Quick Answers & Tips on posting...

1) You cannot have an avatar unless you've reached 100 posts.

2) Use Infranview or other graphics manipulation program to resize your images to the correct size. Avatars should be no larger than 150x150 pixels.

3) You can get free image editing software, and a whole lot more from NO NAGS.

4) HTML WILL NOT WORK IN THE BODY OF THE POST. THE POST RESPONDS TO VB COMMANDS, NOT HTML. ONLY THE SIG USES HTML. If you want to find out what VB commands are and how they work, take the link at the bottom of the page when your posting. The one that says "vb code is on".

5) In regard to anal sex. LUBE LUBE AND MORE LUBE, Try to relax or its going to hurt. Did I mention you should use lots of lube?

6) There really are no dumb questions, but please try searching before you ask. Most likely the question about your having green cum has already been answered in four other threads. If you can't find the answer, then go ahead and post your question.

7) Please try to remember that while you are seeking answers, it might be best if (a) you give as much information as possible, including photo links, video downloads in mpg or avi formats etc, it also helps if you spend a little extra time proofreading your post. PARAGRAPHS AND PERIODS WEREN'T INVENTED TO ANNOY YOU IN SCHOOL.

8) The width of the Literotica input box
does not mean you have to hit the
enter button before you reach the right
hand side of the box. This leads to a
very uncomfortable formatting of your
post, and people thinking you are really
posting in prose.

9) Adults only. If uz start typing and abbrvt'ing every thing, or start by saying "Heya D00dz", we're going to think you're underage and ignore you.

Anyone care to add anything to the list?

So why even bother having a "How to" board then?

Just close the board and leave this as a sticky, then no-one will ever bother to ask a question again

Either that or just put everything as a sticky at the top, as suggested in another thread earlier.

People come here to ask questions because they get shot down so damn fast in the General Board, let them ask, and let the ones that want to answer, answer ... after all that's why this board was put here in the first place.

Great post Bob...loved number 4 ...second time around. hehe

Nicole... of course people can post what ever they want where ever and when ever. Nothing we can or should do about it.

Just had a few thoughts on your post though. First I took Bob's post to be helpful but humorous. Didn't think he was suggesting people stop posting questions. Besides Bob is way too good at answering them, so why should he? Second, I don't think most of us shoot down anyone that's a serious poster regardless of how often we've heard the question. Now trolls are something else Third, even if we never had any of the oft repeated questions I think there are still loads of new ones to ask....just off the top of my head James' question about the emotional after effects after anal was a new take on an old topic. Finally, no matter how good a person's heart is and how much they'd like to help out...it's just hard not to roll your eyes when you keep seeing the same question over and over and over again. God sometimes it's already asked only a few threads down! In those cases I see nothing wrong with posting a link to a previous thread or if it's a newbie informing them there is a search function and it's been asked before, go take a peek. Doesn't mean some people won't decide to answer it again ...just means some of us are trying to be helpful without repeating ourselves.


Actually I like the idea of something similar to the BDSM Library where a lot of topics are listed and if you click on that link you get links to a number of threads where the topic was discussed. It's a great way to educate yourself. Doesn't mean you can't take what you've learned and then ask a question though.

It wasn't my intent to get people to stop posting. Hell the only way you could do that would be to close down the boards.

People are going to ask their question, even if someone sees the first visible post entitled "Why is my spooge blue?", they will still start their own thread about their blue spooge, or offset nipple, or first anal encounter. ANAL ENCOUNTERS! The next FOX Television special!!! When Buttholes turn bad!!!

Anywho I was merely pointing out, more for the benefit of our regulars, some of the more repetitive questions we get, as well as some of the quirks. Like for example, I've seen one long time poster with many thousands of posts, STILL hitting enter when they reached the end of the line. It makes for a truly annoying read.

It was in fun (passing out humor pills to the crowd)

While I realise that so many of the questions asked here are repetitive I personally don't feel that's a bad thing.

There are so many posters who come and go that you are always going to get a new take or answer to an old question.

No, not so fast Nicole, you forgot one other person seems to have all the answers on "How To" everything: https://forum.literotica.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=211226

NOW we can make this post a sticky and shut down the forum.
