Can somebody explain

Post by BC Wench »

Now I'll probably get shouted down here, but you now the symbols on the left hand side of the postings? The thingies in a circle that have little green smiley faces etc? What do they mean? :? Been meaning to ask this for ages.

if you mean the topic icons done think they have a meaning
A person should have an opinion on everything, It becomes tact whether you reveal that opinion or not.

When you're a moderator you can do that sort of thing!! That and censor peoples posts!!!
Moderators have the power to do that!!

Aahh, I feel so much better now as I've sussed out the meanings.

Green smiley face = Help to add to BCC
Question mark = ARC TBC
Star = Somebody is sorting & adding to BCC
Heart = Somebody adding to BCC
Exclamation mark = Not sure about that one

Thanks one and all.
