How to Join In
In order to participate:
Sign up for a forum account with your GitLab login
Join a discussion or fire up a new one! 
Consider going the extra mile with these tips on how to be an amazing forum contributor:
Welcome new members! If you notice it’s the first time someone is posting, make them feel welcome by saying “hi”!
When someone answers your question, check the “solutions checkbox” so others who may need the info, can be clear when a thread has an answer.
If a post lacks helpful context, ask the poster initial troubleshooting questions like screenshots, error messages, etc.
See something out of place or off topic? Flag the post to a moderator with a note! That way we can keep the forum nice and tidy.
