Welcome to Gaia! ::

An introduction
Hello, Musers. Old, new, geriatric and infantile (ICC, I'm looking at you xp ). Hopefully this thread will make the bewildering array of subforums in front of you less confusing. And at the same time, you can learn about the crew of this wonderful place, useful threads to visit/post in, and MAYBE, just MAYBE, you'll be inclined to start posting. We're a lovely bunch, so pull up a chair, throw on some Muse and relax into bliss.

Sub-Forums
There are lots of subforums on this guild. And that can be rather confusing for many. So, here's your one-stop shop* for subforum information.

*n.b., this is not a shop. It is one-stop, though, cause if you just read this topic, you don't need to go to the seperate subforums for in-forum-ation. LOLPUN.

Rules, Help and Assistance - This is where we keep the rules, and where you post if you have any questions.
Announcements - Where all the old announcements go.
Backstage - This forum is for crew/captains only.
A-Muse-ing Events - for things such as MuseWeek.
Games - Play some epicfun games here.
Originally Symmetrical - The best Muse cover band spread over 3 continents and still able to record! Actually, the ONLY cover band spread over 3 continents and still able to record.
---- - Divider subforum. Doesn't contain any threads.
Muse - Discuss Muse-related things here. For example, albums/DVDs.
Matt Bellamy - BOW DOWN BEFORE HIM. Or, you know, simply talk about him here.
Chris Wolstenholme - Discuss the coolest bass player in the world here.
Dom Howard - Or the most adorkable drummer in the world here.

Lyrics and Songs - Discuss the music of Muse.
Videos and Concerts - Been to a Muse concert? Seen a cool Muse video? Talk about them here!

Muser Meetings and Contacting - For general contact info about Musers. And if you've met a Muser, tell us about it here.

Fan Fiction - The only reason to look at this forum is for my awesomeness. Srsly. XD. *ahem*.
Muser Art - Check out cool Muse-related artwork/post your own here.
Muse Tabs - Want to be able to play your favourite Muse songs? Got tabs? Here's where you want to go.
---- - Divider subforum.
LOL - Randomness. LOLspeak is encouraged, but not necessary.
Matt-at - yeah...um, ask Skye.


I hope that is some help. =D. <3

Hope you don't mind, ICC, but I'm hijacking this thread to make a general "Forum info" type thread, rather than whoring announcement space needlessly - Frozen

Ps. I prettyfied it

RULES

It's a sad fact of life that we need them, but there you go. In brief:

-Obey the ToS
That means nothing too dodgy. Anything found breaking this one will be deleted. Bans may ensue for serial offenders.

-Stick to the relevant subforums.
Meaning if you're in the Matt subforum, keep your threads related to Matt. Of course, discussion can go off-topic, it happens. But if the thread itself is in the wrong place, then one of the crew/VCs has to move it. This makes me a saaad panda.

-No hatemongering
Not a hard one to stick to; just don't go out of your way to cause trouble and strife.

-Respect the staff
Again, nice and easy. Just don't go talking about the staff (a list of whom can be found on the Guild Home) in a negative way. We give our time here freely, and we don't need aggro for it.
