This particular thread is mainly aimed at Newbies that are having a hard time finding there way around the site. I have created this thread so there will be less confusing about where this and where's that.

Forum Overview.

Basic Functions:

When you click on a Forum Category you will be brought to a page similar to this page. As you see in the picture there is a red pin on one of the threads, This is indicating that that thread has important information in. If threads are pinned they will always be at the top of the Category and will not move.What are thread? Threads are basically a topic that is started by someone. To be able to create your own thread, Click on "Post New thread" as the screenshot shows.

It will bring you to an editors page.

Posting Images.

You can externally post images in your threads/Posts. I will show you a little example of how to Host a Image.
Firstly, Go to google Images and find a image you like. Here is an example.

Once you have done that Hover over the picture and right click, Find the button where it says Copy IMG url and click it.
Come back to your thread and go to the Image Icon on your editor.

Paste the URL into the box and hit Embed, The video will now Appear in the text box.

User account control/Sigs
This feature is very useful on this site. I know many people will know this but your signature is one what will appear under your forum posts, While your Avatars are posted in your postbit. They may contain anything you like but follow the rules, One thing won't be allowed and that is anything related to porn, If this is found you could be banned.

To edit your signature, go to your User Control Panel, or access it straight from the
profile menu when you hover over your username in the userbox on the right side of the page

2e2079405e5cf65932f549005b2b6058.png

User name tagging.

We have had this feature for quite a while Mainly used for getting other users attention.
You can simple do this by writing "@Username" without the quotes. Here is a little example.
