I know this is probably obvious, but how exactly do you get to your account related settings?

On the top left of the forums, you should see the Toribash Logo. Then under that you should see the folder with "Toribash community". And right under that there is "User CP". User CP is where you can change everything

I don't know why, but here's the link : http://forum.toribash.com/usercp.php

Whatcha need to edit? If you don't mind me askin'.

Hey,

First of all, It's called the User Control Panel,

Over there, You can look almost everything recorded in your account since the minute you registered and all other options,
Things such as:
-Unread Private messages.
-Infractions.

-Edit Your Details
-Profile Privacy
-Contacts.

-Social groups.
-Group memberships.

-Edit Avatar
-Edit Signature
-Edit Email & Password
-Edit Options
-Edit Ignore List

-List Messages
-Send New Message
-Track Messages
-Edit Folders

-List Subscriptions
-Edit Folders

-Event Reminders
-Paid Subscriptions
-Attachments.

Another cool thing is that you can change the Font and Color to your desired choice, Meaning it will occur in every post you create.
