Why? How to? Moderators are directly involved by the OTN team mainly to beat spammers.

OK, so moderator role defined by the RTO and frequent external users are not allowed. Let me know if my assumption is wrong.

I just wanted to say that some members of the forum were asked by people in the RTO to be moderators and help, originally to remove spam.
Take a look at this thread:
Who decide to choose the FORUM ADMIN?

IMHO, too mods would be not so productive, I think that there are enough mods in the world to cover a light of day.

    Beware of scammers on the adobe forum-

    Hi everyone please note,.

    I was faced with a problem so I contacted the forum and had a nice person who tried to help me.

    Then, later, I had a person who contacted me saying that they were "Live desk hep" asking me to download Skype so that they can help me. I downloaded it because I thought it was authentic, and then they ask for my username and password for my account, while asking what the problem was, I was facing.

    I thought it was a bit suspect. They offered to download me CS 6, which is apparently compatible with OS X 10.10.5 but told I need to pay fees but with a discount.

    They conducted them negotiate a rate with me as if we were in a flea market negotiate a price. We settled on a £35 - they sent me a Bill and then asked for my zip code, which they then found the nearest Western union for me and told me to pay this way. -Which means that I would send these people in cash.

    Therefore, I timed it on what they grew too and told them there is no way I am paying like that.

    After talking to adobe by phone customer service today and they confirmed with me that this is a scam!

    People please be Ume - they found me on this forum and they you will find on this forum

    Thanks for pointing this scammer of Skype

    I reported this in the forum moderator and the Live Help Desk user has been disabled by an employee

    I'm lost here.  I left a message in the discussions [4 years PS E7 problems developing -?] and he was moved to the "Forum elements. Yes, I was wrong. I come here and there are about a dozen question back 4 hours and no sign of page numbers.  Not a total newbie to forums, but I'm lost.  8-)

    I searched "4 years PS E7 developing problems...» "and couldn't find even in Discussions and notifications that it has been moved.  I would have thought that a search would have led me on the Forum of items with notes as to how much, if any, had read it.  This is what I'm used to.  As I said, I'm lost.  Sorry if it should be obvious, and if I look like a whiner.

    Oh, so it has been moved, but still listed in the Discussions?  You could say that.

    When a thread is moved, it will also appear in its place of origin for a short period in order to allow the original poster to find.

    I didn't know where it was posted.  I'm not a moderator and couldn't have moved it.  Only, I went to your profile and watched your activity:

  • I posted a new discussion here but, this isn't refrected in the forum.

    I posted some threads here.

    I tried to review my post of my profile of OTN community.

    But I could not find them.

    Posted discussion is moderated by a person and is is not reflected the forum in real time?

  • Show duplicates in the forum

    Hello

    This is regarding Expdp programmer mode of opening of the Redo logs objects I had a problem with export and DBMS_SCHEDULER. I was not sure whether if a DBA specializing in export will be able to resolve the issue or if a person specializing in the Planner will be able to solve the problem. Also I wanted to contribute to my colleagues from these two specialists on the issue above. Kindly permit an exception to the rule of dual display in this case.

    Sometimes I can't find the answers to my questions. For example a query about the SCHEDULER, RULESETS, RULES was published by me in forum Planner in August. I had to move to the PL/SQL forum as there was no answer to my query. In such scenarios, I can't drop the initial thread as it was mainly a SCHEDULER implementation using PL/SQL.

    Kindly tell me the rule regarding issues affecting many concepts. We may have questions about all the concepts involved in the issue.

    Hope it makes sense.

    Thank you very much

    I guess you're going to decrease the chances of getting your thread locked if you explain in your first sentence why is it that you post the same question in more than one forum.
    Several messages in the forum even usually lock themselves or at least some of the responses indicating that multi - display is not the appropriate label.
    But asking and explaining why you post the same question in several forum should consider at least to be authorized by a moderator, IMO.

  • CS6 must Forum Moderator

    Hello
    I am Moderator of ' community . Help to France" and I have more creative CS4.". I wonder if Adobe has year upgrad to the moderators because I don't don't know how to moderate a version if I do not know.
    without upgrad, retire as moderators because I'll be useless ...

    I give the floor Adobe France without solution and tchat with Adobe through the pages of moderators also not resolved ...

    Hi Jy,

    As a matter of policy, Adobe does not free software updates to the moderators of the forum. Sometimes confusion arises when a moderator of the forum is also a member of a preliminary version or another program of Adobe community, such as the Adobe Community Professional program. For more information on the CPA program, please visit: http://www.adobe.com/communities/professionals/

    The community moderators are experts in products both inside and outside Adobe (authors, designers, developers, trainers). These volunteers monitor and facilitate discussions, moderate comments and content and have the power to improve the overall quality of the content and to help everyone to succeed. There is more information in the Community framework of the Moderator: http://www.adobe.com/communities/guidelines/#About_the_community

    Thanks again for your contributions CS4 tutorial. We are always looking for potential new leaders of the community. If you are interested in renewing your role as a moderator of the community for a particular product, please contact the administrator of the European forums, or respond here and we will have him follow up with you.

    Adobe Community Help & Team Learning

  • Edit a post on the forum... How?

    I posted a question on the wrong forum. I did not discover this until 2 days later.

    How can I get into my post and assign it to a new forum?

    Only a moderator can move to a post in another forum. So if you don't get an answer in a day or two, just re-post in the right forum.

    Otherwise, to change the content of your messages, log on to the forum and move your mouse pointer to the right of the blue box where it says sent by... Black arrowhead should appear. Hover over the arrow until the menu goes down with Edit option.

    BTW: Do not click this arrow in the blue box. Who will just take back you to the top of the page you are on, instead of the menu.

  • How issues disappear from the forum?

    How issues disappear from the first forum?  Since I have a GTX 480 and I am interested in learning how a significant official support for reading of mercury's, pirate vs support, I had entered a question to solicit feedback from the owners of GTX 470 graphics cards.  A person with almost 12,000 jobs railed against my post, I answered, and you'll find is no longer my post.

    Is there a problem with the forum software?

    Steve,

    Don't remember not this post, but then things were pretty fast and furious in the forum of CS5.

    Now, there are two ways that the messages may disappear, or appear to do so:

    (1.) a moderator can block a thread or can turn things in a new thread. This just happened today, but the two sons of original are always there, just not separated.

    2.) adobe admin can delete a thread (do not think that a MOD can do - only lock, move or branch?), but would probably not, unless it is obviously spam. Even in this case, the thread probably would remain, with all URLS "[Edited by Host]" or similar.

    (3.) a moderator can move a thread, saying if it was posted on the forum of CS5 and it was really regarding CS4, or earlier. This can also happen, if a thread is best suited for the Hardware Forum (this would be my first guess in your case), or in the living room, if I managed to slide too far off-topic. See the Hardware Forum, because that's where I expect such a post to be.

    4.) when Adobe went with the new software, many old messages went to heaven bit that I highly doubt that anything like that happened here. We lost a few positions when there was a major update of Jive, but it has not been an update in ~ 8 mos.

    5.) there is often no messages, if they have access to the forum by e-mail instead of a browser. I guess with some flow, which could happen also, but not sure.

    Good luck and check the Hardware Forum.

    PS - usually, when Jeff, Jerry.K, Curt, et al, move a message, they try to make the poster to know. Yet, with CS5.0.2 hitting and all traffic, perhaps they slid upward, ran completely out of time, or tried and failed in the notification. Most likely, if one of the MOD he stirred, they will jump in full and report making. They are great, though sometimes the details could be lost on a busy day, especially if they're trying to out of town to be with their families on a holiday (US) weekend to indulge in their "afterlife." Alternatively, they could be packing to avoid a hurricane - Earl.

  • What is the correct way to ask for help with the forum, rather than product, questions?

    I can't find the right way to ask a question about the forums themselves.

    PAGulley said

    I can't find the right part of the forum to ask questions about the forum itself and its features. I wonder what the right place and the way is to get help with the forum system itself. I can find the place to ask questions about specific Mozilla products very well.

    Look up where it says contributor tools and select Contributor Forums. Make sure that you scroll to the top or you'll get a bar with different links instead,

    The forum is https://support.mozilla.org/forums where you question would be better in the SUMO community discussions.

  • Despite the solution given in the forum, I can not .jpg listed in the type of listing file for how to do in the face of various types of files.

    Whenever I click on a link, .jpg, the image opens in Firefox. I want to use another program, but I can't change because .jpg does not appear in the list of file types for which you can specify actions. I know that there is an answer in the forum of Firefox, but I never get the option box that asks me what to do with the file, so I can't go to the box 'do this for all these types of files. Help!

    JPEG images are considered normal browser content and do not generate an open/save/Cancel dialog box, unless the site sends a special header indicating that it should be treated as a download (disposition = attachment instead of inline).

    To Save the image, your best integrated option is to right-click on the image and use save picture as or if it's a link to an image, right click the link and save the link under.

    But to start the image in a different program, I can't think a built-in feature that can do this, then you probably need an add-on.

    I see for example, there are extensions to open an image in PhotoShop or Fireworks:

    If these programs are not relevant, if all goes well there is a more general purpose extension on the site that fits your needs.

  • What is happening with this new layout of the forum?

    Apple-wake up!  What happened to the layout of the traditional forum?  Is it broken?  People come to a forum looking for information and seek answers through the previous posts.  The new provision allows only one person to see more than a few hours of posts on a page (as perhaps the last 10?)!  What the devil?  Guess what?  Forums = information.  The new presentation of the forum = white space, and white space is not equal information.  If I wanted to meet someone post I don't know yet where to start because I couldn't find it!  In a mater of minutes at the station is restored to Page 2, never to be seen again.

    Basically, the new presentation of the forum *.  Why it was changed?

    Look at these two tips of using help in the management of the layout

    Stylish for Firefox, stylish for Chrome, elegant for Safarior elegant for Opera. Everything is free, by the way.

    I would start with "Minimal", which I've already committed to an elegant "style."

  • no place on the forum to select the parameters

    Having posted a question about firfox sync, I'm now faced with the message interface.

    When I post the question, there is no facility to follow this thread - as there ALWAYS on ALL the forums where I have never participated.

    However, when I posted the question, there are menus for TOOLS of the ISSUE and the DETAILS of the QUESTION. THESE ARE NOT USEFUL.

    The second is in QUESTION TOOLS STOP EMAIL UPDATES.

    ?

    Is - this Infocourriel average by me, by others, or this "update" is actually a euphemism for be warned of a response to my question?
    Just in case someone is not clear, "email updates" is not a term used on ANY forum I've ever used.

    The order of the day on this list, it is to SUBSCRIBE to FEEDS.

    ??

    This means a food about this post? Or a general flow of questions? Or answers? Or a general feed of Mozilla on - well, who knows? The people creating this interface seem to be severely terse with their information.

    Please would someone

    (1) let me know what all this means

    (2) rewrite the interface

    Thanks in advance - on these two points.

    I'm sorry that you have problems with this forum. I have addressed some of the same issues you mentioned, back during the phase of beta testing until this forum went live--back in 2006-2007. IMO, that 'us' think is false or is different from the other forums we used will not be "fixed" - a set of standardized software forum is not used here, it works as expected by the developers of this custom built Mozilla software.
