Frequently Asked Questions about HTMF
« on: March 22, 2007, 08:26:44 pm »

Where's the mainframe?  When can I start hacking?

This site has nothing to do with mainframes or hacking.  It's an inside joke by some of the founding members. 

Feel free to ask us for hacking advice, though, we used to hack the Gibson all the time.

How do I embed a youtube video?

In the URL (address) of the youtube video, copy the last bit -- the ID tag:

http://youtube.com/watch?v=R51K9_t_0v8      In this case, the ID is R51K9_t_0v8

You can post the video by using the following syntax:

[youtube=425,350]R51K9_t_0v8[/youtube]

Where can I read about forum etiquette?

Wikipedia is a good start if you don't know how to behave around here.

To avoid appearing self-absorbed, one should respond to topics started by others more often than starting topics of their own.


Quote
When quoting a previous post, one should only include the relevant portion of that post. Contributors are requested to keep in mind that their audience can likely still see the message they are quoting on the same screen and can read it again if need be.

Lots of questions about behaviour pop up every now and then.  Here's a good  essay on handling disagreement online:
