firstly, now i am in the exalted position of being a premium member, i would like to know a few things. First, what are those little stars under my avatar, and how do i switch off the adverts??

My profile, edit options, Miscellaneous Options, tick box no ads.

Then click on FAQ`s on top beige bar, then send me a karma. ;-))

PS, stars are amount of posts, blue boxes are karma, put the cursor on them and all will be revealed, well not all....

Had a look at that location jdr but cannot see a tick box for no ads.

Are you a premium member?

bloody stuupid premium members.think they are betterer than us.

You can also choose not to show yourself has a premium member under your avatar,also you can choose to be invisible ( not have your name shown at bottom of page ).............

I can do that!

Mmmmmmmmm I know.......... Hey I just thought you can have your own photo gallery also..........come on where,s the pics

I like to lurk.

just accept it Matt you are inferior, we are the superior beings

Never!!

ok, next question, i know i'm thick, even though i'm superior, oooh and premium, but how do i use all those reputation points i've got?

please note Matt, i've changed my little blurb on my avatar in case you were in any doubt

I have lost the ability to read lies and falsehoods I'm afraid

but not your ability to write them???
