-If you are posting your own topic and would like to quote. Click on the Quote button (which is the second icon from the RIGHT on the BOTTOM row of the
'Tag Bar' above the the text post area/Smileys).
[glow=red,2,300]Adding icon features:[/glow]

[glow=red,2,300]Moderators and levels[/glow]
-Moderators are people who have control over a message forum. They can remove, alter and move posts in the boards that they control.
-To become a moderator, you have display certain beneficial characteristics. Such as regular useful posts, helping out other members and guests etc.
-Levels: The more a member posts, the higher level (signified by a change in status and amount of stars in your status bar next to your avatar when you post) he can achieve. Higher levels shows the dedication of a poster, and also to some-point, his knowledge, as a result, ultimately the more stars represents his respect, and the respect he/she would be treated in the forum. And as a bonus to members with a high level of stars, there is a hidden room that is revealed to them.
Ok i hope that helps everybody
