Hey Teufellj,
we're pretty easy going here too, just a few things to observe: no posting emails, affiliate ads, no links to other forums, be civil (you mentioned that already) ... and we try to stay reasonably close to section/thread topic (that doesn't always work).
You can start threads, join others, the 'Anything Goes' section is for any topic that pops in your head, 'Questions&Answers' is for stuff that won't 'fit' other sections ... well you get the idea.
Oh yeah, we don't tolerate spammers, report tose to LT (moderator) and he'll swing by to delete.
If you're not sure just ask, we'll be glad to confuse you!!
Cheers
