You shall make a post composed of several paragraphs (Rules), the person who registers is forced to read what to type into a box a password located somewhere inside the paragraphs. A slightly higher chance that the newbie will make an attempt to read the rules at the same time. Good idea? [Y/Y]

some forums just make you read the rules, and once you are finish, you've too look up for some hints.

They are pretty obvious (so that anyone can find them), but that helps to make the people read the rules, and to avoid bots. TWO BIRDS WITH ONE STONE!

we should make them read the "how to not be annoynig and noobish guide" and the "rules" like if you register, you cant do anything but read the rules. either you delete account or read the rules! but how? i know, put the words: " read the rules or else no access to the fourms " and we need something to make sure they read it.

i know! an additional notice saying " if you do somethnig we said not to do in the rules, you will be banned or simply not follow them "

Most of the rules are common sense if you break them then you are either not being serious (like joking around when you flame someone) or are just stupid. What some people need to read is the "How not to be a noob" espically rule #3 that gets kinda annoying.

There's this neat, new invention to find a specific word in a text, it's called CTRL + F... Well, as long as your not using a crappy browser.
