Realizm - Realizm - May 30, 2015

Archive Member Agreement Wrote:I, Realizm, agree that I may not open other member's Student Program Training Threads. Nor will I discuss the contents of my, or other members, SPT questions with anyone. By breaking these rules, or other rules set by group leaders, will result in my removal from Archive and a permanent blacklist.

Why you joined Archive?
I joined to contribute and see what the group had to offer. I knew xadamxk would do something with the group to really try and contribute to HF and I wanted to be apart of that.

How you feel about learning site policy?
I'm fine with learning more about the site policies. The more I know the better.

How much you already know about site policy?
I feel like I know most of the HF's policies fairly well, though if I am ever confused or forget something then I look it up.

Hahaha yeah I just noticed that we have quite a few Writers in here as well xD

Yes I understand the rules and feel very comfortable using those resources, but are we allowed to use other sources such as the Help Docs? Even though some of it is fairly out dated, a lot can at least be taken from it and is more "official" than a non-authority member's thread such as an Ub3r

Oh sorry I was camping this weekend and was only on my phone. I recognized the threads except for this one but wasn't sure if it was just my phone not loading the page or something with bad service lol.

Everything you need to know about Hack Forums

^Not working and I realize why now that I quoted your post xD

Also, 3p1c should be orange, because they can't be white xD

Question 5
What do the following terms (relating to HF) stand for/ mean?
  • "OP"
  • "RF"
  • "PM"
  • "PP"
  • "SRPP"

    • PM, short for 'Private Message', is a messaging system built in to Hackforums. The system is very similar to emails, but on-site so nobody ever has to know your private contact information.
  • PP Description:
    • PP, short for 'PayPal', is an online transaction handler. You may link your credit/debit card and/or bank account to your personal PayPal account in order to buy and sell things online.
  • SRPP Description:
    • SRPP, short for the Science, Religion, Philosophy, and Politics forum. In this forum, you can discuss any of the four things listed in it's name. Debates often take place in this section.

Prestige is a statistical number created by a mathematical formula based on your member stats. An exact formula is still unknown and has yet to be released. Though if you are interested, the user xadamxk has created a thread solely dedicated to finding the formula and has gotten the calculations down to a maximum of 3 numbers off from your actual prestige. You can find the thread by clicking here.

Oh my bad, that's an official quote from it lol. I didn't even think to link it and idk why either...

The HackForum's Twitter: https://twitter.com/hackforumsnet

The HF Twitter is used for updates, news, and anything Omniscient sees fit to tweet about. You can find the official release thread here.

I try going to it and it just shows up as a 404 error page. I thought it had been removed... maybe I need to delete my cookies.

EDIT: Yeah, it's working now lmfao. And just when I thought I was on a role for doing good lol 🤦‍♂

The Admin user Factor8™ is in charge of managing HF accounts.

How many posts until a thread is 'hot'?
A thread is considered a 'Hot Thread' once it receives 100 or more posts.

How many posts until a thread auto-closes?
Threads do not auto-close. Omni will not add this feature as there could be tutorials, helpful threads, etc.
