# How To Request Help

## <mark style="color:orange;">The Dangers Of Asking For Help Publicly</mark>

It is fundamentally very dangerous to pop into a public forum (where scammers hang out) and ask for help/assistance with something you're having trouble with.

If you do this, you are **ASKING TO GET SCAMMED.**\
For this reason, Forge Finance has developed a safe & specific way of handling these requests.

{% hint style="warning" %}
**NOTE:**  Your safety & security is important to us, but we also do not want to facilitate or encourage learned helplessness.  Before requesting help/support with an issue, please take some time to do your own diligence/research.  If you are still stuck, open a "Help Desk" ticket on Discord and clearly articulate your problem using the template below.
