   From here, there are many customizable fields. You can change your email adress, date of birth and other additional information. From here, you can change your user title too (the little caption under your avatar).
   
   UPDATE: Haha, finally they removed the dinosaur aged contact information fields like Yahoo, MSN and AIM (what is that even). Now there are fields for your YouTube channel, Twitter, and Tumblr. Hooray!
   
   
2. Change Username
   From here, you can change your username. Your account password is required to do so. All username changes are logged.
   
   
3. Change Password
   Need I say more?
   
   
4. Change Email
   Need I say more?
   
   
5. Change Avatar
   From here you can change your "profile picture". There is an option for direct URL linking and uploading. If you upload, it will be re-sized. The limit for avatars is 120x120 pixels. Avatars and must only contain material that is either official, such as screenshots, or fanart for which permission to use was acquired from the original artist. If this cannot be achieved, then you should not use that fanart. Avatars that do not adhere to these rules or are otherwise disruptive to the community will be removed without notice, with the possibility of warning being applied against your account.
   
   
   
6. Change Signature
   The limit for signatures is 500x200 pixels. This includes the text in the signature. MyCode can be used in your signatures, although video embedding does not work. The same rules as avatars apply.
   
   To include a signature under your posts in the WBO, you must follow these steps: (Click to View)

   1. Go to the "Change Signature" section on the left-hand side of your user control panel.
      [Image: GdBIW.png]
      
   2. [spoiler=Then go and put the URL of the image between brackets in the space provided.]
      [Image: iXMgz.png]
      [Image: 6ex6b.png]
      

   The IMAGE URL needs to go between image brackets.

   Screenshot (Click to View)

   [Image: FzQNE.png]
   From here, there are a whole bunch of options you can change. You can change your thread preferences and how many posts are displayed on each page. Also, you can set your time zone here.
   

Miscellaneous
[Image: vG5r7.png]

1. Group Memberships
   It will show your memberships. You're a WBO member by default. And if you get promoted to an Advanced Member or maybe even a Moderator, that will show here!
   
2. Buddy/Ignore list
   
   Screenshot (Click to View)

   [Image: fPDse.png]
   Here you can add people to your buddy list. Adding them makes it easier to PM them and go to their profile. Also, you can see whether or not they're online. If they're online, you will see the "person" icon blue.
   
   The ignore list allows you to "block" users. You will not be able to send them PM's nor will they be able to send you PM's. Additionally, their posts will be hidden from you.
   
   
3. Manage Attachments
   Any attachments you have made in your posts will appear here. You can delete them and see their statistics. I really think none of the members use the "add attachment" feature regularly.
   
   
4. Saved Drafts
   If you're not ready to post something just yet, you can save it. Here, you can see your drafts and edit/delete them.
   
   
5. Subscribed Threads
   Any threads that you have subscribed to will be shown here. According to your subscription preferences, you will receive emails every time someone posts there. You can also delete your subscriptions.
   
   
6. Forum Subscriptions
   Same purpose as the "Subscribed Threads" feature. Except, here you are subscribed to whole forums (not recommended, lol).
   
   
7. View Profile
   Clicking on this will lead you to your profile page as it as shown to other users (public). The only exception is that your warning level is visible to you here.
   
   
8. Invite Friend
   Nifty little option to invite your friends to this awesome forum. Sends an email link! You can also customize your message.
   

There you have it, the User CP!

Beginner's Guide to the WBO!

My Blog (Updated 9/24

Good guide and a good read. Insomniac I really like how you've stepped up with these guides

Thank you

I was planning on making one big "Beginner's Guide to the WBO" sort of thing that would be more visually appealing and informative (no offense to your guide/th!nk's). But it would be too redundant with all these guides around. So I ended up making smaller, extensive guides on specific aspects. I like to keep everything organized too, so its color coded as well!

Next guide will be up by tomorrow soon. It is coded blue. Can you guess what it will be about

Bump King. For my birthday. I think I've said enough.

OK,so the HMS(did I get it right?) is with beys like Earth Virgo GB145BS and Thermal Pisces T125ES,right?

We are not hackers, so we cannot see pictures inside your computer. You must upload it to an image-hosting website like ImageShack.us

anyone come on an battle me if u dare. COME ON! i will show u my true bladder power!

You posted an awful combo, did not get "yelled at" by anyone, and then decided to argue, insult people, and call me a "petofile".

What is the "sharpest" beyblade in Plastics? Any that could cut your finger if touched? No, this is not for emo purposes, just need to pull off a good pun.

Are you high?

R u dumb?

A tunnel have two hole. One At the start and One at the end.

You think that is a weird fact nobody knows ?

An excellent Balance type bey customization would be Flame Capricorn 145WD. This customization has the maximum amount of Balance power that is possible in a Bey. It also has a high amount of Stamina and Defense power. It has very low attack power. It's a great winning combo! Use it as you please!

But how do we even know if it has Samurai yet?

That is the difference between you and me : I find concrete and confirmed information, and you do not question me.

Um... your email is there. Are you sure its safe to have your email posted there?

But as always, good job, Sarab!

And I make godly sigs in 10 minutes.

I can attest to this.

I don't understand what you mean!
My brain is hurting!
Neyh!!!

Frieza.exe has crashed.
Install ChinaBlade.exe to reboot? Yes/No

//attempting to reboot//Chinablade.exe has successfully rebooted//

One question Insomniac.
What is the text you used for the sigs above?

Its a secret, and I will never tell. Since that text is the key to awesomeness.

Sowwy.

*Eye twitch*
Can you atleast tell me the one in your sig!?
I spent two hours looking for both...

Nope, all fonts and backgrounds are a secret. Keep looking, you'll probably never find them

Never mind, I can't be that cruel. I have messaged you the font.

IF YOU TELL ANYONE ELSE, I WILL HUNT YOU DOWN!~

I won't tell anyone, I swear. On my life.
Frankly, I don't want to be hunt down by someone with the username "Insomniac."
Lol, just kidding.
Anyways, shank you!

Hello, I am Harry Styles. I am the real Harry Styles, not a poser. I am here to have fun, and be creative. Loui is bugging me. Got to go.

No, I think she means that she only uses that email for the WBO.

Now, onto the topic: this is a good guide, it covers everything that people need to know to use UCP comprehensively.

Did not realise this guide, and how did I not know you can save drafts for pm's.

Thanks for the guide, when I need to do a pm I usually rush it and don't end up getting to send it.

Haha mind the username "Nausea"
it's my username for an Elsword Forum, don't really
know how to change usernames now

And how did I not know you can save drafts for pm's.

Usually, with all services that send emails/messages, you can save drafts ...

But cool, at least you learned something today xD
