Hey guys, I've been thinking about making a site guide for all of the new members. It would be something that they could refer to in case there was something they had a question about.

The thing I want to know though, is what do YOU think I should include in the guide? What would be something really helpful to know for someone who is new to the site?

If you've got a suggestion, please tell me here because it would be a great help.

Thanks.

I guess forum do's and don't-s would be a good thing.. to add.
Not spamming..the boards with likes "yes" and "good idea" kinda posts..you know? Have some more meaning..to say something..?

This would be great! Probably showing them how to make URLs and IMGs.

No selling things, like "hi guys I'm here with this new product......" thats irratating (sp). I would also put something on how to set up your profile (there are a lot of different options) just something quick maybe include why it is important to have a profile to.

Ok, so we've got the search function, forum do's and don'ts, no selling things, and profiles. Anything else? I know there's a lot more that could be included, but I want to hear it from you guys.

No inappropriate images/signatures..I suppose but I would assume its a no brainer..
Maybe a thing..so the new members can tell the difference from veterans,mods,admins..I guess?
So they know who they're talking to and how to become them..if they wanted to be a veteran..there's a section where they know how to become one and what the difference is between that and a regular member?

maybe the basics of coding. like
or the embed image codes, or the text color change basics. New peoples will want to make rainbow text like Niho.

Spelling. It drives me crazy when 'SuM1 PsTs StUfF LyK DiS!' When you come on this forum although you don't expect every single word to be spelt correctly you should be able to read what has been written and times before now I haven't been able to.
