If you receive messages from new users, their identity is added to the current identities.xml file. + If you swap to the other identities file, the new users identity is not yet contained in the identities.xml! + This will lead you into several problems.

When your frost tries to post the message it starts with 0 of the current day, and moves to whatever slot is the lowest and empty... then puts it there.</P> + + <P><B>Q: How do I create boards?</B></P> + <P>A:</P> + <OL> + <LI>Make sure you have a good idea what you want the board to be about. Make sure the + topic is neither to specific nor too broad. Use your common sense here.</LI> + <LI>Look around whether there already is a board that suits your interests. Ask in the + "boards" board.</LI> + <LI>If there isn't a suitable board yet, ask yourself whether such a board would be + suitable for Freenet at all. Note that most Freenetizens are very concerned about + giving away any sort of personal data, which makes discussion pretty hard at times + and rules out a number of topics right away. Ask yourself whether there would actually + be anything interesting to discuss about the topic you have in mind.</LI> + <LI>Choose a good name for your board. Think about this a bit. Choose a name that is + short and descriptive and clearly defines the limits of the boards topic. If the + discussion on the board is not supposed to be in english, make sure this is obvious + from the name (Examples: fr.comics, es.politics...).</LI> + <LI>Click on the blank-page-with-plus-sign icon in the upper left corner of the frost + window. Enter the name you just thought of into the dialogue that appears and click + "Add board". The board should now appear in the board list on the left. + Note that if several people do that and they all enter the same name there, they will + all end up on the same board and be able to exchange messages with each other. + That is, unless any of them messes around with board-keys for that board. (In which case that + person will end up on a private board all of their own, missing out on all the fun that + the others are having.)<BR> + Remember you don't really <I>create</I> a board, you just specify a common board name and all + users that use the same board name will see the messages sent to this board. If noone + sends messages, or if you remove the board from your list, the board is still there.</LI> + <LI>If, and only if, you want this board to be a moderated board (meaning only you can + post there, while others can only read), right-click the board and select configure. + Click on "Secure Board". Click on "Generate Key Pair". Click OK.<BR> + If you want to make a board where other people can post, too, then, please, for the + love of all that's good and right, do not add any board keys.</LI> + <LI>Advertise your board. Post a message about it in the boards board. Post something + interesting/funny/provocative/whatever into the board you created, so that newcomers + won't find it all empty. If you have chosen to make a keyed board, make sure you never + give away the private key. That would defeat the purpose of having keys on a board.</LI> + </OL> + <P><B>Q: Anything else?</B></P> <P>A: Yes.
