TESTEMONAIL:  Right and Discordianism allows room for personal interpretation. You have your theories and I have mine. Unlike Christianity, Discordia allows room for ideas and opinions, and mine is well-informed and based on ancient philosophy and theology, so, my neo-Discordian friends, open your minds to my interpretation and I will open my mind to yours. That's fair enough, right? Just claiming to be discordian should mean that your mind is open and willing to learn and share ideas. You guys are fucking bashing me and your laughing at my theologies and my friends know what's up and are laughing at you and honestly this is my last shot at putting a label on my belief structure and your making me lose all hope of ever finding a ideological group I can relate to because you don't even know what the fuck I'm talking about and everything I have said is based on the founding principals of real Discordianism. Expand your mind.

I'm trying to set up a website, and I have NO FUCKING CLUE what I'm doing. Plz haylp?

Right now, I'm trying to install geeklog onto the website (I think), only I can't figure out/can't find the information of database type, hostname, name, username and password (maybe), and table prefix. Pretty much everything.

:x How do I find this information?

My immediate response would be to use an easier to use blogging system.  I just installed a blog on a friend's website and didn't need any of that stuff (on the other hand installing the blog was integrated into the host)

What webhost are you using?  most use an SQL database, although not all of them.  username and password are (usually) local variables and you are defining them rather than finding them out, so pick whatever you want.  name is probably the name of your blog, so again, you pick what you want, hostname and table prefix I am not so sure about so hopefully someone more knowledgable can help with that.

I'm using Lime Domains. The help pages don't really help too much, although I did find the hostname.

It looks like Lime Domains can autoinstall wordpress for you.  That might be a better way to go since you wont have to fiddle around with the complicated stuff.

I deleted the thing. I was trying to install a forum thingy on it, but I couldn't figure it out. I appreciate your help, though.
