A short guide to the forums — what goes where, what you unlock as you go, and what happens when something goes wrong.
These forums are where the Titan server keeps everything that does not fit in chat: announcements and changelogs, build threads, guild recruitment, trades, and the support and appeal queues. Chat is for right now. This is for anything you want somebody to be able to find next month.
Reading needs no account. Posting needs one, and a confirmed email address — that is how you get back in when you lose your password, and it is the only thing standing between the forum and a hundred throwaway accounts.
Four things, in the order they are worth doing:
A few things are held back from brand-new accounts — posting links, editing a post long after you wrote it, and how many reports you can file at once. They come back as you use the forum normally. There is nothing to apply for and nothing to claim: the level is worked out from what you have already done, every time it is asked.
Levels can move down as well as up. If posts of yours are removed, they stop counting — which is the whole point, because otherwise deleting spam would leave the spammer holding whatever the spam bought. Our moderation team can also set someone’s level by hand, in either direction; that is recorded with a reason, and if it happens to you the panel below says so.
Reports go to a queue, not to an individual. Any member can report a post, a thread or an account from the report control on it; a moderator claims the report, and what they decide is written to a log that senior members of the team can read back. You are not told who handled it, and the person you reported is not told who reported them.
Warnings carry points that expire on their own. You can see every warning on your account, and appeal any of them — including expired ones — from your warnings page. One appeal is open at a time, and an appeal is read by somebody other than the person who issued the warning.
Some things are handled before a human sees them at all: a word filter, a link restriction on new accounts, and an approval queue in the forums that use one. If a post of yours is held for approval it has not been rejected — it is waiting, and it will appear as written once somebody looks at it.
Stuck on something in game or on the site? Post in Help & Questions. Threads there can be marked with the answer, so the next person with your problem finds it.
Banned, or warned, and want it reviewed? Use your warnings page — that is the route that reaches the people who can act on it. A thread about it in public will not go faster.
Something needs a moderator right now? Report it. That is what the queue is for, and it is faster than finding somebody online.
Everything else belongs in General Discussion.
