How Do I Go To My Profile Page?
You may click on your name in any thread you have created or posted in or click the link of your name found in quiz(s) you have made.
Why Can I Not Set Up/Change My Profile Picture?
If you are in the "Newbie" status you will not be able to set up a profile picture until you reach the "Novice" status. After you reach "Novice" status may go to your profile, click on a blue link "set your picture" and voila, your profile picture is done :)
If you already have a picture but are unable to change it, I think it may be because of the device you are using (phones, tabs, Ipods etc). I suggest using a computer to change your profile picture and see if it works which I am sure it will
How Do I Log Out Of My Account
Go to any thread and click on a link in blue that says "Click here if you are not **" with ** being your name. The link is found just above the post box before you post into threads
Why Am I Unable To Post Links And Pictures?
You must be a "Junior" status or higher to be able to post links and pictures. If you are a "Newbie" or "Novice" status it is likely to say [no urls] Keep in mind that directly posting your email is going to be blocked for all users. If you must post an email, post it in spaces eg. "gotoquiz @email.com
Avoid posting your emails here when possible due to the possibility of having your account hacked

My Progress Bar Decreased... Why?
I don't know whether it is some type of glitch, but at some point for every user, their status bar decreases, usually happening in the early stages of the statuses between "Novice and Junior". Don't mind it and carry on :)
However at times your progress bar may decrease due to excessive use of foul language.
Deleting quizzes linked to your account also greatly decreases your progress bar and may even decrease your status! Be sure of the quizzes you intend to delete
How Can I Reach The Next Statuses Quickly?
The main way is to create quizzes such that they make it to the front page. Quizzes that make it to the front page give a small boost in your progress bar. Creating quizzes alone also give a small boost. Other minor ways include posting in the forums, taking quizzes, commenting and rating on quizzes.
Remember that the higher you move up in the statuses the longer it takes to reach the next status
How Do I Make My Quiz Reach The Front Page?
The quizzes found on the front page are popular quizzes. Hence it is advisable to create a quiz that has a popular theme on this site one such example is the "What Supernatural Powers Do You Have?" quizzes and many more. The more people take your quiz, the more likely it is that your quiz will make it to the front page.
Are All Forums Meant For Chatting?
The main chatting forum is The Lounge forum. The other forums are mainly for help, friendly arguments and criticism. Remember to respect everyone's opinions, no to people are the same :)
Why Didn't My Quiz Make It To The "Newest Quizzes" list?
Remember, hundreds of quizzes are made everyday for the site to filter however some quizzes may take longer to get on the Newest Quizzes list and others may not get there at all. This could be because the quiz was overlooked by the site's filters. Another reason for your quiz not appearing on the "Newest Quizzes" list is that you may have ticked the "This quiz is only for a circle of friends" option when you were finishing off the quiz. By ticking this option, your quiz will not appear on the "Newest Quizzes" list
Best solution is to suspend your quiz for a while then reactivate it. If this does not work, the other only option is to recreate the quiz
How Do I Cross Out Or Bold My Letters When I Post?

Bold letters, do the following... < b > enter text here < / b > (without spaces)
Italics do the following < i > enter text here < / i > (without spaces)

My Quiz Will Not Link To My Account... Why?
At the moment, linking quizzes option is not available just yet. Not sure why...
Am I Restricted To Where I Should Post?
No, you are free to post anywhere you like except threads that say "Private or ** and ** users only" respect those requests and leave those threads alone, everything else is for you :)
Please do not post in threads that the last person to post in was more than 5 days ago as these threads are now considered to be "Dead" threads
Is There A Limit To How Many Threads I Can Create?
Naturally not, but do not create threads one after the other within a small space of time as this will be seen as spamming and could lead to you getting penalized. 1 or 2 threads in a forum is good :) 4 to 6 threads? Not good :(Moderator -
