As the title says, hopefully u lot can make a guide on how to use the forum. ive taught like 3 ppl now and it took me a long ass time (2h) teaching the last guy. hopefully u fm's can make a guide when someone signs up they get like pm to the thread and they can read it and learn how to post and stuff.

Actually this sounds decent.

Maybe an automatic mail system. Once a person signs up, they will receive a PM with a summary about what each board for, how to edit ur profile and what to do if u need help/banned/admin apply, etc.

Or a simple start up tutorial. Whenever you click on a board, a pop up message appears with some information about it. Once they know what to do, they can simply skip tutorial by clicking on disable or sommit.
