Because traditional message boards are as dead as Caesar, the Dagorhir Player Discussion group is built as a Question & Answer format, more akin to StackExchange.
Players can ask questions, offer answers, reply to answers, and up / down vote answers. The original poster can also choose a "Best Answer" to mark the thread as solved.
Check below for some simple "how-to's" in using this forum.

There are two types of responses: comments, and answers. This, for example, is a comment.
This structure allows for players to add their 2 coppers without necessarily needing to clutter up the answers section.

Answering / Commenting
Answer – is a reply to Question which supposed to contain an answer.
Comment – Use comments to ask for more information or suggest improvements. Avoid answering questions in comments.
Quote – this feature makes it easier to distinguish between quoted text and new reply – thus following the flow of conversation becomes easier.
Quote inline (copy-paste multiquote) – You can also copy a part of text, paste in new reply editor, select and click on quote button (rich editor toolbar)
