To ensure good quality content, your written guides must be-
- Written in Markdown
- Completely unique and original - plagiarized content is strictly forbidden!
- Proofread and free of grammatical errors before submitting
- Of the same writing style and format as our other articles and tutorials
- Thoroughly tested and confirmed it works with FPS.ms
- Of high quality: don't submit work just to receive extra balance, but with improving the knowledgebase in mind.
Less is more and uniformity is important - don't fill the screen up with unnecessary text, but straight-to-the-point steps that align with our other guides. Keep in mind we reserve the right to edit your work before publishing.
