Firstly, let me say that I am REALLY sorry that I am doing this, and I know that the c++ section of daniweb is not the section that is supposed to be used for posting general questions about daniweb... I'm just terrible at finding things.
If someone could give/tell me:
1) a link to rules.
2) the name of a good moderator/other person who could give general help via private message
3) How on earth do you give people reputation points?
Thanks and, once again, sorry.

Ancient Dragon is an excellent mod, he's helped me loads of times. Rules are stickied at the top of the page. To give rep, right under the persons name on their post it says "Add to Name's Reputation" Click that, and enter a reason.

Don't expect any mod to answer questions via PM -- we don't. Post all questions on one of the DaniWeb boards.
And I moved this thread to a more appropriate board.

Don't PM me with questions -- you might get a nasty PM in response. If you have a question then post it in one of the forums.
>1) a link to rules.
It's on every page, just below the breadcrumbs and page header along with the FAQ (which people also tend not to read) and the welcome guide.
>2) the name of a good moderator/other person who
>could give general help via private message
If you have a question that can be answered by posting in one of the forums, ask it in a thread. Moderators aren't obligated to give you private and personal help; in fact, most of us will refuse to do so when approached.
However, if you have a question directly related to a specific moderation action or our interpretation of the rules, any of us will be happy to answer through PM (though rule interpretation questions might be better suited to a thread on this forum so that everyone can see). If you have a question about the duties of a moderator, a request to become a moderator, or a complaint about any of the moderators, please direct your PM to me.

I'm here to prove you wrong.

That's what I thought, too.
But then again, looking in the forum archives, I see that Narue became a moderator because she requested the position. I don't think it's a hard-set rule in any case.

As forums go, I'd say Daniweb is fairly lax at picking mods -- no offense to anyone (after all, I was one once).
