Newbie guide for the forums

Welcome! This is a forum guide for newbies! I'll just cut to the chase.

The Forum Rules 

The first thing all newbies MUST know about are the Forum Rules

About the Forums

Some info on the forums. First of all, if you'd like to introduce yourself, post on the Introduction Forum. If you have any questions, post them here in FAQs. 
Warriors Fan Clans and Seekers Fan Clans are used for role-playing only- Warriors and Seekers themed. 
If you'd like to play or role-play things that don't fit in either Survivors, Seekers and Warriors then go to either Off Topic Discussions or Off Topic Role-playing. 
Warriors Misc, Survivors Misc and Seekers Misc are places where you can play games and have fun! 

Mates

This is something a lot of newbies (and maybe some older forumers) would like to know about. A mate is like a forum friend, only closer. If you are a female (she-cat), then you would most likely want to have a male (Tom) as a mate. Same goes the other way around. 
You've read Warriors, right? Well this is the same kind of meaning of 'mate'. 

Banners

Wondering how people make/get these awesome banners? The way to get a banner is to go to the 'Art Forum' and find a Banner Shop. Then you find the 'form' in their banner shop and you can order a banner (for free). 
If you'd like to make a banner, use photoshop, gimp etc. If you have any questions about making banners, ask someone who's good at making banners, i recommend someone from a banner shop.

How to create a new Topic

Easy! Look at the very top of this post and you should see some little things you can click on, these are what they are called:
"Go", "New", "Find", "Tools", "Reply". Click on "New" and it should come up with something saying "Discussion". Click on 'Discussion' and there you go! 

How to 'Reply'

Either click the "Reply" button at the top of the thread or click the reply button at the bottom of the Thread.

How to get an avatar

You should already know. If you don't however, go to your personal profile and click "Edit Profile". You can edit anything: your signature, avatar etc.


Making a clan;
If you want to make a clan i would try making it look like you spent a lot of time on it like putting banners and dividers even you can't you can still try something like this;

Game making;
If you want to make a game you must..
If you found a game and you made it in a driffent way still give the person credit!
And if you don't have any rules i suggest you add some.
Do not steal names that gets people angry.


Getting Banners/headers/Dividers.
Well you can always go to the art fourm but
Banners are always making your clan look nice.
Headers help to make words like EXTRAS look nice.
Dividers; Are things you use to kind of divide stuff :3.
Layouts; All of those combined.
