If it's a quick little question then an answer from a moderator isn't really needed. Most members can answer those. That's the whole point of the thread. If you want a general answer quickly, ask it here to the members. If you want an exact answer from a mod, send a help request. The catch is that those usually require us to discuss the question so we're on the same page, hence the wait time.
HQ is for simple questions. We usually spend out time waiting 2 minutes to load a report or dear god, attempting to change OPs or switch thread locations. It's time consuming.
Yeah, those who often whine "I need an actual mod to answer this question" whenever someone offers help should read this.
Its really nice to get answers for quick little questions here instead of sending HRs.
Idk about others but I really appreciate that.
I just can't at certain members being so disrespectful whenever someone answers their queries here.
The whole cosigning with smilies thing is really annoying too
Yeah, that's why I was like "ok, answer yourself then". I already know who not to answer!
Not you having a list of people you are not going to answer
It's not a list, but I've memorized who is rude to the ones who help them.
But if they ask nicely and I can help them I will, even though I know they could answer me with the "Retro pet thing".
But sometimes, as someone mentioned, is better not to answer them here so they send their Help Requests!
Why is it that SOME atrl members can't make a point without inserting countless s and s. Do they think it makes them seem more intelligent that they're mindlessly laughing at what they think is an incorrect opinion?
Oow, ok, that's why I couldn't find the option anywhere. Thankis!
Under "My ATRL" there is a section called "Account Info and Change User Name." I believe it should tell you there how much longer you have to wait to change your name again.
I remember from ANTM! Nobody believed you...including me.

I was real simple in the beginning; I didn't even have an avatar for more than a year after I joined. Avoiding the smilies just became part of my ATRL persona, though I did eventually jump on the GIF bandwagon.
Anyway, I would love some suggestions for what my smilie could be!

Is that Ciara?
Just let the people here have fun, for the love of god.
