???

 

Everyone post your advice for fetuses who feel lost and scared as we speak

 

I was very scared tbqh

 

Dont act like a superman now,everyone was at some point,confused at least "wtf is this" moment we all had it

 

If the response is overwhelming it might become an official thread for OH Newbies every lost soul will find its way in

 

Good idea?

 

 

So lookie back on your fetus days and post any simple or any kinda advice you wish you`d have known then

 

 

Lets help out each other out

For example

My first very simple advice is to get a dp the moment you register.

 

Sig can be postponed,but Dp is mandatory if you want to interact around,its easier for users to remember  you that way.

Dpless users sometimes might seem blandish even before you read their posts,So dps help create a positive first impression.

Some wisdomful  user once  told me that they dont trust Dpless users,as they are often trolls,you don`t want to be associated with trolls ,so Get Dps first before anything else

this is a huge quote from that thread:

 

This is a compilation of all the things I wish I knew when I first started on OH. Things like unspoken rules, practical how-to's and useful threads.

Also, feel free to add anything you found out or edit what I wrote, or use (parts of) my list somewhere else.

  • you can change the theme on One Hallyu (for example if you want a dark background): on the bottom left of this page there’s a button “Change themeâ€

  • In conversation, this doge -> imstupid.png is used to indicate sarcasm

  • the money here (won) isn‘t related to actual money, you can buy items in the market place, but all of them are virtual

  • this thread shows you how you can earn won or lose them very detailed

  • to create a new topic, select the forum that you want to post it in and on the top right side there‘s a button „start new topic“

  • there‘s a limit to upvotes and downvotes you can give per 24 hours (25+,10-)

  • „to neg somebody“ means to downvote somebody

  • „DP“ means Display picture and it's your avatar picture, along with your signature (also shortened to „sig“) you can change it (but it has to fit certain standards)

  • if you‘re a fail at editing like me, you can kindly ask in the "Official resizing, creation, combining gifs/images thread" and a nice person will create a fitting DP/sig for you

  • OP means Original Poster or Original Post, it‘s the first post of a thread, made by the person who started the thread

  • [READ OP FIRST] in the title of a thread indicates that there‘s a lot of information in the OP and there your questions will probably be answered

  • use spoilers if you want to talk about something slightly off-topic

    simply type [*spoiler]write here what you want to appear in the spoiler[*/spoiler] but remove the * symbols

     

  • gifs are always appropriate and mostly appreciated, but memes aren't 

  • link pretty pictures or new content if you want to get upvotes, the idols or groups will be upvoted, and you will get upvoted for your effort

  • don’t expect to get upvotes for things you say or for your opinion

  • don’t present your opinion as an undeniable fact, unless you want to be a troll

  • if you simply want to get upvotes, there’s this thread, where members upvote each other

  • this thread explains how to embed youtube videos, pictures, gifs or other things

  • if you want one of your posts to be deleted, go to the “Ask a mod†thread

  • here the duties of moderators, administrators and other staff on OH are explained

  • if you’re looking for the official thread of a Korean artist/idol/group, there’s the artist thread directory, you can increase search efficiency by clicking ctrl+f and then entering the name

  • everything about Awards (those images below a user’s DP): when and how to get them

  • don‘t expect people to engage in conversation with you if you‘re new – you‘re considered nugu

  • don‘t expect to be quoted

  • sometimes you might get quoted but the user doesn’t add anything to your quote, that happens

  • don‘t expect other members liking to be quoted (some do, some don‘t)

And finally all the big and helpful threads (in my opinion) gathered in one place:

I hope this is useful to some of you~  chuplz.png

and once again, feel free to share the super-awesome things that you found out or improve what I wrote

 

edit: more things I wish I knew earlier

  • to go to "last unread post" of a topic, you can click on the OH-Sign next to it
    imageedit_4_5355185002.jpg
  • Moderators can see who upvoted or downvoted posts
  • Moderators can pin threads, mere mortals have to use 5 platinum tokens if they want their thread to be pinned or ask in the "Ask a mod" thread
  • no, so far I haven't understood what exactly tokens are, but there are 2 helpful threads: "Ask the Events Team" and "OneHallyu's Token 'Black Market' + Token List"

the following tips are from other users and were posted in this thread, I thought it might be useful to include them in the OP

credits to

  • normal users can't see that it was you who downvoted them, as much as you can't see who upvoted or downvoted you
  • posts in the random section don't add to your post count
  • if you're using OH on your mobile, you might want to check out the "full version" at the bottom of the page
  • you can post tweets like this (without the *): [tweet]insert link here[*/tweet]
  • for images or gifs use this (without the *): insert link here[*/img] 
  • And for insta you remove the "www." (Keep the http though) And the remove the "taken/ by/bshdh"
  • when you're quoted but the user doesn't add anything, it means that they agree with you

  • no defending in the bashing thread (you will be banned from posting in the thread)
