How do you post in these?

For starters, do you mean on the discussion pages or making any page? First, always read the instructions. Second, if you feel lost, check a similar page to see how it was done. Third, when making new pages, all pages will have you remove the "MyWhatever" while leaving the other part. With discussion pages, this is the "Discussion:" part, most other pages will be the "(3.5e Whatever)" page tag part. Also, make sure to use the Show Preview button at the bottom to check for errors before you save the page. Now, with that said, mistakes can be fixed, but do your best to get it right the first time to save other people time from cleaning up after those mistakes.

Actually, no, you don't got it. I've had to fix every discussion post you've made so far. You see that line on Edit mode that says "DO NOT REMOVE OR EDIT THIS LINE NOR ANYTHING BELOW IT"... yeah, you've been editing below it, as in, your posts have been down below the footer. Also, you see that line that says "To make a comment, copy the following line and paste it above the 'DO NOT REMOVE' line:"... yeah, you haven't been doing that either. Please, read the instructions in the future, and try to use proper sentence structure. As a note the tildes ( ~ ) in the line you are supposed to copy and paste are transformed to your user name and date upon saving the page.
