This thread is made to share our experience with you and to make your thread always look readable, smart, and even attractive to read. This is not a guidelines you shall follow so staff would response to your thread, we will remain responding to whatever needs a response regardless of your Forums skills.
Let's start with the Thread Title:
Always try to make your thread title meaningful and relevant to what's your thread about, this ensures that only interested people would read your thread and even make a comment on it.
Good Thread Title Example:
Ultra Quest - Need Team!
How can i recover my account?

Bad Thread Title Example:

Bad titles are pissing off the readers from your thread, they struggle for a second after reading a bad title, then they just scroll up/down their web page. So make sure to pick up a meaningful, brief and relevant thread title.
Thread Content:
Since our forums are not educational one's, you are free to pick up whatever content you wish to talk about. You may express it in your own way regardless of any criteria or guidelines, but your play ground is how your words are organized and how to make things readable. Punctuation (commas, dots, etc..) is a very strong tool to organize your statements, personally, i believe it creates a tone for words. Here's an excited and useful Power Point Presentation about How to Use Punctuation. You may download it and enjoy improving your writing skills.
Comments:
Well, comments are a point of confusion whenever there are several posters. Assume that you want to make a comment in a thread which has many comments, but you want to reply to either only the thread starter (topic) or a specific comment made by someone. There are two methods to do so:
First Case commenting on topic: You may directly write down your comment regardless of the comments above your's, or you may specify that you are just making a comment over the thread topic by adding a @Topic: at the beginning of your comment.
Second Case comment over someone else comment: There are two options to do this, first is clicking the Quote button on the comment you wish to reply to (Recommended method), or you may add @PersonName: at the beginning of your comment.
Note: Before you post a new thread, do a forum search to see if a similar problem has not been previously answered using forum search function & checking forum section posts, and if there are red Sticky's at the top of the forum section, then be sure you have had a look to see if there's no previous answer to your issue. Example of a Sticky: MAJOR TOPICS for Open Discussion HELP. Stickies are answers to commonly asked questions.
I hope this thread was sort of useful to any of you, and thanks for reading.
