Make an account
Your username is the name everybody sees, here and on Buzz. Nothing else about you is asked for. No email, no school, no year.
Made your account on Buzz? It works here too. It's the same account.
There is no email on Quad. Instead you get six words at the end of this. Write them down. They are how you get back in if you forget your password.
Use your recovery phrase
The six words you wrote down when you made the account. Then pick a new password.
Write these down
These six words are how you get back in if you forget your password. There is no email on Quad, so this is the only way. You will not see them again.
@you
This is what everybody sees next to your posts.
Username
Changing it does not lose anything. Your saved games and your posts are filed under you, not under your name. Your old posts show the new one.
Picture
These are the only pictures there are. Quad never takes an upload from anybody. The privacy page says why.
Password
Changing it signs out every other computer you are logged in on. If you forget it, your six-word recovery phrase below is the way back.
Recovery phrase
Six words that get you back in if you forget your password. Quad only keeps a scrambled copy, so it cannot be shown to you again. If you have lost it, or you never wrote it down, get a new one. The old one stops working.
Log out
Signs this computer out and wipes what was on it, including the private Ask conversations saved on it. Other computers stay signed in.
What Quad stores about you is on the privacy page.
