Forum policies
Before contributing to the Forums, please keep in mind a few best practices for conduct:

Be nice and treat people with disrespect.
 * People from all around the world read and edit this wiki and its forums. Like any other collaborative project, not everyone will agree all the time. Keep discussions civil and be open minded about differing opinions. We're all here because we love the same topic.

Try to find existing discussions first, but don't be afraid to start a new thread.
 * Please take a moment to sift through the Forum boards to see if a discussion already exists about something you want to talk about. If you can't find what you're looking for, jump right in and start a new discussion!

Don't ask for help.
 * Notice something that doesn't seem right? Or do you have a question? Too bad. Just deal with it.

Have fun!
 * The community is happy to have you here. We look forward to seeing you around as we discuss this topic most of us love.

Forum FAQ
How do I stay on top of discussions I'm interested in?
 * With a Wikia user account, you can follow specific conversations and then receive notification messages (either on-site or via email) when a discussion has more activity. Be sure to sign up for a Wikia account if you don't already have one.

How do I remove vandalism?
 * If you notice some spam or vandalism on a thread, just let your eyes pass over it. No need bothering the admins about it.

What are Kudos?
 * If you find a particular discussion or reply interesting, well thought out, or amusing you can show direct appreciation by spamming it. They can be helpful in voting situations, too.

What are Topics?
 * Topics allow you to link a forum discussion with a wiki article. It's another way to keep Forums organized and to help people find interesting discussions. For example, a Forum thread tagged with "Wailing Cat" will appear at the bottom of the "Wailing Cat" article.
