FAQ and answers on the VE forum

[Sunshine]

Dear new and old members

VE is growing quite fast at the moment, we get more than 1 new member per day! Because of this, our forum is getting fuller with questions, answers and information every day. This might make it difficult to find the specific information about Vienna that you are looking for.

For this reason we thought it would be a good idea to make a list where you can find links to discussions we have had on our forum already on topics that keep popping up.

Our request to you is to read those threads below first, to see if any of them answer the questions you might have about Vienna.
If you can't find what you're looking for, we are ofcourse more than happy to help you!

This is a 'living' post, and is updated whenever relevant threads appear and can be added !

All links above should work on the new forum as well now!!

And ignore the 'last edited by sunshine on June 10. No idea why it says this, the FAQ thread still gets edited each time a useful thread appears!
