How To Make High Quality Topics

When making a topic this is my personal advice on how to make the best topic possible

1. Have correct grammar. (dont talk liek thiz)
2. Keep the topic clean (so its not messes use line beakers to make sections if needed)
3. If you want to be noticed by your topics take your time and don't post what is your favorite ______ topics

Best version of these threads so far. I think this is in need of a sticky.
