This is the Help page for our Bulletin Board.  Much more help is available on the Bulletin Board itself in the form of FAQs and Forums where you can post your questions and read the discussions already posted.  There is also a search tool which is very useful for finding pertinent messages.

 

Bulletin Board Guide - PDF

Register : We recommend that you register which is very easy.  Enter a user name (this is the name you'll be known by on the Bulletin Board), your e-Mail address and a password you'll use to log in. That's all you need to do.  Don't forget to press "Submit" at the bottom of the registration page.  If you want to be a Forum Moderator, you must be registered.

FAQ:  On the Bulletin Board, click FAQ for Frequently Asked Questions about the Bulletin Board.  This is a useful help file but if you can't find the answer, just post a question on the "Web Site" Forum under the General category. 

New Topic:  On the Bulletin Board, you click the "New Topic" button to start a new topic.  The new topic window will appear and you write your message and click "Submit" to post it.

Post Reply: On the Bulletin Board, you click the "Post Reply" button to reply to a message.  The "Post the Reply" window will appear and you then enter a message and click "Submit" to post it.

Log In:  When you enter the Bulletin Board click "Log In", and a screen will appear where you enter your user name and password.  If you have not registered, log in process in not needed.

Avatar: Once registered, you can attach an Avatar to your Profile so when you post a message, your user name and Avatar will appear automatically.  You may also add a special signature (message) to your profile. 
(This is my Avatar ... cool, isn't it?)

Profile: On the Bulletin Board, you click "Profile" to change your password, e-Mail address, Avatar, signature and other settings on your profile.

The structure for messages on the bulletin board is:

Category (Bridge)
   Forum  (Bridge conventions)
   Forum  (Hands)
   Forum  (Bidding)
       Topic 1 (Weak 2 bids)
       Topic 2 (Leads in suit contracts)

Click on the Category to show the forums and click on the Forums to show the Topics (messages) posted.  You may post a new message, reply to a message posted or just read the posted messages . 

New Forums will be added as needed; hopefully we'll have volunteers to act as moderators in each Forum (Please volunteer here)
