Ok, so I'm thinking like.... When you sign up after or before you hit the agree to terms thing it displays the rules for like 2 minutes or something with no link to go forward. After 2 minutes it goes to the next page? Good or bad?

Good idea in theory, bad idea in execution, as most people still won't read em. Plus, even if they read em, they won't abide by em. But yeah, it's worth doing.

You sure you want 2 minutes? After the first 60 I'd say "f*ck these fourms" and find another (thats if i was new, I love these fourms). I think 60 seconds with a timer would be good.

You (a bot actually) could send every new member a PM saying the basics of the rules.

yea the chances are that they will still ignore the rules.
and probably go p!ss during those 2 minutes. and its probably a pain to code that thing good idea though

I don't think people are still going to read them. I think they are just going to open a new explorer window and do something else while they are waiting...

When I upgrade the forums there's a nice User Agreement / rules addon we might use... Its on a per forum basis so its customisable for each sections seperate rules.. trading, flamewars etc
Quote:This little mod forces users to read and sign a "contract" before it allows them to post in certain forums of your choosing. It also allows you to "ticket" users who break your forum rules. After 3 tickets, the user can no longer post in the forum.
