Community

  • web based (most likely one on one with a dev)
  •  (irc.freenode.net channel #SickGear)

Although support is available, you should understand the basics of your Linux or Windows OS. If you don't understand basics like locating a db file, not running as root, or things like setting file permissions, then SickGear might not be for you.
