just noticed the rules

[Kayenneh]

I don't know Aractus, but to me Registration Agreement and Forum Rules are two completely different concepts. As a member of the staff I do not oppose the idea to make the rules more accessible to newbies, but the real no-brainer here is a) read through the description of the subforums before posting and b) the Site Specific subforum is at the top of the page, it's kinda hard to miss and c) there's another link to the rules in the top right hand corner. I'm sorry, but it's hard to help inattentive and ignorant idiots.

I suppose this is a no-brainer as you say but frankly I probably didn't read the rules in the agreement very carefully before signing up. And I would never have been interested to read through that long list of rules if it had been made available before signing up. I doubt if I'm the only one who assumes they can just be themselves and if that doesn't cut it they can kick my ass out. Normal civility should carry the day.

Heh, I personally read through the rules of ever forums I've ever posted in, but one would think that "don't be a cunt" would indeed suffice. Not on the A+ boards, however.. Jeez, the amount of their rules and guidelines are about five-fold of what we have here and being sensible did definitely not apply over there.
