Separate topics with commas, or by pressing return. Use the delete or backspace key to edit or remove existing topics.

You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

This is a really great opportunity for folks who are good writers. Not only will you be able to make M$5-M$10 to write these articles, you'll also be able to make half the revenue from them in Mahalo Dollars when they are on the site.... and we all know that How To Articles are some of the most profitable in the system!

Go ahead and jump in there and start making some if you're so inclined!

How about a How to page on how to answer questions on Mahalo without offending anyone. Then people would know what not to do if they don't want their entire profile wiped out for offending the wrong person. You know a complete "How to be PC on Mahalo" guide.
Respectfully,
Darron

Yes I am totally serious I have saved screenshots proving I had a Mahalo Identity but I have nothing now no points, no money, no belt and no history. (That is unless you know how to get in there and find it) I believe I know why this has happened but you'll have read about it on the blog!

We can still create our own how-to pages can't we?

On the face of it, making a baby seems rather simple. After all, the basic "how to" is probably something you've more or less been doing for some time now. Yet when it comes to the finely tuned sequence of events that must take place for conception to occur, there's plenty of room for foiled attempts -- and confusion. "Because most women's cycles vary from month to month, it's no wonder most couples have some mistaken notions about predicting when ovulation will occur and when you're most fertile," says Allen Wilcox, M.D., chief of the epidemiology branch at the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences.

Lack of knowledge doesn't always hamper your efforts, of course, but it can add unneeded frustration and delay. For instance, many women assume that the minute they stop using birth control, they'll conceive. Or that if becoming pregnant with their first child was a snap, things will go like clockwork the second time around. When it doesn't, they panic.

A visit to your gynecologist can help clear up some of the confusion. In fact, it's essential to visit your doctor before trying to conceive; you need to make sure you've had a German measles vaccine and that you're getting enough folic acid (both critical for preventing birth defects). Your doctor may also suggest testing for certain genetic diseases.

I had the same problem. I tried changing the name to just Eric in case the extra c was a mistake, but no dice. Help, anyone?

I think this thread is quite old, in Mahalo terms anyway.

If you are all interested in becoming part of the How To team, then go pick up a "Rushweek Task" - only one per week is permitted - and try to get on the team that way.

These links will tell you what you can do to get on the How To team.

Good luck to you all, hope to see you there.

Sounds great! For the writing sample, should we just create a new how-to page and send it in?

That's all I did, Demanda. I don't know if it was right or not... I haven't heard anything.

I created a new page and referenced two other How To pages.

I'm not too sure why there is an approval process at all... but I'm happy to reply to Eric with a few of the pages that I've done.
