno_]

I've been trying to change my name (to "Keno") after getting Premium, but the only thing I could find said to message Virg, but I got no response.

Name changes are done in waves, usually about once a week/once every 2 weeks.

How do I invite people to a group?

Thankss~

Group Tools -> Manage Group Members

then an "invite member" text box will appear under the current members list.

 

[dimensionsword64]

For some reason, every person I've PM'd recently either just hasn't replied, or I can't see their replies.

I've PM'd 4 people recently, and no one has responded. That includes @ Xiivi , who I pm'd with a question about moderating.

But I wasn't even applying yet. I was just asking a question about moderation applications.

I was pretty much holding off on all of the many PMs I got haha before doing a big batch response when I had time to sit and read everyone's stuff individually.

[dimensionsword64]

Why did you take out friends?

 

[Gatlin]

Why did you take out friends?

Sometimes when updates happen to the site and such, the friends list disappears. It should come back though soon like it usually does, intact. Hopefully :D

 

[Sari]

Sorry if this is a dumb question, but how do you join a group?

 

[ndayday]

Sorry if this is a dumb question, but how do you join a group?

Do you know if it's invite only? if it is you may have to talk to group owner to send you an invite.

 

[Sari]

It seems every group I find is invite only. Do you know any groups that anyone can join?

Also would it be ok if I made an Animal Crossing group, and if so, could I include a section for trading items?

I don't know of any. But yeah i guess that's the problem then.

and yes.

Ok thanks.

Probably my last question about groups, but how do I invite people into a group I made?

 

[Gatlin]

From within the group click on "Group Members"

which will take you to a complete list of members page, which will also unlock an "Invite Member" text box below the avatars of the members on the right side of the page.

 

[HitokitiBattousai]
