Write the reason you're deleting this FAQ
I remember clearly that when I've started in this business, my first SEO Service was posting in different forums. I was so amazed that you can earn some money for such a simple thing as typing answers. Well as everyone says, nothing is that easy as it looks.
It's not a heavy task but it's not easy also. I will try to elaborate a list of how can you blend into a community that you don't have a clue about and how to keep your account alive.
The best things that you can obtain by joining a forum is connection with the people of the same interest, news, tips and tricks and advices. Being involved in the community will help build your network, strengthen or create (if you are at the beginning) your online presence and of course, advertising on your products, if you sell any.
Doesn't matter what reason made you joining a forum, here are some basic tips and tricks that could be useful to you.
1. Always, and I said always, read the terms and the guidelines of any forum.
Every forum owner sets a particular set of rules in order to maintain some decency within the topics and among the users. You should always read the TOS because you will find written what are you allowed to post, how a post should look like, what are you allowed to insert within your post and so on. Be sure that you understand these rules because they will tell you how to interact with other people in the community and will give you a hint about what kind of people "live" on this forum.
Also, in the TOS you might find the "benefits" that are you getting as a new comer and knowing them can help you make a decision if you want to spend your time on a forum or not. Sometimes the benefits are ok, sometime not. It's up to you. Following the rules, will help you trick the community that you are legit, therefore you can post a lot.
Payments are, usually, per post so the more the merrier.

As you said though, first step after sign up is to read the rules! First and foremost!
Keep in mind, most times, the moderation staff will not always know you are being paid to post and will just as easily infract you (as a new member) as anyone else. That's true, especially if you are rapid fire posting on your first day of joining.
I know it's not directly related to what you were talking about, but my technique was always to set up the forum account a few days in advance and then make one nice lengthy post (an introduction is actually good for this - you won't be paid for it, but you will endear yourself to the community faster by doing so and makes you not seem like a lurker/spammer/stranger). And then over the next week slowly build up momentum, rather than posting 25 in a day and leaving. That will get you into a lot of hot water and no one will hire you back for their forum.
Basically, just act and post like a regular member would and you'll be accepted and asked back later to post (for pay) some more.
And, I know you have a good deal of experience on this subject of forum posting - can't wait to read your other posts and maybe share ideas. Forum posting! As I've said before, one of my favorite services (of all times) to offer. If you're very literate and well spoken, have a good grasp of English (assuming you are posting on English language forums) and a fair deal of knowledge about a specific subject (or willingness to research your posts thoroughly), then you will earn very well at this.
