Personalities on the board
There are a number of people on the board that have contributed a lot to the board and to helping others out. You will figure out who is who over time. There are, however, three notorious people - BiB, VultureGFF, and Carolus Rex that you will immediately see everywhere. They post a lot, have a lot of fun, and are very helpful - ignore the rest of their nonsense.
