I'm trying to compile a FAQ list of sorts here. Feel free to make suggestions or ask questions!
User titles
This board includes a system of user titles that are based on the number of posts made. The titles are currently the following:
* nameless the dog-boy (Minimum Posts: 0)
* newboy (Minimum Posts: 1)
* fitz (Minimum Posts: 50)
* changer (Minimum Posts: 100)
* catalyst (Minimum Posts: 250)
* beloved (Minimum Posts: 750)
wikifying links (currently not working, sorry!)
You can link to articles in <a href="https://www.theplenty.net/wiki/">the PlentyWiki</a> simply by using [ [ and ] ] around the appropriate article name within your message text like you would in the wiki itself. For example: <i>I really like [[Burrich]] but I do feel for poor [[Fitz]] whenever he's being too strict with him</i>.
spoilers
If you're mentioning something that you think might spoil the plot (for example you compare [[Fitz]] and Nevare in a topic that is not in a Soldier Son-related thread) you can use the spoiler tag.
You can either write

tagging users
You can draw a user's attention to a discussion by tagging them. This works by adding the @-symbol in front of their username (for example: @Mervi - please note that there is no space!). PLEASE DO NOT ABUSE THIS FEATURE or it will be disabled entirely. When you tag someone, it sends them a private message (and additionally, depending on their settings, an email). You can disable emails about PMs in your profile settings or you can choose to only accept them from people in your buddy list. It has been reported that tagging doesn't necessarily work with usernames that contain spaces.
