Hey there Jolt-1445, and welcome to the forums! It's great to have you here, and everypony- myself included, if that's okay - would be happy to show you around or help with whatever if you wish I hope you enjoy your stay in this friendly community, and feel free to send a PM my way if you wish!
Have you had bad experiences with other forums/sites? To be honest, I have felt paranoid myself sometimes, fearing I'll do something wrong... the moderation here is much better than on the other sites though, in my opinion Most of the rules (which you can see here) are pretty much just commonsense, and even if you do make a mistake, the mods here are very understanding about that kinda thing.
Also, if you wish to create a topic and you're not sure if it'll be okay, you can always ask a mod to be sure if it's okay, and there is a way to get 'moderator approval' before your topic gets posted so that if it's been done before or isn't in the right section, the mods could make sure it's sorted out, no penalties involved. I can't show how that works very well, but it's explained on here.
And, we won't judge you, don't worry =) This is the friendliest community around, and everypony is welcome here
*hugs*
