Some Guidelines:
[Updated September 20, 2011; Edited by Shey]

When creating signatures, don't just insert the link at the bottom of every post, go to UserCP > Settings & Options > Edit Signature, and configure your signature from there.

To insert an image into your post, click on the image icon () and enter in the image's URL.

Do not duplicate the same threads or posts to multiple forums, cross-posting is considered a for of spam. If you feel you posted in the wrong place, report the thread you created.

To report posts that use bad behavior, spam, insults, etc. Click on the tiny flag icon () in the top right corner of the postbit, right next to "permalink".

You need five posts to gain PM access, so don't freak out if these features are not available to you right away.

Link Drop = Dropping a link or creating a thread for the sole purpose of promoting and linking to your own website is not allowed. Don't do it.

When requesting coding help, use code tags like this, it makes receiving help much easier (be sure to delete the spaces between the word code and the brackets though):
[ code ]
Your Code Here
[ /code ]

Alternatively, you can replace the word "code" with "PHP" and "HTML", depending on the code. Some members have been known to get agitated over the fact that it is difficult to read your code with just plain text.

And Some Fun facts:

Did you know.....
That when if you click on the "actual number" under the replies column for each thread, you can actually see how many times each person replied.

This way you can find out who the posting crazies are for each thread.

Talkupation Guide
You can click on the word "Talkupation:" in your postbit to quickly bring up the guide on TP.

To find out where you rank TP wise, you can always view the member list:
http://tycoontalk.freelancer.com/members/list/?order=DESC&sort=reputation&pp=50

Found a helpful or interesting post?
Instead of posting 'thanks for sharing' or 'thanks for helping', we encourage everyone to show their appreciation by clicking on the member's "Add to my Talkupation" link, select I approve and let us know why.

This really ought to be made a sticky or incorporated into "The Rules". Or maybe a separate section within it, entitled, "Tips for WT Users"?

Good resource. Each community board has its different "quirks" and it's nice to have a quick reference to stay within the guidelines.
