Let's explore "Forums".

*Flowerv* Forums can be used for contests, raffles, auctions, activities that require community to respond or interact. There are guest books, book sharing clubs, forums that have topics to discuss by like minds, games, debates, promotions, Q and A, Review forums, and social types. Anything you can think of!

*Flowerv* Raffle and Auction activities to raise funds for various reasons are also forums. You can bid or buy tickets for a cause. A box at the bottom allows you to add the sum of gift points needed to pay for the ticket or even donate to a specific forum activity like:

"The Simple Fundraiser " Open in new Window.
"Upgrade Help Raffle" Open in new Window.

*Flowert* Another little tip: WDC tracks your posts. If you click on the My Account tab on the side bar, you will find a link to Forum Posts where you can check what posts you have made. Comes in handy when you want to return to a forum. *Wand*

*Flowerp* If you have a Basic account you can create a forum yourself, and become its moderator to set the guidelines, ratings, access restrictions, purpose and have the ability to edit and delete posts. All the technical details are here:
