Ok peeps, I need your help in putting together a video tour / tutorial for the new BYC. Here are some of the things I definitely want to cover:
  1. Joining the site
  2. Accessing and editing a profile
  3. Basic browsing, sorting / filtering threads / search
  4. Creating a thread
  5. Replying to a thread
  6. Liking a post
  7. Quoting
  8. Linking to a specific thread
  9. Uploading pictures
  10. Watching / Subscribing to threads
  11. Creating galleries / albums
  12. Sending a conversation / private message
  13. Creating & rating articles
  14. Creating & rating reviews
  15. Trophies

What else are important areas to cover?

With regard to this, could it include the importance of including general location under one's avatar? So many times members ask questions that its difficult to advise on, since we don't know their approximate location.

Alternatively, it would be even easier if it was a compulsory field when joining.

Nice idea!

On mobile, it never shows location any way. I've just gotten used to clicking on a member's name if I need to know where they are located. A lot don't put their location. (Which by the way, I clicked on yours, CTKen, and it seems you haven't put your location in your own profile.) Compulsory location field would help a lot with that. Anyone who objects can always write something like "in the coop", if they wanted.

Said the one who's location is not under their avatar ;)
