Hi Richard
Thanks to you and all the others that have welcomed me onboard. One thing I was wondering about is all these stars and titles and small bars that some of you have after your'e nickname. I can see that I've got "Hi I'm new" so I assume it is some sort of rank. Anyway what's a moderater? Sorry about the stupid questions but this is all new to me. How the hell am I going to get any model building done when I'm here, even worse coz I can only type with two fingers!!

Sorry for the late welcome Skuta. I see you are already enjoying your time here so no need to say that. I hope you can share your model building with us, and of course if your ever stuck feel free to ask as many questions as you like and someone will be able to answer or point you in the right direction!

these "stars" dont really mean much. you currently have 2 and "Hi I'm New", i think after 10 posts it goes up to 5 stars and "Scale-model Member"

The guys with "Moderator" under their name...are moderators. (you will also notice their names are in red and not black like other peoples. Moderators moderate the site, they make sure nobody is being nast or posting inapropriate posts. they can also move posts and delete them. John is the founder/webmaster/head honcho/boss/guv...what ever you want to call him. his name is in Blue and has "Founder" under his name


Founder - John

Moderators - Wonwinglo, Bunkerbarge, Bluewavestudios and Adzam.

this is a nice system as some forums you have to post over 100 just to become a "frequent poster"

you will aslo notice under your personal information on the left hand side under Visit Skuta's Galley (for example) its says Posts: xxxx (how many time you have posted on the forum), Thanks xxx (how many times you have thanked people for their posts), Thanked xxx in xxx Posts (how many times you have been thanks, and in how many different posts)

hope this little run-down of how it works helps!

once again...welcome to the forum!!!

Richard.W
