Perhaps you can mentor me Jano? ROFLOL:D

Jano is a devoted daughter of the Lord (who happens to have sneaked offline while I am posting this), please welcome her as my referral as a new member here at CF along with (myself:wave:).

Ah, ha I have a pilot on board with me now (Jano is a true 'fly girl').;)

Thanks all for your gracious welcomes and any :help: given to us newbies...like changing that title for example...into some of the cute phrases and scriptures I see under one's name. lol. (!!)

Welcome, Flygirl/Jano, to Christian Forums, the little project of Dr. Erwin Loh that has grown into quite a fascinating and large community. Congratulations on making it this far. Your user title can be changed on the CF Customizer. It costs 150 blessings, so here they are.

Perhaps you’ve been lurking for a while or have been here before and have already figured out a bit here and there - like what all those buttons do on the navigation bar at the top, who ChrisBot is, and those particularly ‘dangerous’ forums that always garner so much attention and ‘trouble’ (i.e. heavy moderation and tempestuous debates). Maybe you’re an old-hand at Internet discussion boards. But in case you’re somewhat overwhelmed, now might be a good time to take a peek here: FAQ. These FAQs will explain a lot (though not all) of the somewhat confusing things in the eye-feast of overwhelming CF thingies.
You probably read the Terms of Service you agreed to when joining, but in case you did not it’s a good idea to attempt to read the rules listed here: Rules. I know they’re long and drawn out, may be a bit confusing and subject to various interpretations, but it may help make your journey smoother to familiarize yourself with them.

CF is a huge place and try as we may to be a gentle bunch, I’ve noticed that sometimes it doesn’t take much for trouble to put a ‘kick me’ sign on one’s back, and no one wants to see that for people of good intent. I know it might take most of your day, week, month, or year(s) to become thoroughly familiar with everything; but you should at the very least skim the FAQ outline and be aware of certain limitations like where you can talk about what (especially in the “Christian Only” forums when compared with those “Open to all members”, or those otherwise specifically designated as “open”); when and how you can post pictures/images or post in certain restricted forums; when and where to post e-mail or other links; those ever important faith icons (of which you’ve already had to choose, and will need assistance to change, if desired); how to chunk up on ‘blessings’ (sort of our CF currency) for pets, CF characters and ‘armor’, or games, quizzes, and such; the Private Message system that might pop up on your screen any moment now; what to do with a rogue member or even moderator (eek!); what some of the pesky abbreviations mean that you’re sure to come across (like OP, OSAS, IMHO, TTYL, DTTBOWTBW (don’t throw the baby out with the bath water)), etc.

You’ll notice we have an Intro Sticky by the lovely AngelAmidala: http://www.christianforums.com/t1110956-please-read-the-rules-before-posting-thanks.html, that most forums have other ‘Sticky’ introductions that can often be important to read before posting in that forum, and that some of the more popular threads have little numbers beside them (like “Welcome to all new members (4)”) which means they’ve been continued in further incarnations after reaching a 1000 post limit for each thread.

I don’t mean to take up all of the space in your very own Intro thread, so have a happy journey here at CF, and here are just a few forums that might be helpful in starting. Just click on the links and find a place you like:
CF Announcements (what’s going on around here, what’s not working and why)
Report Bugs (not the crawly ones, you’re on your on with those)
Questions about CF (a jumble of interrogatories bordering on talking with the divine)
Regional forums – Where ya from?
Congregations – What church ya go to?
Chatting with individual Staff members (usually in informal ways of friendship)
Friendship Court (no pretzelizing allowed)
Face the Board (which is ‘open’ to all members to ask YOU questions)
Recovery (non-professional help with particular life struggles)
Outreach to non-Christians by Christians, seeker prayers and help from Christians, etc.
Edification (Christians Only) Blogs, Prayers, Testimonies, Advice
Help with creating a CF Homepage (a newish feature of CF)
How to become a site supporter (and financially help this ministry)
Help with IRC (Internet Relay Chat)

Feel free to contact the New Member Intro forum moderators or other Staff (the people with the little boxes with a letter by their name) with any questions. They are volunteers here and may not always have ready answers, and though they are flawed humans and may often be rather busy with other things (some of which may sometimes be a bit upsetting and flavor their response times and forms) patience and kindness will find that they can usually point you in the right direction. There are a variety of ways to contact one, and usually it’s best to find one who is currently on-line and ready to help, and one who has some responsibility in the forum where you’re posting. Perhaps the quickest is to click on their name and then look for their Private Message (PM) link (If you wind up on their home-page, this should be quite a ways down in the left column).

To see a full list of forums click on "Christian Forums" in upper left hand corner. I hope these links are helpful to you.
Be blessed and best wishes,

- Ciborium (kib)
