Hello Vizzed.com 

It's bickerswag! I created my account yesterday after seeing all the amazing games you can play on here. Started a game of Fire Red! 

I thought I'd say hi as I am planning on using this site on a regular basis.

Does anyone have any tips/advice on how to use vizzed effectively?

THANKS ALL

Bickerswag

Hi bickerswag, welcome to Vizzed!

I'm glad that Vizzed's collection of retro games has convinced you to create an account, hehe.

As for advice, it would depend which parts of Vizzed you are using. It's always helpful to look at these 3 links, though.

Terminology and Features
Do's and Don'ts
FAQs

They're a bit outdated, but they should be able to keep you informed about what goes on here.

I assume that you're familiar with the Retro Game Room, Vizzed's main attraction. However, if you find some trouble with the plugin, the RGR Staff are the people you go to. PM this user with descriptions about the problem for the plugin. Keep in mind, though, that they only deal with technical problems. It's not recommended to PM them about something like how to find Pikachu in Fire Red.

If you use the forums, there's usually specific 'forum rules' for each forum on Vizzed. You can usually find them 'stickied' to the top of the forum. It's recommended to read over them before making threads or posting. If you find anything that's against the rules in the forums, it's recommended to PM the Local Moderators about it. Also, don't be afraid to PM us if there are things about the site that are still unclear to you.

Now the most important one, if anyone is harassing you or giving you trouble, then it's highly recommended to PM the Global Moderators. It's best if you can provide some proof of the harassment, since it would be easier for them to help you out.

I hope you enjoy using Vizzed, happy gaming.

Welome to this gtear site. I am sure that you will have a wonderful time and that you will love us all. If you ever need anything, just come and find me, I will be sitting in that lawn chair all the way over there. Have a great time.

bickerswag : Welcome to Vizzed! I also use this site regularly for playing turn based rpgs. Those are the games I like the most, but I can try other kinds of games. What type of games do you play most of?

Welcome to Vizzed! It's great to see that you decided to join us.

Some tips? You can save your game at any point (as long as you're using an emulator powered by the plugin rather than a Java emulator), which can be a big help in some retro games that send you back a long way if you die, or don't allow for saves or continues. Remember though that most systems only support one save, so take care that you don't overwrite your Pokemon save on accident!


Regarding the forums, about the only thing that I can think of that Mistress hasn't already said is in regards to summoning users to a thread. To summon one person, you can simply click on the "Reply to post" link just above their post in the same thread. This will notify them that you replied to them. Otherwise they may never find your message.

To summon someone without using that button, type their username (make sure to spell it just right), then a space, then place a colon. Also be sure to do this at the start of a new line. Like this:
Eirinn : This will notify me that "Eirinn replied to your post in the following thread:" You can use this method to summon multiple people.

Finally, you can click on "add to favorites" at the bottom of a thread to get notifications everytime someone posts in that thread.

That pretty much sums up everything that you haven't already been told. It's a lot to take in, so please feel free to ask any questions. Enjoy Vizzed!

Eirinn : All dem tips tho.

Hello, and Welcome to FVizzed!

Pokémon Fire Red, huh? It's a very good game (I've finished it so many times that I lost count trying to count how many times I've counted and failed), but remember: There's so many games here that it's easy to get lost. I'd like to give you some tips, but after seeing Eirinn's post, I doubt I can say anything. But hopefully, you're going to enjoy your time here.

See you around, and don't believe in first impressions!
