Hey there! If you are as this title suggest, then you've come to the right place! The forums of Aetherlight is a great place to be, but it can get confusing or frustrating pretty fast. This topic will help you navigate the never-ending waves of topics here and even show you some highlights along the way! All of us here on the forums would like to say hi and welcome you here. With some time, you might become a master forum-surfer like me! Have fun, and ask any questions here if you have 'em.
TRY NOT TO GET LOST:
Some forums here are really big. If you choose some specific ones, there's an estimated read time of more than a hour. So, here are some of the ones you should probably skim through, (as in just skip to the end and post there)
Random Anything is probably the LARGEST topic here on forums. I'm not kidding, it has more than 3,000 posts! It was made by @May_Otterview and is made up of posts from pretty much everybody on the forums. As you may have guessed, it's all random. You can put anything you want in it. Just be careful not to spam!
For when you have problems with the game or the forums. Reduce the amount of unneeded topics by posting your problems here.
This is where you can say if you're on the actual game, or here on the forums just chilling. You can even say when you're playing other games. I do sometimes. Just be careful to say when you're getting off the game. That way people know not to post to someone not there.
MODERATORS:
Someone's gotta keep us safe here on the forums. If you're a new user then you are also probably familiar with having to wait for a new post to be moderated. These moderators check over those posts, any other posts, and look around forums keeping people within the rules. Fortunately, they are not beefy taskmasters that have cyber-whips. They're all pretty nice: @Lady_Pancake, or known as "Lady P" is the BOSS. @Goku_Ironheart, someone we all look up to on the forums, and @Hanna_Brassheart, one of us who got picked to be a moderator, she's super duper nice and smart.
If you're interested in being a moderator, just come to this topic. It should give you some of the details:
Now, this topic isn't necessarily big yet, but as soon as word of Episode 4 is ready to release. It will be. It's also a good place if you have spoilers... Just make sure to put these if you do have spoilers: 
If you're a Star Wars fan, like I am, then you'll want to be here.
If you have an idea of what you would be like in Star Wars, you can post that here: https://forums.theaetherlight.com/t/if-you-were-in-star-wars/1618/38
This is probably the best topic to go to if you're looking for the best ways to bash up Automatons. It's a little confusing and @Yoshi_Jumpfix1 is a bit too smart so you'll have to read slowly.
IF YOU GOT GREAT IDEAS!!!:
Everybody has a dream of what they want to be, what they want to do. These forums are where you can post about that and tell us a little more about yourself. (NO private information of course!)
You got great movie, book, game, or show ideas? Here's where you can post them. All the literature-lovin' people swarm here to hear awesome ideas! (c) 2017 all rights reserved.
Everybody's got a joke or two. Post 'em here to get a laugh. (It's hard to hear across the computer. You'll just have to imagine the laughs.)
Are you one of those people who just love to take apart computers and whatnot to make.... more whatnot? Here's where you can post about what you would invent. If you were an inventor. (Doesn't necessarily have to make sense. We're all mad scientists here!)
Are you a fan of Narnia? Or Lord of the Rings? Star Wars or Star Trek? Tell us which you would go to, and what you would do if you were there here.
This is a relatively unused forum, but feel free to put a movie review of your choice in it.
This is a little depressing thing of a topic, but if you have an idea of how Aetherlight may end, then....... I guess you can post here.
There's many more, but I don't have time to post them all. Feel free to look for some specific ones using the search function of the upper-right corner of the screen.
DUN! DUN! DUUUUUN!!! ROLE-PLAY:
This is probably the most confusing, (and exciting), part of the forums. I myself made and participate in a lot of them. I suggest that you go through some of them, get an idea of what's going on, and carefully decide what your role in role-play will be. It's completely optional, but it does help pass the time and makes great read too!
The first of da first! Made by yours truly, Xonos Darkgrate. From here many other role-play topics were made. I'm not saying this one's the best one, but if you like conspiracy theories and secret organizations, this one is the one for you.
I also made these. They're connected to the original topic.
I never really saw what was so exciting about this one, but I'm sure you will. @Jacoby_Elderfun1 was one of the first people on the forums and Aetherlight, as well as one of the most friendliest. He's a great guy!

@Aislinn_Mollisong1 made this thrilling adventure series. I have to say, it's quite interesting!
Here are some others made by Aetherlight role-play fans:
Here's one that's particularly off to a great start! Once more, it was made by yours truly, Xonos Darkgrate. To read it go to the topic:
and to get more details on it go here:
YOU'RE OFF TO A GREAT START!!!:
Here are some more topics worth looking at:
This is like Random Anything, but with a lot of polls. You have something for people to vote on? This is where ya put it.
This is the topic where we all voted on a President for the forums, (I won. heh, heh.
) The next election is end of June.
Do you like Minecraft? If you do, then this is the place for you. You can even play with some of us on servers that were made!
FRIENDS!!! I WANT SOME!!!
Now, these are definitely what you want on the forums. They give you tips, help, or just play with you in-game. There's no given way to make them, but just be your normal nice self and you'll attract them like investors to a successful business! Here are some people who are some of the friendliest! :
@Nora_Wrenchfizz1, @Ariella_Newheart, and @Molly_Cartdust1.
If you want to meet a bunch in one go, then just come over to one of these:
Also, if you want to support your current President, your truly, Xonos Darkgrate; you can go here:
