1) stand somewhere with NLM grid access (your character must be in a location with a Quickterm or have a portable term on them)
2) go to the Media Feed tab at the Sindome website
3) on the right there will be a little box with links in it, one will say "access grid 2.0". Click it. If this link isn't showing up and instead the box says "your character must be logged in to access the grid", then try deleting your cookies & browser history and repeating step 2.
4) make sure you can get popup windows. Grid 2.0 will show up, and you have to sign in with an IC password & username, or register for one.
Hope this helps. I haven't tried it in a while.
I would be more then happy to walk you through everything. It does use javascript so that will most likely need to be enabled for the Grid to work.
Next time we're both on, xhelp and I'll go through it with you.
Also, text messages are a great way to send brief messages. If you have a progia-11 and so does whom you're trying to get ahold of.
Also, if you know where some lives, you can 'buzz' there cube door and it will send the person an e-mail saying that someone is knocking on their door trying to RP with them.
