I don't know all the answers, but I can tell you that if you have not posted enough items you cannot get into chat. One of the moderators can help you with that. I believe there is a thread about not being able to get into chat that might have this info in it. Also if it is a protected forum (as the ones for different survivor groups) you must have the password. A moderator for that forum should also be able to help with that, too. On each forum there is a list of the modertaors for that area.You can Personal Message one of them for help.

Thanks melsv for your reply, but I can't even find "help" on this site. I did read something about if you don't have 10 posts you can't get into live chat. What sense does that make I don't know!! I came here for support not to play in a chat room. It wasn't easy finding this thread to post.

Don't give up friend, please, I know this place is frustrating at first, but give it some time please!!

Once again, I'm with ya totally!!!

If you wanna chat for support, we should be able to. What kind of posts are they looking for us to make before were "Allowed" to actually chat?

I see there's over 12,000 people so somethings good about this forum! But I sure do wish it was easy &

not so damn confusing. Do you know if theres even some kind of mailbox that lets you know you have a message?

up in the right hand corner, it tells you if you have any new messages in your inbox. Just try to be patient and you will figure it all out. Welcome!

Hi

I am sorry it is so frustrating

If you click on the After Silence loggo on the top of the page you can get the home page which will have a listing of all the different categories. Including help section.

If you have sorted out the PM thing you can do that and if not post here and I will check back again and see if I can help.

Hi again

Also at the bottom of this page you will find a place, bottom right hand corner where it says

"Public welcome" that is a drop down menu that will help you to bounce around the site

Welcome to AS friendofafriend!!

Yeah it can all be a bit confusing to start with..I remember it well!!

If you look at the bottom of the forum pages there is a list of staff types in different colours..e.g moderators,newbie support...click on either of those and some names will come up which if you click on one you will get the persons profile.In the profile there is a communication section where you can click on send a message which will allow you to pm that person with any questions..I know this sounds all complicated..perhaps someone else can put it more simply!!!

As for the 10 posts before getting into chat I think that's just so we all have a chance to get to know you a bit.I've found that normal practice on good forums...most of them require more than 10 posts!!!

Hope that's of some help..navigating everything in the beginning does take a bit of time and getting used to but it is well worth it..this is a great site full of supportive and understanding people

Look forward to getting to know ya

I feel like quite an expert now so please stick with us.
