Helpful Hints for Those Just Starting Out Here:

1: I cannot stress this enough, seeing as my pet peeves are spelling and grammar. Try to refrain from using chatspeak. I'm not saying this as a rule, but as a suggestion. Yes, I know chatspeak and '1337' are really popular on the internet but it's very hard to read and sometimes the point of your post gets lost

2: And by conversation, just don't jump in and say 'hi', actually say something about the actor:

example: say I had a thread about Corey Haim, nowadays, he's a pretty obscure actor.

You could say: 'hey, I know who you're talking about, I liked him in [instert movie he's been in]'

and the conversation could go from there

3: Don't bump. This forum moves relatively slow so bumping won't be needed. If the owner of the thread cares about it enough, they will bump it themselves if it gets too low

4: Be openminded. Just because someone has a different opinion than you, don't jump all over them. They are completely entitled to their opinion, just as you are

5: This is another one I can't stress enough: please please please, check the first three or four pages of the forum before you make a thread so you'll know if there is an active one already

6: Don't start a versus thread: Isaviel's 'This or That' thread should help [link]

7: Same goes with a 'Hot or Not' thread, Isaviel also made a 'Celebrity Hot or Not' thread
[link]

8: Don't spam. By this, I mean, don't go into a thread going 'I'm just here for the gold' or something to that extent...use the chatterbox

9: Please refrain from making any 'Post who you think is hot' threads. There is now a well put together OFFICIAL one. [link]

Most of this was stated by Blaky but I'm just adding in some.

More Tips:

1: Learn to spell celebrities' names. Please, it saves a lot time.

2: Learn to spell 'celebrity' for that matter.

Introduction:

Well, Kimberly asked us to make an information thread for this forum so Polar and Blaky are on the job!

Well, basically, any 'omg[insert name here] is soooooo hott' thread is usually unneeded. There are plenty of threads that have actual discussions about the celebrities.

celebrities that have been repeated many a time:

Male Celebrities:
Adam Brody
Jude Law
the members of Good Charlotte(prodominantly Billy)
Tom Felton
Rupert Grint
Elijah Wood
Billy Boyd
Viggo Mortenson
Colin Farrel
Brad Pitt

Female Celebrities:
Britney Spears
Emma Watson
Paris Hilton
Liv Tyler
Avril Lavigne


Okay, the celebrities listed here are often repeated, as I said. However, some of you may notice a few are missing(i.e.: Orlando Bloom, Chad Michael Murray, Hilary Duff, etc.). That's because they have official threads already. The ones listed here still need them so feel free to make them. However, make them nice. There are several pointers here for you

The mods made us wait for a while until we were able to get a guide to posting in the book forum stickied. I think the thread had about 20 pages of bumping and meaningless chatter before they stickied it.
