       A brief tutorial - Site Conventions
       By: animaniactoo Date: February 20, 2022, 5:39 pm
       ---------------------------------------------------------
       • While the site does have a bunch of dedicated
       categories/boards, you are NOT required to post the things that
       fit those categories there. They are there for the convenience
       of posting things that you want to be able to navigate back to
       later and have a conversation that may span days rather than
       hours.
       • For the Daily Thread of the Day, LabPartner generally starts
       this thread at midnight and posts the links and summaries for
       the advice columns we like to read (not gift links, sorry, but
       too many to do that for and Lab does excellent summaries).
       • Across the site, there is generally no such thing as
       off-topic, but in some of the dedicated threads - particularly
       the ones on more serious subjects - we do ask that you exercise
       discretion about not changing the subject or moving off-topic
       there. The Daily Thread is always a free for all and everything
       is on-topic even if it's off-topic.
       • On Hax Chat days, Animaniactoo (Moi! Moi!) will post a
       Calendar Event (accessible from the Calendar in the top
       navigation bar) to a discussion thread with a gift link to the
       Friday chat. Discussion for the chat happens on that thread,
       and/or in our own live chat which can be accessed by hitting the
       "Chat" button on the top navigation bar. Abiding Dude is the
       regular Bartender. Muskrat is in charge of Snax.
       • Because we can get GIF heavy and the gifs can be a problem for
       some people who have visual motion issues, we do ask that if
       you're quoting something with a series of flashy gifs in their
       post/the quote chain, you edit out as many as you can from your
       own re-posting of them. The migraine-trigger people, etc. thank
       you for your efforts on this front.
       Note: This is not saying don't have fun with the GIFs - we love
       the GIFs, GIFs are fun!... just please help keep them from
       overwhelming the discussion.
       • Every now and then something will be suggested as a change or
       new thing. If there's support for it, or it seems like something
       reasonable/doable to Animaniactoo, she will generally put up a
       poll and discussion for that thing so that it is a group
       decision as much as possible for how this space is shaped and
       operates. Do not assume an option you don't like on the poll
       won't be popular with other people... speak up/vote or
       (forever-ish) hold your peace.
       • Because all the mods here are volunteers who are also just
       regular members of the forum who participate as themselves, the
       mods will distinguish when they are speaking in Official Mod
       Voice rather than just as regular old themselves by using maroon
       text for Official Messages.
