After that, all you need to do is hit the "Post Reply" button. 
If you want to enable or disable Signatures and Emojis, make sure the relevant boxes are ticked.

3. All done!

Congrats! You made it through your post, and after a few more times, it'll come to you easier. 
Any questions can be directed to our members (and staff), who would be happy to help you out!


How To Post Threads

How do I start my own subject?

1. Find the Correct Forum
After figuring out the topic for your desired thread, it's a good idea to find the correct forum to put your thread in.

There will always be a "Post Thread" button in all appropriate sections.


2. Post Thread 

Clicking "Post Thread" will take you to this window.

A - Thread Subject
Refers to the subject of the thread, make sure it is relevant to your topic so that members can understand what your thread is about.
No need to be formal if you don't want to be!

B - Body
This is where you type your thread content.

C - Emojis
Go ham or go home, there for you to add some fun to your post. 

3. Post!

Hit that "Post Thread" button at the bottom of the window! 
You can also "Preview Thread" which will show you what your thread will look like when published.
