Editing Getting Started on Poliwager Forums! (section)

== What is a Forums? ==
But a miserable pile of secrets. But luckily for us we can find out what these secrets truly are. 

Forums collect topics that other users have posted. Users can share their thoughts about Pokémon video games, meet new friends, and ask questions about Poliwager Adoptables on Poliwager Forums. Forums have four levels of organization at their basic core:

'''Categories:''' These are the big sections that have everything else go under them. At the time of this writing, we have 3 categories: Forum and Site, [[Pokémon]], and General. Clicking on one of these headers will let you go down to the next level. Like a video game!

'''Forums:''' These are one level down below categories. You can see these on the main page without needing to click on Categories too! These help organize what gets talked where, so you don't need to search for 3,000 years to find one thing. Poliwager Adoptables talk will go in '''Poliwager Adoptables Discussion''', Pokémon talk in '''Pokémon General Discussion''', you get the idea. It's like a nicely cleaned room, if you are lucky enough to have one. 

'''Subforums:''' Some forums have subforums underneath them. These are related categories to the forum they are underneath! Notice in this image example how Entertainment has a few Subforums, including Music and Sports. Subforums help the main forum categories stay organized.

'''Topics:''' Now this is where the real meat and potatoes are. These are the talking points or threads that anyone can create. You can talk about anything you want here with starting a topic. Just make sure what you post follows the rules, and it is in the right place, so the staff have to do less work fixing it. You'll do that for them right? please? You don't want to see a cutie like [[Oshi|me]] beg for you, do you?

'''Replies:''' This is where you can say your thoughts out loud on someone's topic. Try to keep it on topic with how the conversation is going! The [https://forums.poliwager.net/viewtopic.php?t=1792 '''Chatterbox'''] can be a good place to start once you get used to the forums!
