We will be updating questions and answers on a regular basis.
- Why are some Forum folders grayed out while others are blue? Colored folders indicate that new posts have been added since your last visit.
- What do the red dots before and after a screenname indicate? When a user name has a red dot before and after, it means that individual is on line. If they have listed their AIM, MSN or ICQ information in their profile, you may be able to instant message them.
