1:- Sure I can log into BBB…….. what I cant do is change my password.
2:- I have an alternate ID…… how do I log in and set it up when BBB logs me in automatically?
3:- how do I delete already read messages?.. they keep coming back.
4:- I’m dumb… be gentle.January 11, 2005 at 1:06 pm #111673Jeff HesterKeymaster1) You are sure you went to the setting under “My BigBlueBall->Change Email & Password”?
2) Did you create the alternate ID before or after the BBB forum change? If it was before then you need to do a password reset by going here https://bigblueball.com/forums/login.php?do=lostpw
To login with that ID simply log out of the one you are in and that’s it.3) To delete already read messages simply click on the Private Messages (In My BigBlueBall) sub menu and go to inbox, once there select each box corresponding to the message you want to delete, then go to Select Messages, Scroll down to delete, and hit Go, and that should do it. It works fine with me.
4) There’s no such thing as a dumb question (Well thats my teachers would tell me)
January 11, 2005 at 4:41 pm #111674Jeff HesterKeymasterThe key to navigating the new forums is the forum navigation menu:
- My BigBlueBall – Your user control panel. Manage subscriptions, edit your profile, change your password, signature and avatar and more.
- FAQ – Frequently asked questions — a good resource for questions about how to use these forums.
- Members List – View a list of members or search for members.
- Calendar – An events calendar. We haven’t starting using it much yet.
- Chat – Links to our java-based IRC chat.
- Arcade – A diversion for those times when you need one.
- New Posts – shows all new posts since your last visit. Note that there is currently a one hour timeout on your visit, so if you don’t logout, but you leave the website and return within one hour, the unread marks will not change.
- Search – You can do a quick search or an advanced search.
- Quick Links – Handy links to subscriptions, buddy list and other frequently used features. There is also an option in here to “mark all forums read.”
- Logout – This is where you can sign-out so someone else can sign in.
Edit your password through My BigBlueBall, mark all forums as read through the Quick Links, and use the Log Out link to sign out of the forums (allowing someone else to sign-in).
