Message System Commands - Help
______________________________
[J]oin a Forum - Help
_____________________
By pressing the [J] key while on the Main board, you will be
displayed a menu of available forums and asked which number forum
you wish to join.
You may then press the appropriate number and you will be placed in
that forum.
If you press a number of a forum that doesn't exist you will be
told so. If you press the number of a forum you are not registered
in, you will be told you are not registered in that forum.
Handles :
_________
Some forums may allow handles. If the sysop has set up a forum that
allows handles, when you enter that forum and if you have given
yourself a handle, you will be asked if you wish to use it while in
that forum only.
Your "handle" inherits your "parent's" profile so if you have already
read all the new mail, then the R S or R T S commands of the mail
read system will be inoperative. However, you may use the R T command
to read any mail to your "alter" personality. You may also use the
[Y]our Personal Mail command to receive a list of messages left to
your handle.
Note :
If you give yourself a handle while IN a forum that allows handles,
you will still be you and any messages you leave will come from the
real you and NOT your handle unless you REJOIN that forum. After
giving yourself a handle, from the main command prompt simply type
J and the forum number. You will then be asked if you wish to use
your handle.
