Re: Welcome to the STAR WARS™: Galaxy of Heroes Boards on Answers HQ!

Creating a New Thread or Discussion 

You can open a new thread using the 'New topic' button in any board - Game information, Technical issues or Bug Reports.


Please, avoid opening the same thread in different boards - this is considered spam and it's against the Answers HQ Forum Rules. If you are not sure which is the right board for your topic, just open it in one place and it will be moved if needed.

    Finding Your Threads & Keeping Up With New Posts

    You can find a list of the threads and posts you've made or answered in your profile. Just click on your username in the right top corner of the page and select 'Profile':

    Under ‘Recent activity’ you will see your last posts, and if you click on ‘View all’ you will get to a page with a list of all your posts posted in the language you have chosen.

    Keeping up with threads and new posts

    Whether you've created a new thread or found an existing one that you'd like to keep up with it, subscribing will ensure you are notified when a new post is shared. For new threads you create, you can subscribe to your thread from the draft page by checking the 'Subscribe to replies' box at the bottom 


    If you forget to select that button at that stage, or if you just want to be kept up-to-date on another thread you haven't posted in, you can subscribe if you click on the three dots to the top right of that thread and select 'Subscribe' from the dropdown menu. 

    One more thing, if you look at the image above you'll see a 'Bookmark' option. You can also bookmark a thread for later easy finding through your profile but you won't get an notification or e-mail for new posts in those though.

    Replying & Quoting Others

    With busy threads, you might want to reply to a certain post and quoting the user can help make it clearer what you are referring to.

    So, if you want to reply to a player, click on reply on the post you want to quote like this:
    (Note: if you use quick reply, you won't be able to quote)

    Once you've hit reply, you will be taken to a page where you can draft your message and include a quote from that player. The Quote option is in the top right just above the text window (see the image below). Press it and a quote of the post you're replying to will appear in the text box which you can make edits too to help highlight which portion you're referring to in your reply.

    Editing Posts & Adding Pictures

    Spotted a typo? Remembered more information after pressing Submit? That's ok, we've all been there and needed to edit. The best practise is to get the edit in before it's been replied to as changing information in your post after a reply isn't advised nor fair to other readers so try to get that edit in there asap. 🙂 

    To edit your post, click on the three dots of the post and choose Edit Reply like in the image below. This will allow you to edit. 

    How to add images/pictures to your posts

    It's best to upload your pictures or images directly to Answers HQ as sometimes images can be removed on some third party site.

    There are two options to add pictures

    1. Use Attach file at the bottom.
    2. Select the picture icon in the bar and then upload it.

    What are they and how do they work?

    • Accept as Solution button - If your issue was solved or if a post answers your question or was helpful, please let us and other players know by hitting this button.
    • Me Too button - This is a powerful button. The 'Me Too' button helps us track how many players are also experiencing that issue. Definitely make use of this button.
    • XP button - Say Kudos and help players 'Level Up' by giving them XP for helpful posts. The ‘XP’ button gives experience points to the user who wrote it. It's an easy way of saying 'thank you' to the author and help them level up in the community. For more information on Leveling Up, check out the Answers HQ FAQ page.
