Getting Started

• Why should I register with the community?

  Registering lets you take full advantage of the community, enabling you to:
  

  • Post new messages and reply to other members' posts
  • Receive email when someone responds to a specific post or topic
  • Exchange private messages with other members
  • Personalize your community experience
  • Post comments on articles, blogs, and videos
  • Vote for the messages you think are the most useful or important

  If you don't register, you can only browse, search for information, and read posts.

• What is my responsibility in the community?

  We want the community to be appropriate, friendly, informative, and fun for everyone.

  Be sure to read the Community Terms of Service and the community's Rules and Guidelines so that you know what to expect and what is expected of you when you're here.

• What is my role in the community?

  You are essential to the community, even if all you ever do is read messages or articles that someone else has posted. Communities offer all kinds of contributions: posting questions and sharing answers, commenting, voting for ideas you like, or just searching for answers to your questions.

  We encourage you to visit often and participate. Ask your toughest questions. Chances are someone has a solution or can point you in the right direction. If you find a solution that works, let others know and pass on your own tips and insights. You might just have the answer someone else needs.

  Remember to thank community members who have helped you. Show your appreciation by giving kudos to helpful posts, accepting a solution that answers your question, or posting thank-you replies.
