Things Newbies should know

So, you're a newbie and you're on this page because you have this newbie tag under your name. So you're asking, what does it mean and how the hell do I get rid of it?

Once approved you should post in the game forum you're going to play in to let everyone know you're here. You will find that is a good start to get to know people. Then just start posting in your game forum. Also take note of the titles under peoples names like your newbie account icon. You will see the leaders have these under their names so you can identify who is in charge around here. Warrior Nation™ uses this board as a central communication, so to keep informed on everything going on, be sure to check here frequently.


Forum functions

• Make sure you post your messages in the correct forums or they will be moved.
(No spamming or you will be reset to 0).
• If you cant find something try using the Search.
• Some areas are restricted and only those with proper permissions may access them.
• The ONLY time you may post about your post count is every one thousand posts.
• When testing things out on the forums (ex. Avatar tests, Signature tests) please do your test in an area that will not be concidered a spam. (ex. a post that needs your reply, a reply to a topic. Just keep in mind to post somthing to do with the topic)


What do all the Titles under members names mean?

Click Here to see a complete list. However a brief description is simply the more you post the more ribbons will show up, and the titles you see are for higher ranking members that are leading this clan to victory.


Activity and staying active

Play Games in clan channels and hang out with members, post on the forums and get to know everyone.
• You must recruit 3 good players within a reasonable amount of time once you have raised beyond the intro rank of squire.
• Understand that we do roll call every month and if you do not respond you will be deleted. So you will receive an e-mail each month to the address you used to register with.
• Promotions are made by the second in command of a division and above. Promotions are based from any of the following:

- Good Recruiting
- Active Participation on the forum and/or game channels
- Good game play and team play


Increase and Decrease of Post Counts

As your post count increases you will earn ribbons very similar to the military robbons found on an Officers uniform.

Post counts are based upon how many threads and posts you actually have in the board. They increase everytime you post a new thread or reply to an existing thread.

They can also be decreased if threads, posts or forums are deleted. Decrease in posts occur on a 1-2 month cycle as the board is recalibrated so many times your decrease in post count can be a lot all at once. This is how the board is coded so dont ask for it to change because it wont happen. Only what exists can you get credit for.


How does Reputation work?

Reputation is something you can give and earn between members. It is shown by the green/yellow/red row of squares in member posts and profiles as well the actual numbers are in your profie. You can give reputation by clicking the reputation button within a members post.

Reputation Bars appear as follows:



max positive Max Positive (10000-20000)
max positive Peak Positive (5000-9999)
peak positive Higher Positive (1500-4999)
high positive High Positive (600-1499)
positive Positive (1-599)

negative Negative

(Lowest) positivepositivepositivepositivepositivepositivehigh positivehigh positivehigh positivehigh positivehigh positivepeak positivepeak positivepeak positivepeak positivepeak positivemax positivemax positivemax positivemax positivemax positivemax positivemax positivemax positivemax positivemax positive(highest)

Every member starts with 1 dot.

Current Max number of dots is 26.

You can view your reputation points by clicking the reputation button within one of your own posts or clicking your own name in a post to view your profile display.

There is two key factors in reputation. 1. Reputation points which you earn and 2. Reputation Power which is the amount of points you can give.

Reputation Power
(The number of points you give to others)

• 1 Reputation power every 10 days.
• 1 Reputation Power every 500 posts.
• 1 Reputation Power every 750 reputation points earned.

Your Reputation Power shows in all of your posts.

Reputation Points
(The points you receive from other members)

• New Members start wtih 10 reputation points.
• The points you earn depend on the givers Repuation Power ability.

For example, if Member A has a Reputation Power of 50. They gives you positive reputation, your points go up by 50. If they give you negative reputation, your points go down by 25.

Other Factors

• You must have 10 posts before you can give reputation to others.

• A member can give only 5 members reputation within a 24 hour period.

• If you give someone reputation points, you must give 5 other members reputation points before you can give the same person points again.

• Reputation does not work in Tilly's Cantina.
• Reputation is double in a few unrevealed forums.
• Reputation cannot be given on posts older than 30 days.

You are able to view Repuation Given and Received within your profile found here: http://warriornation.net/Forum/usercp.php

Can I change my username?

Yes, you may change your username once every 365 days. You can do this by accessing your account settings, in "Edit Email and Password" section. You may enter a new username which will also effect your login as this will be your new login name as well. You may change once every 365 days. Once you change it, the option box to change it will disappear until time has elapses for you to do it again.

*Beware - You identity can be lost to many members who will not know who you are. Could result in loss of friends, being overlooked for promotions, so be sure you want to do this before you do.

All name change histories are logged forever.


Why cant I vote on Polls?

You must be a member for a minimum of 30 days before you can create or vote on polls. We do this to stop cheating when running vital polls.


What is VB Code and how do I use it

VB Code is similar to HTML, but offers just a few basic functions, such as hyperlinking, image display, bolding and italicizing.

Complete VB Code list.


Can I edit and delete my own posts

You may edit your own posts at any time. Look for the edit icon on the post to be edited. No one else can edit your post, except for the forum moderator(s) or the message board administrators. A note is generated at the bottom of each post that is edited so that every one knows when a post has been edited.

Only moderators and administrators can delete posts. For those that can, note that if your post was the start of a new topic, deleting your post will result in the removal of the entire topic (all replies after your topic will also be deleted).


How do I use the Buddy List

The address book applies to private messages only. Anyone you add to your address book is stored in a handy location, so that you can easily send the person a private message. You can put someone in your address book by viewing the member's profile and clicking on the "add to address book" link.


What is Recent Visitors

Recent Visitors is a display of users browsing the forums and topics on this board in the past 15 minutes.


Is there any censoring

We do not censor language, however moderators and administrators may move or delete posts that are offensive, contain any serious attacks on members, pornography or any illegal material. We do at times censor certain website URL's.


Is there any popup ads

We do not have or will ever allow popup ads.

The only ads we will every support are small version static ads in conjuction with a google ad gaming criterias or our host.

Not all views expressed in the google ads are WN's views such as cheating or violating any EULA of games. We cannot filter out all the ads which may not be suitable. I would hope WN members will avoid such negative ads if they come about.


How do I get rid of this ugly newbie tag?

The newbie tag will automatically disappear after 10 posts.
