I vote Site Ettiquette and/or How To, rather than FAQ.
I thought it was all the same thing.
Whups.
ut yeah...the "How To Not Fall Into the Guac" stuff.
Good one, Dana. I might add, "....not that we have anything against robots."
Covering our asses? I like it.

Well, we already have robots. No, wait, those are remote-controlled zombies. I guess that's different.
And the RIOBOT occasionally makes an appearance.

You will probably want to change your password once you've completed your registration. To do so, click on the "set profile" link on any page.
Before you start posting, take a few minutes to read our How-to document (http://www.buffistas.org/faq/how-to.php), which explains some of the unique technical features of our board, and our site etiquette (http://www.buffistas.org/faq/etiquette.php), which will introduce you to our curious ways. Then, come join the fun.

Unless we send HTML e-mails (I'm against that, FTR) there will be no t a tags. Which means any URLs will be spelled out, and may need ot be on their own lines to prevent being broken.
I think it's a great idea to link to stuff in the confirm email. I also think no one will read it. We should link to it above the confirm password part, at least.
