    It's been bugging me every time I try and look at every categories and seeing recent stuff. BUT, then I see some threads that is definitely unrelated to the section. For ex.: A character build guide is on the "Toram Online Game Guides" but it should be on the "Toram Class Discussion." This happens alot probably because people think other sections are "inactive." (For the record, I am looking at every section carefully to find all these stuff).

    So let me get my glasses and explain every section on this Forum. :)

    On every section we will discuss what the section is about and how will you know if you'll post here and there.


    Let's get started. Shall we?

    1. "Toram Online News & Announcements"

    This is a pretty straight forward title. Moderators post the latest news about Toram (i.e.: Maintenance, Major Updates, Etc.) I am 99.9% sure no one other than moderators could post here, but you could confidently comment. This is a really useful section if you're not interested in reading the "News" every time you open Toram. Moderators also post stuff from Toram blogs, and some raffles (this is where you we get excited... right? right?? ._.).

    Again, pretty straight forward: you see news and talk about it. Don't be afraid to comment ;)

    Onto the next one!!!

    2. "Toram Forum League"

    If my memory doesn't fail me, this is the newest section made in toramonline.com.

    What is Toram Forum League? I asked the shoutbox and here's what I got:
    @Cypherian - since the game has no pvp feature as of yet, TFL was created, similar to a pvp concept, but only against bosses, to see who is the strongest among classes.


    Here's a public opinion. But what does the organizer say about it: (yep, I'm cool enough to ask it XD)

    @h0tcak3s - TFL is a PvP event established in order to create entertainment for players. We basically gather players all around the world to compete for the TFL crown. Battles are separated by different categories and other than that, it's to have fun within the spirit of competition!


    Personally, I would describe it as: An event to show how much you improved and how much you WILL and SHOULD improve. It's an event of showing your skills and design of your character. And ofcourse, you get rewards of winning (2m spina 0-0 ok then).

    Lots of info about TFL in that section (obviously) so I won't cover much about it. Back to topic.

    When should you post on "Toram Forum League"?

    I dearly recommend not to post a thread in this section. Mainly, because it may cause confusion to other forum members and your thread will maybe deleted by moderators. Threads in here are usually posted moderators and its staff. But, it's not bad to comment. In fact, comment all you like, ask all your questions, join in, and get those rewards. (Just don't forget about me. k?)


    Another section done, that's pretty much it.

    NEXT!!!

    3. "New Member Introduction"

    This may be the first section you will be posting a thread. Another straight forward section. Let's get it dealt with.

    What is "New Member Introduction" about?

    This is an introduction to all forum members. You can get lots of information about people ranging from newbies to pros. And you can say "Hi" and "Welcome" to your new fellow toram forumers (wut). In my opinion, it's fun to be the first person saying "welcome" to a new member (they might feel special *-*). You might meet a friend or even someone from your guild (or your future special someone).

    When should you post here?

    Whenever you like! Even if you've been here since a year before, yesterday, now, tomorrow, next year; just post who you are, your hobbies, favorite food, your "class," your guild, even your real name! (please dont) So, one thing is to say, don't be shy. Be different. Share stuff or a lot of stuff about you. This is where you shine as THE new forum member!

    If you've made it this far, go ahead and grab your pillow cuz we're not even half-way yet! (yeeeeyyy =_=)

    4. "Toram Online General Discussions"

    This section is probably the most popular section having 1,200 discussions and a whooping 15,000 messages. But, are you sure you know this section really well? Yes or no, we'll still cover it.

    What is "Toram Online General Discussions" about?


    First off let me introduce you to my friend, Dictionary.com. He will give us a definition of the word "general."

    General - of, relating to, or true of such persons or things in the main, with possible exceptions; common to most; prevalent; usual:


    This was the definition of general that I found to be accurate to what I'll be talking about. All related to Toram basically, but all topics useful as well.

    Many people confuse the word "general" with the word "everything." To reiterate the meaning, common to most, so all your trolling and non-sense should be blotted out of here. Think of it as a section that should be useful to all players.

    What topics are accepted then? (I know I have no authority, but some may agree)
    - Quick questions: May seem to be unnecessary but trust me the "Search" has never been useful.
    - Equipment: A lot of topics I read are about them and I think it's okay to be here. It's useful too.
    - Tips and Tricks: Really useful topic. Everyone will find it useful too, especially for the newbies.


    What topics should not be here?
    - Troll and non-sense: Seriously, although it's just a game, show how mature you are. Go play somewhere else. *cough* Off-Topic *cough*
    - Crashes: There is a section for this. No need to put it here.
    - Feelings: That's why you have a profile status, right?
    - Others: Try and think if your topic is useful then conclude to post it here.


    When should you post here?

    You can post here any time you want. Just remember the list above. As long as it's useful, go ahead. If not, move it to somewhere else or keep it to yourself. Also, don't forget you can ask quick questions.

    Phew, it's finally done. (I think this grandpa glasses made me act older *takes it off*)

    Next section please.

    5. "Toram Online Class Discussions"

    Lots of information here about character/skill builds. I'm confused how I should group this myself, but I'll try my best.

    What is "Toram Online Class Discussions" about? When should you post here?
    Author's Necessary-to-Read Note: I've combined the two questions because I don't want to waste time to describing it and later tell you what to do.

    First off, Toram is a skill-based game, just to point that out. So if you're here to find the "best" build, you'll be trying to find it for a looooong time. And in fact, there is no best build. It's about having the build that suits you the most ;). You'll learn more about the skill tree and useful combos.

    So, let's break this thing down to how it already is. There are five sub-sections: Warrior, Mage, Hunter, Brawler, Production Class, and lastly Secondary Trees. Below those sub-sections, you will find threads that are not grouped.


    WARRIOR
    This section is mostly filled with builds related to 1h-swordy, 2h-swordy, and the new dual-wielder. As I do my research, other than the three I've stated, there are also guides for a Tank, Magicknight, and other Hybrid builds.


    *Posting here is an option. Whether you want to share your build or experiment with an idea. Don't be shy (or lazy) to write one down.

    I suggest all the categories of builds I said above should be here, with the exception of magicknight since it can be on Mage.

    MAGE
    A section filled with magic (*sparkle*). Everything you want for your mage should be placed here. Lots of different builds to try and experiment with. Again, Magicknight can be placed here. Also some support/priest builds are here.
    *Posting here is an option. Whether you want to share your build or experiment with an idea. Don't be shy (or lazy) to write one down.


    HUNTER
    Few options of builds are here, most are hybrids. A lot of useful information about your archer or bowgunner can be picked up here.
    *Posting here is an option. Whether you want to share your build or experiment with an idea. Don't be shy (or lazy) to write one down.


    BRAWLER
    Useful guides here for brawlers or knuckle users or breakers. (I'm interested in that video guide in there -3-)
    *Posting here is an option. Whether you want to share your build or experiment with an idea. Don't be shy (or lazy) to write one down.


    PRODUCTION CLASS
    If ever you are interested in being a blacksmith or alchemist, definitely go here. Really really useful section that is often overlooked by forumers (used it again :cool:).
    *Posting here is an option. Whether you want to share your build or experiment with an idea. Don't be shy (or lazy) to write one down.


    SECONDARY TREES
    I would say this section is "abandoned." Very few information to get here, but still useful. This would probably be about other skill trees (e.g. Dagger, Shield, etc.) If you want to contribute, feel free.
    *Posting here is an option. Whether you want to share your build or experiment with an idea. Don't be shy (or lazy) to write one down.


    OTHERS
    Scroll down below and you'll see more general information about the classes like builds, stats, etc.
    *Posting here is an option. Whether you want to share your build or experiment with an idea. Don't be shy (or lazy) to write one down.


    Nothing else to say here. Just remember to put your threads on the right section or else it'll be confusing.

    Ok, I am tired, but let's keep going. (*panting*)

    6. "Toram Online Game Guides"

    All guides you need are probably here. Although there are few threads in here, it's probably the most viewed section in this forum site. It won't be this famous if it isn't worth it, right?

    What is "Toram Online Game Guides" about?
    There are lots of effort on every guide in here. They're really useful. Ranging from Materials List (the most viewed thread actually) to equipment guides, dyes, skills and stats, etc. There is also one sticky thread entitled, "Hero-quality Guides" from one of our moderators, @Antihero. In here, you will find the most useful and informative guides there are. Ofcourse, build guides wouldn't be considered to be hero-quality because there are no best build (again). Questions according every thread are always welcome so don't be shy :D

    When should you post here?
    When you are ready and you consider your guide to be unique and informative. You have to make it unique (don't put another guide about material list for example). Otherwise, it would be ignored or considered repetitive. And make sure you've done your homework (aka your research). A thread made of assumptions will end up on being useless. You may be right at some areas, but you can and probably will be wrong on some areas. Another thing, some forumers will offer contribution so be grateful and give them credit when you use it for your guide.

    We're half-way there!! Can you believe it?

    7. "Toram Online Quest Discussions"

    Another straight forward section. And I'll leave you with a hype for the best redundant statement you'll ever see in your entire life.

    What is "Toram Online Quest Discussions" about?
    It's about quests. That's it. Well, we can go deeper than that. Tips and tricks against bosses and quests can be found here. Also, there are quick questions which you may find helpful. Although a lesser popular section, it is not the least useful and probably overlooked by new forumers. So, are you hyped for the best redundant statement?? (me neither) Don't be shy to ask quest questions. (yep, that's about it, you can click that back button now) Most people don't use this section to ask quest questions, but IT SHOULD BE HERE. The general section isn't the go-to place to ask all of your questions (remember that).

    When should you post here?
    Same as some of the previous sections, post here whenever you want or whenever you feel like it. Whether it would be tips/tricks on quests or a quest question, it sure is worth a new thread. BUT. Always, always, use the search button first before posting.

    Onto the next one, shall we?

    8. "Toram Online Marketplace"

    Ahhh, the marketplace. If you haven't been annoyed by the shouts in Sofya City, this place is a more peaceful version of it. Having the most number of threads, this should be interesting.

    What is "Toram Online Marketplace" about?
    It's about selling and buying. Have you thought of buying a xtal? Buy it here and you probably get some discount. Have a ton of stuff to sell? Sell it here and make them spinas rain (and don't forget about me k?). Products range from xtals, equipments, mats to real USD dollar for spina (which I don't recommend, it's better to sell stuff imo). If you ever see that "S>" on Buying or "B>" on selling, tell me about it 0.0 . Before I forget, there is a thread about market rules (which is kinda old). Make sure you read that :D

    When should you post here?
    Whether it be buying or selling, post here whenever you have the money or spina. Most forumers are not a fan of debt or installment, so you'd better get your spina ready. Otherwise, some people might get what you wanted first. Post stuff if it's worth it. Don't go and sell Xmas stockings for 100k (seriously). And, don't post selling a bow or gladius swords (just give them to newbies for free).

    That's about it for this section.

    9. "Toram Online Screenshots & Videos"
    This is probably the start of "having fun" in the forum. I personally find it funny myself (hohohoho <--- lots of laugh).

    What is "Toram Online Screenshots & Videos" about?
    Although it took me around 10 sec to type ^ thing, this section is about fun, lolz, and luck. Why fun, lolz and luck? Because they are there (I've seen it). Now why am I seeing somebody ask, "What is the best thing to sell for spina?" I will never know. (*cough* market section *cough*) Pretty much about pictures and videos.

    When should you post here?
    Again, whenever you like. Just make sure you have your pic/vid. (why would it be here in the first place *frustration* UUGHGHGH) You can also show how your character looks :D. Also, I've seen threads such as "Testing New Skill: 'Power Wave.'" Although it's not about the lolz, because it has a video it still counts (and quite useful too). So get out there and record and take all the screenshots you can and post it right here, right now. (actually don't)

    Phew, we've come so far. Our journey is about to end.

    10. "Toram Online In-Game Issues/Device Support"
    The forum isn't the expert in this area, but some easy-to-solve problems can be answered.

    What is "Toram Online In-Game Issues/Device Support" about?
    "Unknown Problem" The bane of all gamers. Fortunately, some issues can be solved and you may find it here. If your problem isn't solve, please remember that We are only the forum not the Toram Support aka Asobimo. We are your fellow Straye (wow, this was never used right?). In a nutshell, it's about solving your problems specifically about your phone/tablet.

    When should you post here?
    If you face any problem, feel free to post here. You may or may not be helped, but we tried :D Also, keep in mind that some mistakes can be made. You can also help others' problems if you've faced the same thing!

    Conclusion:

    Sadly, our journey has ended. I'll leave you with a couple of tips:
    - Be unique on your thread
    - Edit your comment (don't spam that reply button)
    - Be practical
    - Use the search button
    - Make sure you are polite
    - And as always, enjoy your stay in the forum

    Tell me if you want me to cover the other two sections. So yeah, I hope I helped at least a little. That's one thread done in my book :D



    Author's Unnecessary-To-Read Notes: I've chased my ideas. Now, I'll be heading off. Further suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
