</param>
</params>
</methodResponse>

A failed attempt will return a message.

<?XML version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8' ?>
<methodResponse>

</fault>
</methodResponse>

Note:

• Your "Userid" and "BBcode" can be found on your Profile page (click "Update Profile").
• The "Tolanguage" and "Fromlanguage" should be standard 3-letter ISO codes.
• Your request will be queued for approval and it may take a few hours before it comes onto the site. You can apply to be pre-approved in which case all your request will be "live" as soon as the are submitted.
