| Questions and Answers
I don't have alot questions to be honest.I have read all the rules etc.many times,since I was lurking on here for so long.I think the only question I have, is why a person is not allowed to update anything on their own user profile,untill they have 10 posts.Why does one have to have 10 posts to be able into get their own profile to fill it out in any way ? Thanks for all your help.  | |

Thanks for all your help. | Because the member has to get familiar with the site's rules, and learning how to post and edit, ect. Then, once we've figured that you're a goody you can update and edit.

1. More than 4000 posts
2. No Warnings
3. be a member of the site for at least a year. Quote:

How do you get sorted? by personality?
Also, how do you put up your avatar?

It can take a range of time to get sorted. If you don't get sorted within a few hours, don't become impatient- it takes time for you to get sorted into your house. Besides the mods will sort everybody that takes the quizz so just be patient  | |
