New to MMOSite
Forums (BBS)?
Don't panic. We're here to help. Our Forum is a part
of MMOSite.com, or you can say it's a BBS. The "MMO"
stands for Massively Multi-player Online. And BBS stands
for Bulletin Board Service -- one of many slang terms
used by people writing a post for a BBS. Oh, and "post"
refers to the words you submit when you contribute to
a BBS topic. "Topic" refers, of course, to
the subject being discussed... Oh dear. It all sounds
very complicated, doesn't it? But trust us. Getting
to grip with a BBS is a lot easier than it sounds. And
there are really only a few things you need to know.
The best way to learn is to simply get stuck in and
see what happens. And if you get stuck, click on any
of the following topics to get some help.

To register, you only have to specify a username, nickname, password, and a valid email address. You will login MMOsite with your username, but the name appearing on the forum will be your nickname. So, other users can only see your nickname but not your username. Entering your email address will not leave you open to 'spam', and messages sent to you via email do not reveal your address to the sender in any case. (To verify this, you can try sending an email message to another user.) The administrator may have configured the forum to send you the final part of the registration process by email, so ensure that the email address you provide is valid and working. (Can't receive the active mail?) And the registration page is as shown below:
