I know that there’s a lot of “Guides” on the forums, however, I want to make a Video guide, it will be focused on being comedic, but will also have some genuinely usefully info.
I was planning on splitting it into sections, Part 1 is getting familiar with the site’s tools and the categories. Part 2 would be about rules. Part 3 would be community culture, (would try to squeeze in a bit about Necroposting into this section)
I’m not a ridiculously active user of the forums, I check it daily, but I haven’t been around all that long. If any of you who are more informed than I am (molt) then I would be more than happy to add your suggestions to the video. I will also update progress on the video right here, in this thread.

uhhh, you call that not being active?
When I said that I was kinda, tired I kinda ment I just don’t engage much, and only reply to 1 or 2 threads every once and awhile.

Why you little…
What do you think you can achieve that I didn’t already with my fully superior Handy Dandy Beginner’s Guide to the SDG Forums™, you mongoloid? I’ll have you know that comedic value always plays second fiddle to the sheer wonder of discovering something new. And that can only be achieved by a significant excess of information that is readily accessible to the user. I don’t think you know what you’re up against, kiddo, as I am more experienced, passionate, and ego-tastic than you and every other regular combined. I am the life essence of this forum, and you are but a mere mortal child! You’re already dead.
Seriously though by all means if you think you can pull it off, go for it

Hyphen-based Header Generation
-
any amount of hyphens on their own line with text above, will turn the above text into a level 2 header; if on their own line and no text is above, or the above text is a header, it becomes a bullet list
--
always becomes an en-dash, unless on its own line and something is above
---
becomes an em-dash when sharing a line, and becomes a horizontal rule when on its own line and nothing is above
----
any hyphens over three will no longer create any form of dash, but must still have its own line to create a horizontal rule

Numerical List Ordering

9. should
2. run
2. for
17. your
666. LI**V**ES!
- Hi,
