Hello!

Welcome to DemonForums, new member! DemonForums is a growing community that suits everyone. Members of DemonForums are capable of participating in discussions, sharing resources of any kind, sharing or advertising tools & software, learn more about programming, showcasing your artwork, earning credits to unlock a variety of abilities in which you'll be capable of utilizing when reaching a certain amount of credits. We of the community are extremely excited to see you becoming a suitable member of DemonForums and transcending to an active member. Demonforums grants innumerable features that makes us unique in comparison to other forums. For example, did you know we host lotteries? If so, you can participate in Satan's Lottery by earning 100 credits or more!

As a member of DemonForums, you are granted the abilities to customize your profile based on your preferences and likings. You can visit your very own Control Panel by clicking here, which will grant you the ability to customize your profile easily and without difficulty. In addition, below is of which you are capable of clicking that will give you the competence to modify your profile in some particular way to personal expectations;


Edit Profile - Edit Profile is a page that will permit you to change some preferences of your profile externally. From there, you will be capable of specifying your user title if and when eligible, inputting additional contact information (ICQ Number, AIM Screen Name, Yahoo ID, Skype ID, and Google Talk ID), specifying additional information ranging from 'Location' to 'Biography', and entering in optional information such as your date of birth, your website, and optionally specifying whether you are currently 'Away' or 'Here' during this time, from which you are capable of specifying the reason as to why you should be 'Away', and when you would return.

Change Username - If you are a Diamond or Emerald member (if not, you can purchase a membership here.), you are capable of modifying your username whenever you please. Changing your username is effective when you have misspelled your username, interested in modifying your current one, and so forth and so on. Be aware, you are only allowed to change your username 5 times in a length of a 30 day period. For more information, please consult a staff member, whereas they will be capable of assisting you accordingly.

Change Password - As a member of a social website, you will be capable of modifying your credentials. Modifying your credentials, or in specific, your password, is almost the right thing in almost every case. That being said, if you are under the suspicion that a fellow user is attempting to gain access to your account without your explicit consent, changing your password is the right action to permit. While password credentials are essentially the main defence of an account, it is most useful to submit a password that is NOT equivalent with other accounts you may be the owner of, to use a password that is both utilising lower-case and upper-case letters, to increase the length of your password, and to use digits, letters, and symbols when you can. As a personal recommendation, I prefer Dashlane. You will be capable of attaining automatic login for all your accounts with our free password manager. Even on complex logins with two steps or three fields, like bank accounts. No clicks or keystrokes required. Additionally, Dashlane features an automatic password changer; One-click password changes on all your favorite sites. Your weak or compromised passwords are changed online, saved in Dashlane, and available on all your devices. You are capable of Identifying the dangerously weak or reused passwords that are stored in your password vault, and see what accounts hackers may have compromised through your hub that Dashlane features. Generate strong new passwords, save them to your password vault, and autofill them as you browse. Without having to leave the page. Sounds easy? It is. Store top-secret keys to software, wifi passwords, or surprise plans... whatever you like. Keep them safe, private, and accessible to only you, etc.

Change Email - When a member of a social site, you will be capable of modifying your email. The connection between your account and your email will issue you notifications, will allow you to request a password change when you are somehow logged out of your account, and so on and so forth. I cna list numerous benefits in regards to this tool but I'm quite sure that you already understand the general concept of this tool.

Change Avatar - Through this page, you will be capable of changing your avatar. An avatar is the graphical representation of the user or the user's alter ego or character. In this case, an avatar two-dimensional form as an icon in Internet forums and other online communities. Avatar images have also been referred to as 'Picons', or, in other words, 'Personal Icons' in the past, though the usage of this term is uncommon now. An avatar plays a big role in your account's appearance; you should choose an avatar that specifies you in a way that will allow others to take a grasp of what you enjoy. In short, an avatar is a small identifying image shown under the author's name whenever you make a post. Currently, the maximum dimensions for avatars are 140 by 140 pixels, and the maximum file size for avatars is 250 KB. Be aware, those who do not wield a DemonForum membership (Gold, Diamond, Emerald) will not be capable of using a GIF image as an avatar.

Change Signature - Within this page, you will be capable of editing your signature. A signature is a short message which will be automatically appended to the bottom of your posts. In default, smilies are capable of usage, MyCode is capable of using, [img] tags are capable of usage, HTML is not capable for usage, and the maximum length for a signature is 1000 characters at most. That being said, a signature should identify or represent you in some way. The signature module is one of the key elements to your forum account; I encourage you to use it. For an example, feel free to review my signature that is below this post.

Change Userbar Hue - Have you ever noticed that some usergroup images appended to an account may have some different colors rather than the founded color? No? Well, let me show you. Here's a group image, (http://demonforums.net/images/groupimage...ernity.png), and here is another group image, (http://demonforums.net/userbars/214-9a15...1452797078), you should notice that these 2 images have very different colors. While the 1st image was the founded color, users who have purchased a DemonForum membership (you can purchase a DemonForum membership, here) are capable of modifying the color of a userbar, from which you will be capable of modifying the 'Hue' and the 'Saturation'.

Change Theme - As we anticipate one of DemonForums's top notch features, we present a new way to customize the forum to your very likings. -- You can now change the color of the forum to your preferences! Being that we're running on 'Hue' selections, we are aware it may be difficult towards some users whom are unaware of such states, and a solution has been brought to this result very soon.

Change Username Style - As an upgraded DemonForums member (you can purchase a Gold, Diamond, or Emerald membership by clicking here.), you are capable of modifying your username style. In simple terms, you would be capable of changing your username text color and shadow color as long as you have access. Be aware, some text colors are not allowed (#FF0000, #FF1493, #9A00FF) and text colors must be above #404040 or between #000000 and #121212. The tool essentially hinges on BBCode colors. There is also a website that gives a list of BBCode colors, from which you can visit by clicking here.

Edit Options - Within this page, you will be given a variety of properties from which you will be capable of editing to your personal expectations. You will be capable of hiding yourself from the 'Who's Online List' module, editing messaging and notifications preferences ranging from the control of receiving emails from administrators, all the way to the control of automatically alerting you when receiving a private message, and much more. If you're a new user, I recommend you to change your preferences before doing anything.




In addition, there are many other pages you can explore that may give you a certain ability through it. Below is each and every page that DemonForums publicly displays. Be of notice, at some pages, you are subject to wield explicit permission from a staff member. If I have missed any pages of DemonForums, let me know.

Guidelines of DemonForums - As a member of DemonForums, you are expected to be aware of the official guidelines of DemonForums, and expected to act in accordance of the official guidelines of DemonForums. While DemonForums is a place for others to communicate without any relations towards inconvenience, there are some that misunderstand order, which would cause a complication to the members of DemonForums and the website itself. The guidelines will carefully explain every rule and standards you are expected to follow without any sorts of a problem. For more information, or if you're required to attain a better explaining of how a certain rule is performed, please contact a staff member.

Help Documents - The Help Documents would generally give you a certain standard of assistance in regards to instructions of registering, updating your profile, information of the cookies utilized on MyBB, logging in and out, posting a new thread, posting a reply, MyCode -- (a simplified version of HTML), and so on and so forth.

The Staff Team - As you'd guess, this page, in simple terms, will give you the information of how much the staff team consists of, will explicitly give the names of each and every staff team member, and will specify it through the current roles; Administrator, Developer, and Moderator.

Award Requests - The Award Request Section. As you may be aware of, there are tons of awards one is capable of attaining through requirements that are specifically foretold through award descriptions. That being said, once you have completed or feel that you have completed the requirements needed to attain an award, you can simply post within this such forum along with giving the essential information needed to perform a conclusion from the staff team. If you are inconclusive whether you feel you have achieved a such requirement towards an award, you are capable of simply asking a staff team member, whereas they will be capable of addressing everything you need when enduring this such topic.
