The Archived Forums - Now Available

**Vanille** · June 15th, 2008, 01:06 AM

Once you get to 1000 posts and 1 year's membership, you can choose a custom title. Options abound, including Latin.

Well, now I'm confused. The greeting I get when I come to the site talks about a shorter time period...

Some of these features are restricted to our dedicated members (>100 posts + >30 days of membership), so if you've been lurking, please come on out and say hi so you can use the forums to their full advantage!

So are you saying that we get even more privileges at the 1000+ posts and one year+ membership mark?

Also... why would Latin in a sig be a problem for people? I thought everyone was familiar with the old "Knowledge is power" saying, and it's fitting for such an informative community as this one. So I'm just wondering why you want it translated? Is there a fear that someone will put something rude in a foreign language in their sig? Just wondering why you requested that.

Thanks again for all the helpful answers, I look forward to learning more about what's what so I can get all settled in comfortably.

Yes, there is more! See this thread for details. (By the way, the 100 posts/30 days in the site heading is a typo. It's actually 100/60 for one level of privileges.)

It's because English is the one language that everyone here knows. LHC is very international, and people from, for example, non-Western backgrounds might have zero exposure to Latin during their schooling. Also, we've recently found with Latin that even in the US what one person thinks is obvious and covered in every high school, another person might not have ever seen before. We just want to make sure everyone can understand the discussions here. Thanks for your willingness to translate. We appreciate it.

Question: I can't seem to find my old hair journal on the archived forums. When I try to use the search function it makes me "log in". Then I log in and it takes me back to the hair journal portion, I try to search, it makes me log in again. .

So, if the search function doesn't work. . which is what I went with-- I used the search function with firefox that searches the entire page for a keyword and went through all 54 pages. Still can't find it. Any suggestions???

You need to log out here before logging into the archives. Did you do that?

**marajade** · October 23rd, 2008, 01:35 PM

I'll try that!

I can't get into the old forums, or my old inbox, can anyone help me out?

Hi Morguebabe, in order to access the archives, you will first have to log out of the "new" LHC, then you can log into the archives. You should be able to see the old forums and access your inbox, although you cannot send/receive new PMs in the archives.

Hey, I joined LHC after the crash, can I have a archive login? I keep bumping into the login request over and over again, I can't even search the archives and they hold plenty of valuable information. I remember seeing a thread where people requested to be added to the archive, but for the life of me I just can't find me. TIA

Perhaps you missed this post.

Oh uh

I can't believe I missed out the opportunity to have access when I saw people asking to be added in real time (thinking to myself "why would I bother the mods now, I'll ask them when I really need it"). It's not just the search function, I keep bumping into the logon massage from various links and that's something that can't be replace with another website. Thanks for pointing out the message.
