Forum FAQ and Q&A
This thread is designed to help people with the forum transition by answering questions as best I can. I may not have answers to everything, or the relevant information to provide an answer for certain things, but if I can provide solutions, then I will do so.

Why is there a permanent captcha system required for posting?
The captcha system is an anti spam security measure and is NOT permanent. I don't have a timescale/post count/etc for when it disables, but it DOES disable.
Where the heck is my thread?
Post in the I lost a thread... thread,,, and I will do my best to find it for you, unless you can find it using the search function beforehand. All threads have been migrated, so your topic/thread is not lost.

Where is the "My posts" option?
If you go into settings at the top of the forums, you will see any new posts in threads you have subscribed to. You have various options to receive an email update for replies as well, or it can be set to control panel only and will only show up when you click settings. You can also select "My subscriptions" to access these threads, even if there are no new responses in them. Posting in a thread should auto subscribe you, though you can also manually subscribe when viewing a thread.
