etiquette on board

[#1]

I am new here, and unsure of some things.

1) what does the hearts icon mean?

2) does it matter if you best answer someone's comment?

3) do you thank every commentor who posted? i notice there isn't a way to post a follow up otherwise

thanks in advance.

To answer you "best answer" question, you don't have to check that box if you don't want to. I give hearts to posters who are kind enough to respond to my question and if I can't decide whose answer is best, (often I get multiple posts that each have a great point), then I don't check it off, since I thought there were more than one best answer.

Hope this helps!

Hi, curvygirli!  Those are great questions.

To answer question, #1 about the "hearts" icon...here is a link that explains the "hearts":  http://community.sephora.com/t5/BeautyTalk-Support/How-to-Hearts/m-p/308/highlight/true#M7

Question #2:  If you are asking if you have to answer comments if someone posts a comment to you, the answer is that it is completely up to you and depends on what the comment says.  Some comments don't require a follow-up answer and there are some that you may want to comment back to.  So it is really just a case-by-case basis on whether or not you need to answer comments or not.

Question #3:  The way to thank someone who posted an answer to your question is to give them a heart.  That lets them know that you appreciated them taking the time to answer your question and that way you don't have to write a personal thank-you to everyone who answers your post.

I hope this helps.
