[BSVBD]

I hope this is an acceptable topic for this forum.

Within the Eng-Tips Forum, when go to the upper right corner, I click on "My Stuff", then "My thread Archive" and the page says, "BSVBD has no archived threads".

1. How do I archive?
2. Is there a "Help" page within this forum?
3. Am I allowed to archive other peoples threads that I find useful?
4. Within threads, many people use the term "OP". What does that stand for?
5. If this is the wrong topic for this forum, where do I go for this type of help?

Thank you!
