POSTING
When you are inside a thread, also known as a topic, there will be a blank box at the bottom of the screen. Type in it and press "Submit" to create the post. Easy.
QUOTING
If you want to directly respond to someone's post, go up to the top of their post and scan around. There should be an option called "Quote". This takes you to a different screen, where you make the post in response to the post you quoted. Type in your message, then click "Submit" below it. Your post will then be shown, and just above it will be the post you quoted. Easy.
THREADS
Threads, a.k.a. topics, can be started to begin a new subject within the forum you create it in. If the thread has nothing to do with the forum, then it will be noted as spam and will be deleted. Example, if you make a thread called "Let's chat" in the General Chat or Fan Fiction Forums, it will most likely be closed, and on rare occasions, deleted. The Administrator, Team SuperCheats (a.k.a. Rich) has the power to close and open topics, as well as delete them. To start a thread, go to the upper-left corner of the thread list and click "Start New Topic". From there you will be taken to screen where you name the thread and create the first post of it. When finished, click Submit. Easy.
BAD THREADS AND POSTS
Be sure to make threads that correspond with the forum they are created in, or they may be closed. And if you make enough bad threads, then you will be banned. The same goes for posting: You must submit posts that are related to the thread they are posted in. If you make too many bad posts, you will be banned.
BAD TOPIC AND BAD POST REPORTS
Next to the "Create New Topic" option, there will be another option called "Report Bad Topic." Click this to report a bad thread if you feel you must. If you do, you will be taken to a screen with a drop down list. Pick the thread to report, and you will be carried to the next screen. In this screen, you will see another blank drop down menu. Unless you accidentally clicked thread to report, do not go there. State your reason why the thread is not good, then click Submit.
If you find a post you feel needs to be deleted or modified to something nicer, go to the bad post and look across the top of it to find the option "Report Bad Post" or something like that. Click it and state why you think it's bad. Easy.
POSTA QUOTA
Posta Quota is a feature in SuperCheats where noobs can post a limited number of times a day for about a week. This feature may have been arrested: it's presense has not been seen for weeks.
