>>3 Your friend should've also gave you insight on the posting "rules"(really, it shouldn't be called rules, it's like in every damn forum) of the site. Meaning, look around before you post or make a new thread. And it really is more imperative than other forums because we can't move threads, merge threads, or delete threads unless the admin is here. And only him, since we have no actual mods with the power to delete.
The only difference from a regular forum and this one is the View All Threads button, which is just a basic Search button in other words. Except you'd have to use the ctrl f function of your keyboard to actually look through shit.
Anyways, welcome and read the FAQ if you haven't.
