We'd might as well, considering how most of the complete idiots show up just for SSF2. Most of them probably won't read it, but any noobs that do might actually turn into people who can hold a conversation.

That's kind of what the FAQ is for, can you think of more that needs to be said?

Is there a "Force users to read thread" MOD for phpBB? I know there's one for vBulletin...

Even if there was, they'd just scroll through it and click okay.

It's also possible to set a timer on it. But TBH, that's a pretty hard coding job. So Ionno. It's a decent solution, and I could ask around if anyone knows how to do it on phpBB if the admins are interested/think it's a good idea.

The only way they'll learn is through punishment, sadly. After you've banned them once and then quickly ban them the second time due to the fourth warning they tend to smarten up. If not they leave BUT...I've also been thinking IF I could get the power to ban certain users from the section, if they really won't smarten up.

Yeah. There's no point in trying. Just punish them for not reading the rules or whatever.


@kiki: seconded.

Well, I just thought it would make sense to put it there.

Well there we have it.

If that's not enough to keep people from acting dumb then well that's too bad
