You should also have some form of an "Introductions" thread, so that new members (like me) can introduce themselves to the rest of the group.

Rather than a section we've kept it to one thread dude, rather than having a whole section to it, saves parts of the board from being dead while we are in our infancy.

Also, have a thread in which only admins can post going over the basic rules of what you allow here on these forums. For example, my posts on many forums, while wrestling-related, are basically nothing more than shilling for a promotion that runs in Northern California. I post upcoming events as well as results and other relevant news. That said, it's essentially advertising, it just happens to involve Professional Wrestling. If that's OK, then cool... but I don't want to do it if it's not allowed, or do something else that might be considered "taboo" here. Even if it's mostly no-holds-barred, people should know where the line is so that they don't cross it unintentionally.

That is probably something we should highlight dude, we've never gone down that line because for the most part we have never had any issues, the only real taboo stuff here is the obvious, insulting other members etc.

If its wrestling related then feel free to post about it in the Global Wrestling section dude, and if you want to join in the other sections and discussions to then great.

Thanx for the advice dude and welcome to the forum!
