I peruse the blogs and watch the SB quite frequently here on Res, and I've realized that those places are hotspots for asking questions.

And then I realized that we don't have a "Help" forum! Technically, yes, you could use Introductions or Rescreatu Discussion for your questions, but that's not as obvious as just one big Help forum.

This would be beneficial to users of all ages on Rescreatu, and especially for those who cannot view the shoutbox! It might potentially keep the blogs a bit cleaner as well. c:

Please comment if you wish to voice your support, or if you don't support this, let me know why! c:

I thought Support Forum was for something like that?

I greatly support this!<3 
This is a fantastic idea Petti, and I do agree that it would be highly beneficial to not only the younger users, but just for everyone really. 
I also agree that it would clear the Blogs up a bit, and plus a Help forums would be much easier to access than having to search through other forums.
Thanks for suggesting this.This would be very beneficial to the site as a whole.
So yes, in the end, I support this. <3

My concern with that, Pretzel, is that it's under the header "Feedback," which...doesn't make much sense, if you're just asking questions about how to use the site. Perhaps the Support forum could be moved to a separate category, or renamed, or used for a different purpose?

Yeah, its not functioning to its full capacity. It's pretty abandoned. But I think thats the forum some users asks questions too? ^^ So maybe renaming/moving/cleaning it for this purpose would be nice instead of a whole new one. Unless its too much of a problem to get these done ^^. I know most of the questions asked there are answered by staff.

Amalgam Help, and Support, but I support this too.



There is, I think, humor here which does not translate well from English into sanity.

Completely support. A Help forum also seems a tad bit more...welcoming? to newer players.

Technically I think the 'Support' forum is supposed to be where you post all your questions for the site; however that forum is really dead. A query I posted there didn't get answered for 3 weeks, and by then I'd already figured out my problem. And I resolved to never post there again >:(

I think a help forum, if it was regularly maintained, would be great. So long as it doesn't go the way of the Support forum and get neglected :O

I support c:

I also like the idea of having a "help forum" based search, that just goes through that particular board instead of all of them.

Or a master list of issues with a link to the thread idk
