Hoidcycling Posted July 1, 2023 Report Share Posted July 1, 2023 I have been a fan for so long! I just never knew there was a place to talk about the books lol. Reading alone has been fun but I can't wait to learn all the things I have missed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Argenti Posted July 1, 2023 Report Share Posted July 1, 2023 Hi! I'm soooo excited about SP3 too! Are you here for theories or just seeing everything the cosmere? Heres some tips and tricks for the forum in case you don't know them (I robbed @Treamayne for this XD) Spoiler You can find the Spoiler Policy here; it's just nifty to have At the bottom left of a post you will see a "+" icon, a "Quote" link, and (your posts only) and Edit and Options tools. On the bottom right you will see an up arrow. The Up Arrow is how you thank people or "like" a post The "Quote" link is exactly that, when you click it the quote will be added to the reply at the bottom of the thread wherever the cursor is So, if you have already started to reply before you decide to quote you can then add the quote before or after your text depending on the cursor location when you click "Quote" The + icon is multi-quote. As you read a thread, if you want to quote multiple items you click that for each post As you click +, you should see a toaster pop-up on the bottom right of the browser window showing how many quotes you will have They are added in the order you click the + icon, not in the original post order, so you can set the order of quotes for your reply When you are ready to reply, click on the toaster pop-up and it will take you directly to the reply section and add the quotes automatically Finally, you can also highlight a small section of a post and, when hovering over the highlit portion, click the "Quote" button that pops up. Also note that you can move quotes after they have been added to your reply. For example, you add a quote and realize there are no empty lines below it for you to type - so you can hit "enter" before the quote to make an empty line then when you hover over a quote you will see a 4-way arrow at the top-left that you can use to drag the quote up (or down) and move the quote to before the empty line. . . Use the Edit link to make changes to a completed post or add information to your post if it is the most recent (to avoid double posting) Quote buttons will still send a quote to "Reply" if you have a post open for edit, but it is easy to cut/paste the quote to the Edit box Editing the first post in a thread allows the thread-creator to edit the thread title. Editing allows you to add a reason for the edit (Spelling and grammar (SPAG), formatting, clarification, new information, etc.), but it is not required. Next to Edit you will also find an "options" dropbox, you can use this to hide your post if you want to remove it after posting At the top of a post you will find "Report Post" Use this if you do accidentally double-post (sometimes it's the browser or a slow link that causes a double post) - just leave a message that it was an accidental double post and the Mods can fix it. If it was the first post of a new thread that doubled, they usually can merge the threads if they both have answers, so all of the content is retained. (also btw you posted this 4 times, you can hide the others. I presume the forums bugged out and claimed it couldn't post?) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reading alone has been fun but I can't wait to learn all the things I have missed. Welcome to the forums. Lots to see, read, and learn. May we ask what, if any, you have not yet read (besides unpublished material) in case we need to avoid spoilers for any questions you may have? Also, you may find this thread useful (even if you have read everything) since it discusses using the Coppermind and The Arcanum. 1 minute ago, Argenti said: Hi! I'm soooo excited about SP3 too!
