Hello.

So far you're doing great as far as "taboo" things. Not really any of that here, but there are a few things to remember if you simply want to avoid minor ridicule. Any major harassments should be reported to the site admin, of course.

First, and you avoided this one already, don't "double post." Whenever you start a new post of comment on a previous one, or whatever really, you click a button labeled "Save." You only need to click this once. Even if it seems like it's taking forever to refresh, don't click the button again. Unless there is a major issue, it will go through. The site's server is just slow from time to time, so be patient.

That brings me to the second "no-no" here, expecting speedy replies. This is a forum and as such it takes some time before a response is made to any particular topic or thread. Sometimes you're lucky and that reply comes in a matter of minutes, but more likely it might take hours, days, or even years before a reply. Some threads never get a reply, and you shouldn't feel bad if this happens. Reposting helps sometimes, but don't spam the forums with your question over and over again.

And number three, don't "necropost." Basically, don't reply to a post that has a very old original date. You can find this on the purple bar across the top of the post or reply. If the topic seems interesting to you, make a fresh post. Always make sure you read the time/date stamp of the post or thread before you reply.

Just avoid these common "noob" mistakes, and you'll do fine. Again, you'll probably get laughed at and ridiculed if you slip up once in a while like everyone does, but do it too often and the community will probably shun you. Again, any serious harassment or otherwise offensive behavior you encounter should be reported to the admin immediately.

Thanks, and welcome! I hope you enjoy your stay, and happy inflating!
