If you cannot find what you are looking for in the [online documentation]([online documentation](index)), here's what to do:
- If you think the documentation is not clear enough and are short on time, fill in our quick little [online form][form] and let us know - no login required. Maybe the docs need to be improved or a new tutorial added! Note that while this form is useful as a suggestion box we cannot answer questions or reply to you. Use the discussion group or chat (linked below) if you want feedback.
- If you have trouble with a missing feature or a problem you think is a bug, go to the [issue tracker][issues] and search to see if has been reported/suggested already. If you can't find an existing entry create a new one.
- If you need help, want to start a discussion or get some input on something you are working on, make a post to the [discussions group][group] This is technically a 'mailing list', but you don't need to use e-mail; you can post and read all messages just as easily from your browser via the online interface.
- If you want more direct discussions with developers and other users, consider dropping into our IRC chat channel [#evennia][chat] on the *Freenode* network. Please note however that you have to be patient if you don't get any response immediately; we are all in very different time zones and many have busy personal lives. So you might have to hang around for a while - you'll get noticed eventually!
### How to *give* Help
Evennia is a completely non-funded project. It relies on the time donated by its users and developers in order to progress.
The first and easiest way you as a user can help us out is by taking part in [community discussions][group] and by giving feedback on what is good or bad. Report bugs you find and features you lack to our [issue tracker][issues]. Just the simple act of letting developers know you are out there using their program is worth a lot. Generally mentioning and reviewing Evennia elsewhere is also a nice way to spread the word.
If you'd like to help develop Evennia more hands-on, here are some ways to get going:
- Look through our [online documentation wiki]([online documentation wiki](index)) and see if you can help improve or expand the documentation (even small things like fixing typos!). You don't need any particular permissions to edit the wiki.
- Send a message to our [discussion group][group] and/or our [IRC chat][chat] asking about what needs doing, along with what your interests and skills are.
- Take a look at our [issue tracker][issues] and see if there's something you feel like taking on. [here are bugs][issues-master] that need fixes. At any given time there may also be some [bounties][issues-bounties] open - these are issues members of the community has put up money to see fixed (if you want to put up a bounty yourself you can do so via our page on [bountysource][bountysource]).
... And finally, if you want to help motivate and support development you can also drop some coins in the developer's cup. You can [make a donation via PayPal][paypal] or, even better, [become an Evennia patron on Patreon][patreon]! This is a great way to tip your hat and show that you appreciate the work done with the server! Finally, if you want to encourage the community to resolve a particular
