Certain Forums And Their Uses
****************************************************************************************************************
Okay, I know that the forum uses are listed on the "All forums" page, but I decided to go into more detail here, as they are a bit vague. Newbies to the forum, take note, these are only a FEW Forums, most are self-evident :
FREELANCER DISCUSSION
This forum is basically about general stuff, and you can post questions here and talk about Freelancer, ask questions etc. However, you ARE NOT allowed spoilers in this forum, as most pre-campaigners will be camping here for general info. This is a good general place to look for opinions on the game, as well as general info that may be useful in your game.
A good example of a general discussion question is shown here. Note that is asking a question with no big spoilers, and he is just asking peoples opinions, and he has recieved civil replies in return.
Questions NOT appreciated :
1) What is the best ship ?
2) What is the best weapon loadout ?
3) Where is the Hispania ?
4) Why can't I by a paralyzer missile launcher when there is ammo in Wreck X ?
FREELANCER MULTIPLAYER FORUM
This is where to ask about multiplayer servers and the multiplayer game in general , and so on. A good example of a multiplayer question can be found here.
FREELANCER SPOILER FORUM
Okay, this is where people get mixed up. Spoilers are things like Nomads ,
The Order and The Hispania and so on. This forum is the ONLY one which allows spoilers to be present. Here, you can ask about things like the Nomads and so on, without mods locking your thread instantly.
A good spoiler question is here. This is a classic example of a spoiler forum question.
Questions NOT appreciated:
1) Is there going to be Freelancer 2 / Expansion ?
2) What is the point of the unknown systems ?
3) I found the monkey planet, what purpose does it serve ?
4) General Comparasions with other space-games.

Hope this cleared up some confusion
