First, read:
* The Code of Conduct
* The Forum rules
* The other rules
New members, I welcome you to the Bungie forums and B-net itself! Here in this thread, you can become a better member and become more proficent in comunicating with other people of B-net. Here are easy steps to becoming a great member:
1) Starting on the Bungie forums
Before you start posting over and over again and randomly say hello to everone you see, please don't over do it, you are new here, people demand your respect, and you must respect theirs.
First, familiarize yourself with all the forums:
* The Underground
* The Septagon(which your in)
* New Mombsa
* Zanzibar
* Optimatch(pretty much only useful if you have Xbox Live)
* The Maw
* The Library
* The Gallery
* The News
* Voting Booth
* The Classifieds
* The Flood
First post on a forum:
Your first post in a thread can be anything you want, pick a thread your interested in, and, before you sart ralking about the thread creators topic, read the others post below him, it can be a wide conversation, if thier seems to be a fight, ignore it, you will only get flamed. Instead, write a comment/suggestion/idea or blah blah blah from the subject, it will lead to intelllegent conversation.
Humor and cursing is ok on the Forums, don't do too much of either, it can lead to really bad consequences. I suggest keep your spelling and grammer top notch, resaults will either be someone won't know what your talking about or start to become a smart alic on how to spell. Oh, and that reminds me, keep caps lock to a minimum, it gets annoying and making caps is the equivalent of yelling, so unless it something important, don't, it sucks.
Don't flame, you will be flamed back, so act like a mature peson why the above user should stop his flame, but intellegently.
The guide will be updaed later, oh say tommarow, so bye.
