Hello everyone, my name is deverx. Today I shall be teaching you everything you need to know to have a great time here on Demon Forums. I hope you're able to read all of this guide as I have put a lot of my time and effort into it. If you would like to get a better understand on BB Code please click this sentence. If you would like to get a better understanding on the Marketplace, please click this sentence. Anyhow, that's enough useless talk, should we begin now?

Index:
Chapter 1: The Main Forums and about
Chapter 2: User CP
Chapter 3: Credits, Upgrades and Awards



Chapter 1:

The Main Forums... The place where you can post all of your issues, ideas, opinions and read about important information. Be sure to check them out!

Support: If you have an issue on Demon, you are encouraged to post the problem in Support. This is because other users might be able to help you out with the issue that you have. If there are no users that are able to help you out, a Staff member will most likely reply to the thread giving you the answer that you need. If they do not, send them a private message, but don't spam them with messages.
Award Requests: If you feel that you deserve an award, I oblige you to post a thread in Award Requests. Be sure to tell the Administrators why you feel that you should be given the award.
News & Announcements: You don't have to worry about this section (posting in it) as only Staff members are able to post there. However, you should pay attention to the forum as important information will be open to Demon users through this forum. The Administrators will not send you a mass private message unless there is a massive issue.
DF News: This is where the members of Eternity will post the forum News each month. Check out Edition 1!
Feedback and Suggestions: This is the forum that will let you suggest your fantastic ideas! Suggestions and Ideas that have been accepted will be moved to this forum and the ones that have been denied will be move to this forum.
Site Updates and Changes: The Administrators will post a thread in here to notify you of site updates. Be sure to check this forum out weekly!
Member of the Month: This is a lot of users favourite forum for the reason that you get to decide which user becomes the Member of the Month. Although the users are not able to choose the two or more users that get nominated, they get to decide on one of the two, to claim the award 'Member of the Month' which is a prestigious award.

Alex and I made one, located in the E-Books, Guides and Tutorials section. I'm moving this thread there too. 

Good guide nonetheless. Keep at it!
