Thinking of signing up? Good. I'm glad to hear it. The first thing you'll want to do is go up to the top of your screen, where you'll see text saying, "Welcome, Guest. Please Login or Register." The word "Register" is actually a link. Click on it.
You will find yourself on a page with various text boxes. I'll explain what to put in them below.
Username: This is the username you'll use to log in. It is NOT the name of your wolf, just your login name. Make sure you remember it.
Password: This is where you enter the password you'll use to login to your account. Make it easy to remember but hard for others to guess--only you will know your password. NEVER give away your password. Ever.
Password (again): Retype the password you entered above. This is just to make sure you didn't make a mistake and be unable to log in to your account.
E-mail: Enter your e-mail here. Yes, it does need to be a real e-mail so that you can receive your activation code and use your account. Don't worry, we'd never send you junk mail, but every moon there is an update and plot details. If you don't want to receive it, you can select "opt-out" from your profile area.
E-mail (again): Put in your e-mail again. This is just to make sure you didn't make a typing mistake.
Hide E-mail: No Yes (Select "yes" to hide your e-mail address from the other users. If you don't want to hide it, select "no.")
Birthday: This can be completely fake. I don't honestly know why proboards wants your birthday. You should make it be 18 or older, though, so the site works, just in case. If you want the day accurate, it can be, too. Remember--what we celebrate is the event of your wolf aging one moon, not the birthday of a member.
Show Age: Check No. Okay? Just...check no.
Security Check: Type in the letters and numbers in the image above. This is to make sure you aren't an automated sign-up thing, but a real person. Or wolf...whatever. Don't bother me. I forgot my tea this morning.
Now you scroll down past the agreement--it's Proboards' agreement, you can read it if you want, I guess--and check "I agree." Click the "Create Account" button, and you've submitted your account!
Next, you'll need to go to the inbox of the e-mail address you entered and open the e-mail. It may be in the junk folder, so look around. If needed, add "nobody@proboards.com" to your accepted people list (or whatever it's called). Click the link it gives you, or type it in if you need to, and your account will be activated! You'll be ready to roleplay! Well, almost.
Before roleplaying here on StoneSayer, you'll need to post a description of your wolf on the Description board. You'll find very specific instructions there. Remember to complete all sections of the form so your wolf can be as detailed as possible!
If you have any questions, please ask them below.
