New GB/HB Users FAQ/A!

Alright, I'm going to be making this "guide" / faq for the same 1000000000000000000000000 questions i get everyday about the same stuff, i'll edit it and make it look pretty and neat in the end. *****Mods***** please do not sticky this thread yet, I am wanting some replies - then when I/we are satisfied w/ the FAQ, we can make a fresh thread and sticky/lock it or something.

-- I'll be taking Q/A's from other users if you post them here.

Please put any q/a's in a non-flame, non-spam, non-talking down to n00bs way

ie:

Q: So I just got GB, installed it, what do I do now? I want to farm [xx] region for [Herbs/Mining]
A: ZOMG n00b!!!!111oneoneones1!11aasdlkf use the search form
A: dude get out of chat
A: use your common sense, read the forums and simply LOOK!
A: Go to the GB sub-forum and check the profiles that are within the level range of the skills that you are inquiring about
These profiles can be found in the GB Profiles Subforum

^^ all of the above are correct, but the type that i'm looking for is similar to A4

Wrong answer:
A: SPAM Boss/Hawk/Tony with PM's until they answer ... <--- these guys have enough to do instead of answering a million questions that are here on the forums already.
A: post a topic stating im a n00b and i dont know how to use the search function

Ok - so lets start (we can do the order of FAQ's later - i want to get them out here first)

Q: Kick, can I PM you ask you 50 questions about your [xx] thread?
A: No, reply in the thread and I, or another member, will answer the question

Q: I have PM'd Boss/Hawk/Tony/XX a message, why have they not responded?
A: The mods and devs are very busy - if the question can be answered via search, they may have ignored it. But if its valid, >24 hours

Q: I paid with [Paypal, Moneybookers, XX] and I keep getting NOT PAID
A: Paypal is instant if you have money in your acct - if not, it takes time to get from your bank/cc to your paypal. Bossland has to manually verify all Moneybookers transactions for first time customers to GB/HB

Q: I have GB, HB, HB RaF but I want GB lifetime - what can I do?
A: If you would like to upgrade - Make a post in the payments forum and tell Bossland this info:
Subject: Upgrade to GB lifetime
Text: Hello Bossland, I would like to upgrade from [xx] to GB Lifetime - I will be paying via [Paypal, Moneybookers, XX], here is my invoice #
^^ This will take Bossland 1-5 business days to complete. Do NOT spam him

Q: I want a refund!

But I suggest you see if there is a solution to any problems if its something that can be fixed

Well done m8!

 

Nice informative thread good work.

 

Does the 10-15 auctions limited to one item or of all the shit you farm?
