Seems Real Simple. What Could Go Wrong?
Your New Thread Freezes While Posting
- Upon clicking 'New Thread' to create your new thread, the page sticks on 'posting' forever.
- If this happens, open up a new tab, open the catalog, press ctrl&F5 together to refresh the page, look for your new thread.
- It will probably be there somewhere in the top two rows. If so, click to open it up and reply from there. Close your frozen 'posting' tab.
- If it's not there, start from scratch.
You Name The Thread With The Incorrect Number
- If you do this, you're a faggot who didn't quadruple check. No worries.
- Let the BO know and ask them to rename it.
- On your first top post of the thread, beside the thread title, click on the triangle and 'report'.
- Type in 'BO, please rename as #444. TY, Baker'. BO will rename soon and let you know in the thread.
- Make a clear announcement as soon as you can in the thread to stop any complaints -
Incorrect Thread Number. This is #832
I have requested that the BO change it. Sorry folks, baker.
Two Threads Are Made At The Same Time
- If this happens, report the other thread as above, and request that the BO delete it.
- Make a clear post in the wrong thread, directing anons to the correct thread. Include link.
You Make A Mistake
- If this happens, fess up and say sorry in a clear post, as fast as you can. This stops confusion and complaints.
- If confusion or complaints persist, make another announcement.

Bakers Etiquette
Starting to Bake
- If you'd like to bake, announce ==baker on standby== or something like that.
- If the current baker requests a new baker, answer them and offer.
- Once the current baker gives you the go ahead, he will announce you as the new baker.
- This is known as the bakers handshake. Ask again for confirmation if it's not given, to be 100% clear.
- Post in the thread to show you're on it and assure anons you're doing your job (post added to bread) or similar.
Handing Over
- Request a new baker early and clearly ==new baker required== or something like that.
- Wait for a new baker. Confirm with them and announce them clearly ==new baker confirmed==.
- If you have to leave and don't have a baker, leave a clear announcement saying you're leaving, along with a request for a new baker for the next thread.
- Ask anons help by posting for a new baker.

When Q Posts
- Concentrate on getting them accurately into the dough as they're posted, as fast as you can.
- Expect the kitchen to get HOT and the threads to move QUICKLY. Stay super alert. Have your next thread ready very early.
- If you have time, try to gather notable theories and posts on Q's posts and add them to the dough together or by subject. - You can put a space and a , between each >>55900 , >>55960.
- This way anons can catch up on what's been discovered / lines of thinking when they join later.

Practising Baking Before Going Live
- Go to 8ch.net/comms/ and post a trial bread over there following the instructions above.
- Please delete your thread afterwards by clicking on the triangle next to your thread header and 'delete post'.
———————————–
Archiving Notable Posts
- Click on the Best of Bread link which is always at the foot of the notables section (open in a new tab).
- Copy from your dough those you wish to archive and post them as a reply in Best of Bread.
- Copy them from your dough rather than the thread so that you retain the formatting over on BofB.
- Delete them from your dough.
- /Comms/Anon also archives the notables on /comms/ themselves, so we have 2 notable's archives.
If you think anything is needed in these instructions, please shout out in the thread.
WELCOME TO THE KITCHEN. YOUR SERVICE IS APPRECIATED.
GOOD LUCK! BAKING IS REWARDING AND YOU'LL SOON FIND YOUR RHYTHM.
IF IN DOUBT, ASK IN THREAD. ANONS AND OLDFAG BAKERS WILL HELP YOU.
GODSPEED APPRENTICE BAKER, YOU'LL SOON BE A MASTER.
