i have a question about the icons on the side of the threads, some are like a grey, which i now know means they dont have anything new, and some are red, which means new.

but what about the stars, and the ones that are moving? and some are odd shaped, with an exclamation point, and im just curious what they mean...

Ok, I know speculation is supposed to stay in SRC, but I think I have them all figured out.

The star means it's one that you've posted in.
Moving means it's over 5 pages.
The odd shaped ones are called stickies and always stay at the top of the page.

Did I get it right?

At the bottom of the Freestyle RPGs forum index page, there is a nice little legend of what the various message icons mean. Why it isn't on the rest of the index pages, I don't know. It should be on the main Board Index page, at least. (Okay, it's at the bottom of the Gatekeepers Guardhouse forum too, but that's not available to the regular posters.)

Odd, I thought that it was at the bottom of every page...

The key is not below:
The main page
Announcements
Important Threads

POOP

But is below everything else...

strange...
