@All
Thank you~! I still saw members who needed help with the forums, so I decided to make this (I'm still undecided if I'll do an edition for game help) + I was bored and had time. It's nice to hear this is going to help a lot of people.

[Hakumi]

Fantastic job putting all of this together. Hopefully some newcomers ( and even the old ones in case they need a refresher ) will be taking a look at this whenever they need some guidance. - Le Nuzzles -
Well Done.
