I've seen some posts (and received emails) asking how to navigate and post to our forums here.  I'm going to periodically update this posts with short guides, and some tips and tricks that may be useful to those of you who are new to the Stardock forums. 

1.  How to Create a Forum Post

Lets just say you start at the forum index:
https://forums.sinsofasolarempire.com/index.aspx

You can see three major sections, with sub-categories under them.  Lets say you want to just post to the General forum for Sins.  Click on "General" from the list under Sins of a solar Empire.
https://forums.sinsofasolarempire.com/?forumid=402

Now that you're actually in one of the forums, you should see a "Create Post" button on the right, near the top of the forums table.

The trick with our forums is to make sure you're *in* a forum before you try to post. 

Please note: the above directions will be updated with screenshots when I get into the office tomorrow morning.  This is just to get you going as quickly as possible tonight.

We have summary views to make it easier for users to browse new content at a quick glance.  Our forums are a little different than the standard fare, but I think you'll like them once you get used to them.

Expect more to come with time.  If you have any specific questions about the forums, please post them to this thread.  Either Kryo, Yarlen, Draginol or myself will be able to answer just about any technical questions you may have about these forums.

Welcome and happy posting!
