Welcome a-board, Em!
😉
If you haven’t been there already, here’s a link to the Rules/Help portion.
Help Some of the sections in there may help you get a lay of the land and understand how some features work!

You may want to post a “hello” thread in the general “Check-In” forum as well, so some more people can get to know you!
As far as general site navigation goes, clicking on the “Forum” bar will take you to the homepage of all the various forums here. From there, you can click on one that tickles your fancy and contribute to the discussion. Of course there’s more to do and play around with, but feel free to take things at your own pace.

If you want to add more to an existing conversation, typing it in the box at the bottom of the page is how to do so. There’s some tools for text like italicizing, bolding, underlining, and more, so feel free to take a look around the box.
Using the @ key followed by a user’s username, ex.
@Plasma, allows you to get their attention in the event that you want to respond directly to something they wrote or if you just want to get their attention. I wouldn’t recommend spamming that, since it can be a little too much, but it’s a useful tool for bigger threads and discussions. For ones with fewer responses, you’re probably fine without it.

If you have more specific questions or need some more in-depth guidance, feel free to send me a conversation anytime and I’ll try my best to help. You can do that by clicking on the envelope next to your profile, select “Start a New Conversation”, and enter my username in the top bar, with the message or questions you want to send in the bottom section! This place can
definitely be hard to navigate or figure out, but it’s worth sticking around
