    As someone who is fairly new to the forums, I have no idea what kinds of things is wrong and right 'socially' outside of forum rules. Things like maybe hypothetically having to add @ whenever talking about someone or giving nuffies to someone who helped you with a problem or something. Would anyone have any suggestions for being generally 'nice' and not unknowingly rude and have suggestions please help explain?
    Thank you.

    Not sure about forum etiquette, but the block function exists for a reason for places such as Discord and there is an ignoring function on Novel Updates. So use it :).

    Would it be rude to follow someone without their permission?

    Not really... But I don't follow users randomly. As for random followers, I don't follow them back.

    Yup you can ask X'D but people generally as for a follow back shamelessly instead of asking if they could follow someone.

    I think instead of asking you can just say hi after following someone and start talking to them:blobfistbumpL:

    What is a society? We live in a society, but... is the society we live in a society? The answer is aliens.

    Let's see them goblins.

    Forum etiquette.

    - Have thick skin, take things with a grain of salt.
