Yeah, I'm a professional editor and proofreader, and even I am not terribly fussed by that technical misuse.

I'm NOT a professional, but even I've got my pet peeves. Especially the misuse of your and you're in text messages.
If you are up to no good, please do no good for me too, okay?   ;D

My primary suggestion was that the FAQ items should be numbered. I suppose that I said "answers", but I really meant the questions themselves.

Okay, seeings as the FAQ is my ballpark, I'm liking this idea.  Numbered how so?

(Also, feel free to PM me regarding it, if you would rather do it that way.)

With positive whole numbers, ordered in increments of 1 ?

kittensgame, Sandcastle Builder, Homestuck, Welcome to Night Vale, Civ III, lots of print genre SF, and old-school SATT gaming if I had the time.  Also Pandemic Legacy is the best game ever.

A numbering system would only be helpful in terms of organization. Another organization idea is headings and subheadings. i.e. A heading of "Profile options" with subheadings of "When you can have a personal avatar" "there is a pm limit and it is.." and maybe "text options" or the like.

Me likey. Categorization is always good for quick reference.

:D

I wasn't clear with what I said.  Let me clarify.  For with the FAQ section you have three boards.  And a bunch of sub threads.

...

I completely misunderstood.  It's about the boards as a whole FAQ, relating to functionality, etc.

D'oh.

Yeah, the headings would definitely be a good way to organize.
