| Zimulti / Acomplia Forum - Frequently Asked Questions |
| Why should I register? |
In order to fully utilize the abilities of this forum, the administrator will require that you register as a member. Registration is free, and allows you to do the following:
- Post new threads
- Reply to other peoples' threads
- Edit your posts
- Receive email notification of replies to posts and threads you specify
To register, you will need to specify a username and password, and a valid email address. Entering your email address will not leave you open to 'spam.' The administrator has configured the forum to send you the final part of the registration process by email, so ensure that the email address you provide is valid and working.
You also must enter your full name and your location (city and state/country). Neither your name nor your address will ever appear on the discussion board, or be used for any other purpose. But the request for this minimal information represents our effort to keep this a serious discussion board for serious users, and to try to keep mischievous makers from jumping in with rants and obscenities as they do in many other forums.
You do NOT, however, need to provide the other requested information (occupation, hobbies, homepage URL). These are automatically requested by the message board software we are using, but are not required by the Zimulti Acomplia Report Forum.

| Why was my effort to register declined? |
| Please see the section immediately above. If you did not provide your full name and address, we likely declined your registration. Please try again and include your name, city and state. |

| Does this forum use cookies? |
| The use of cookies on this forum is optional, but may enhance your experience of the site. Cookies are used to enable functions such as showing whether or not a thread or forum you are viewing has new posts since your last visit, or to automatically log you back in when you return to the site after being away for a while. When you register, you will be given the option to 'Automatically login when you return to the site'. This will store your username and password in a cookie, stored on your computer. Cookies will also enable us to email your password to you should you forget it. If you are using a shared computer, such as in a library, school or internet cafe, or if you have reason to not trust any other users that might use this computer, we do not recommend that you enable this. This forum also gives you the option to use a cookie to track your current session, ensuring that you remain logged-on while browsing the site. If you choose not to store this information in a cookie, the session data will be sent through each link you click. Choosing not to use a cookie may cause problems if your computer's connection to the Internet uses a proxy-server and you share links with other users behind the same proxy. If in doubt, we recommend that you select 'yes' to enable the cookie. After you have registered, you may alter your cookie options at any time by changing the settings on this page. |
| How can I change the information in my profile? |
| It is your responsibility to keep the information in your profile up-to-date. You should especially ensure that your email address is kept current. You can alter any of the fields in your profile, except your username. Once you have registered your username, it becomes yours for life. In extreme circumstances, you may request that the administrator change your username, but he or she will require a very good reason to do so. |
| What is the signature for? |
After you have registered, you may set your signature. This is a piece of text that you would like to be inserted at the end of all your posts, a little like having headed note paper.
If the administrator has enabled signatures, then you will have the option to include your signature on any posts you make. If you have specified a signature, then the forum will automatically append your signature to any messages you post. You can disable signatures on a per-post basis by un-ticking the 'Show Signature' checkbox when you compose your message.
You may turn the signature on and off on posts you have already made by editing the post and altering the state of the 'Show Signature' option.
You can set your signature by editing your profile. |
| I lost my password, what can I do? |
If you forget your password, you can click on the 'Forgotten Your Password' link on any page that requires you to fill in your password.
This will bring up a page where you should enter your registered email address, and an email will be sent to that address instantly -- but this only works if your computer accepts "cookies." |
| How do I get a picture under my username? |
These small images are called Avatars. They are displayed below your username on all posts that you make. There are two kinds of avatars: those provided by the administrator and those that you upload yourself.
If the administrator has provided a set of avatars, and avatars are enabled, you may select an avatar that best describes your personality.
The administrator may also have enabled custom avatars, which allows you to upload an avatar image from your computer. |
