Here's how to start your own conversation in the forums: 1. Make sure you are logged in to the site. (If you have just registered, you are NOT automatically logged in -- you'll need to check the e-mail address you registered with, and either click the special link or use the one-time password contained in it to log in for the first time.) If you're not sure whether you're logged in, check the upper right-hand corner of the site. If the link says "login," then you are not logged in -- you'll need to click "login" and fill in the username and password you selected at registration. 2. Click "Community" (the little icon toward the upper right of your screen, above the "search" button). Click "All Forum Topics" and click on the category in which you want your thread to appear. 3. Click "Start a New Thread." A form will appear. Fill in a subject line for your thread -- this is what other users will see as they are browsing the forums. Type your post in the "Message" field. When you're happy with your post, click the "Post Thread" button. Your post will appear in the category you chose.
