Making posts, threads, and modifying threads and posts.
If you know how to do this already, don’t read it .
This is probably the most important thing you’ll ever learn if you’ve never used forums. Posting gives you the abililty to communicate your thoughts and make your words known. However, if you say stupid things at stupid times, your “opinions” may be regarded as spam and will be either criticized, ignored, or deleted, just a heads up. Ok, then, let’s get started
Making Threads
There are many topics, better known as “threads” that you can share your comments or opinions on. Here you will create your first topic by introducing yourself to the clan. First, in the “guest viewable area,” go to the board “Say hello to {Jedi}!” Now, if you look around the box, in the bottom right corner or top right corner, you will find a button that says “New Thread”. Click that.
Now in the subject box, type in something like “Hi my name is...”. In messages, type what you want, using the buttons on top to make it all pretty if you want. When you’re done, click “post message”, and that’s all there is to it! At the top of the forums, click “home” so you can go back to the main page of the forums and search through other topics.
Posting, or adding your thoughts or communicating, on the forums
Let’s go back to the “Say Hello to {Jedi}!” and say something to the poor admin who feels unloved. Click on his topic, and at the bottom right corner, type a message in the “quick reply” text box, and hitting “post reply”. Or, you can go to the “Reply” button in the lower right hand corner, and type a message from there, which is probably more efficient since you can change boldness, size of your text, and all these other cool things from there.
