How can I complete the tutorials to get those badges?
You should have got a PM from the forum software’s bot when you joined … and there’s a slightly cryptic clue toward the end (hint: bookmarking) to progress to earning that badge.

Hope someone can help with this. I’m not a big user of Social Media so miss the things that others know instinctively. There is mention of a Tutorial on how the site works but I can’t find it. It would be good to have some understanding of the site and the protocols.
Can anyone tell me how to access it?
thanks
Also I should point out that I’m quite old…

You will have received a “Greetings!” DM (Direct Message) from the Forum’s automated bot that has the instructions to proceed to the tutorial.
… and (a non-automated) welcome to GADC, too. 
Thank you @OzoneVibe found the tutorial under the bookmark; enjoyed it too!
I had been looking for … in the line up below the response.
Again, thanks

Welcome. Bet you’re not as old as some of us on here !!
checking out the crash helmet, rear shocks, fairing style and front drum - I’d say that bike pic is late 50s early 60s - so, if it’s you, you may well have seniority over me sir! My first bike was in '69.

You’re nearly right, Corker helmet, plus fours!!! Triumph 5T, circa 1967, aged 22yrs.

You are far from alone … this place was “Social Distancing / Shielding Central” during lock-down! (I exagerate.)
You can get an idea of age ranges from a poll, earlier this year : Age Range (poll).
Hi Gavin and welcome to GADC.
Yep, you outrank me by 8 years!!
Is 75 old, or do I have to wait a bit longer?? 
I’m sorry I started this - my comment about being old was just a pathetic excuse for being useless!
Anyway a friend who recently retired as Professor of Nanoelectronics at Glasgow once explained to me why time, and therefore age, doesn’t exist.
He lost me in the first 30 seconds - which could have been 4 hours or 3 days according to his logic.

Can the PM be re-sent at all? I didn’t do the tutorials either when I first joined.
The “Greetings” DM is still in your inbox.
