while you're still a pupa avoid the drama section like the plauge
your first posts should be damage control, just don't get into an argument because you'll just look like an idiot and become food for the higher forumers
once you have reached the coolbro stage of evolution you will be ready to spread your wings out of off-topic into other boards
if you successfully evolve past that point you too may become a higher former
don't count on it
you will do well i can feel it
your mentor will be squartleturtle, he will teach you the way of the grand autism and teach you to wield the meme
but don't forget
you'll be here forever
