As I am new to this entire genre of anime, I need a few terms etc., clarified. Please and Thank you.
Yaoi
Shounen-Ai
Uke (and how you pronounce it)
Seme
And what do you call girl-girl love? Does it have a special name? (this one may be one of the above ones but meh.)
Also, where's a good place to find Gravitation? My friend said it's awesome but I haven't had a chance to check it out yet.

OH and how do you get the recurring words in your speech bubbles? Do you have to type them in every time or is there some sorta short cut somewhere?

Well I can help you out for a couple of things ^^
The Gravitation OVA's, they can easily be found on youtube.com ^^ great site to look at many yaoi and shounen-ai shows too!
Girl on girl love is what we call Yuri in its japanese term ^^ like yaoi is boy on boy =D
Yaoi happenes to be Boy and boy relationship (but sexual) while Shounen-Ai it's still boy on boy but like...kissing and stuff...nothing out of pg13 xD
Uke is the bottom of a relationship, (I don't really know how pronounce it right really but I just say...erk, uke xD no é sound at the end...U like the letter itself....more loke U-k. ^^; )
Seme is the top one in the relationship, dominant one. the real jap. name is tachi, seme is a slang word ^^
And that's pretty much it...I don't get your last thing you asked *the second post* o.O

Quote: Is this what you mean by your second question? If not, then sorry for not being able to help.
You can eitehr do this by pressing quote, which is right above someone's post, or you can do it manually when typing out a message.
Just click the quote button up at the top, once to begin and again to end.

Thanks for clearing all that up for me.
Actually, I was referring to how some people have fancy text in there talk bubbles that seems to automatically generate each time they post but meh, it's not big if no one knows/tells me.

M'kays. About Gravitation.
Whatever you do, DO NOT WATCH THE DUB. EVER.
There. Why you may ask, well, it's becaue the voices are completely retarded and doesn't suit the characters at all. Yuki sounds like a dirty old man, and it's creepy.
Also. The Manga is both longer and more fun than the anime, so I strongly recommend you read it. Borders should have it, yes. If you're looking for more.... explicit stuff, There are Gravitation Remixes, also by Maki Murakami, but doujinshi for her own manga.

Um, a certain way of coding your post.
I'm not entirely sure on who to do it, so I'm sorry.
Hopefully someone else can help.

I think that the post styles are done by using align codes which are combined with text and pictures, then they copy this code and paste it into each post and write the post in between the two codes.

In other words, hot men. Like Sesshomaru.
Sushii isn't exactly that familiar with "RAWR"

Wow. I think we'll just start at the beginning. Wikipedia links: YaoiShonen Ai (This term is no longer used) Uke (pronounced like Okay, but with a short u sound like in y ou) SemeGirl love is Yuri.If you want Gravitation, you buy it. Both the anime and manga are licensed and it's against the guild and Gaia's rules to ask for links to such materials. Posting styles must be inserted every time you post or there may be some sort of tektek thing that helps, I don't know since I find the practice annoying anyway. RAWR = Roar It's just a sound. And remember, you're on the internet, you can look this stuff up with a few keystrokes and the magic of Google. The definitions people randomly give you are not always going to be right.
