|
A brief tutorial - Site Conventions |
|

--------------------------------------------------------- |
|
� While the site does have a bunch of dedicated |
|
categories/boards, you are NOT required to post the things that |
|
fit those categories there. They are there for the convenience |
|
of posting things that you want to be able to navigate back to |
|
later and have a conversation that may span days rather than |
|
hours. |
|
� For the Daily Thread of the Day, LabPartner generally starts |
|
this thread at midnight and posts the links and summaries for |
|
the advice columns we like to read (not gift links, sorry, but |
|
too many to do that for and Lab does excellent summaries). |
|
� Across the site, there is generally no such thing as |
|
off-topic, but in some of the dedicated threads - particularly |
|
the ones on more serious subjects - we do ask that you exercise |
|
discretion about not changing the subject or moving off-topic |
|
there. The Daily Thread is always a free for all and everything |
|
is on-topic even if it's off-topic. |
|
� On Hax Chat days, Animaniactoo (Moi! Moi!) will post a |
|
Calendar Event (accessible from the Calendar in the top |
|
navigation bar) to a discussion thread with a gift link to the |
|
Friday chat. Discussion for the chat happens on that thread, |
|
and/or in our own live chat which can be accessed by hitting the |
|
"Chat" button on the top navigation bar. Abiding Dude is the |
|
regular Bartender. Muskrat is in charge of Snax. |
|
� Because we can get GIF heavy and the gifs can be a problem for |
|
some people who have visual motion issues, we do ask that if |
|
you're quoting something with a series of flashy gifs in their |
|
post/the quote chain, you edit out as many as you can from your |
|
own re-posting of them. The migraine-trigger people, etc. thank |
|
you for your efforts on this front. |
|
Note: This is not saying don't have fun with the GIFs - we love |
|
the GIFs, GIFs are fun!... just please help keep them from |
|
overwhelming the discussion. |
|
� Every now and then something will be suggested as a change or |
|
new thing. If there's support for it, or it seems like something |
|
reasonable/doable to Animaniactoo, she will generally put up a |
|
poll and discussion for that thing so that it is a group |
|
decision as much as possible for how this space is shaped and |
|
operates. Do not assume an option you don't like on the poll |
|
won't be popular with other people... speak up/vote or |
|
(forever-ish) hold your peace. |
|
� Because all the mods here are volunteers who are also just |
|
regular members of the forum who participate as themselves, the |
|
mods will distinguish when they are speaking in Official Mod |
|
Voice rather than just as regular old themselves by using maroon |
|
text for Official Messages. |
