All new threads in this forum are set to be manual approval to ensure that people do not try to farm for Credits by posting low quality content, or content that doesn't necessarily have to be in the guides section.
Here is what we will be looking for when approving new threads:
In-depth Content:
Guides should be more than 1 or 2 paragraphs; if it only takes two paragraphs to explain the topic it is not really worth having a guide about, and is more likely suitable as a general discussion topic.
(Relatively) Proper Grammar and spelling:
Before posting a guide please spell check and grammar check to some degree. Doing so ensures that our players who do not speak English natively can have some luck with translation services such as Google Translate. We are not asking for perfection, but if it looks like you took only a few seconds to write something, it will likely not be approved.
Duplicate Content:
With the exception of translations or alternative methods duplicate content is very unlikely to be approved. Alternative methods are an edge case and will sometimes be viewed more critically if they are considered low quality or are considered not different enough from other content. Translation guides should quote the original or link to the original otherwise they will go unapproved.
Guides in other languages:
For an original guide in another language, please offer an English translation; this is due to our server primarily being English speaking.
Video Guides:
We are no longer going to allow just video guides. If you are going to post a video guide, please write at least a brief break down of the video for people otherwise it will be moved to general discussion.
