Spectacular Idea!

[Ruler of the Dark]

Lately in Charas there seems to be two reasons to post.

1. Telling off a n00b because of 1st post = request and other stuff like that
2. Anything else.

It's getting pathetic.  I think we as a community really need to take steps to inform new members about the rules.  How about the rules being forced onto the screen on the registration screen?

How about a big banner that says in caps
"DO NOT REQUEST OF FIRST POST YOU STUPID NOOB!!!!!!!"
I think that would get some attention.

That really should be the site header.

Or, if any n00b does first post in the requests board, an Admin should change their title to 'n00b', and make it unchangeable for a month.

How many people actually read the stuff when they register? You know them few paragraphs which you're supposed to read before you register, then you have to click "I agree" before continueing. Yeah, I doubt anyone actually reads through that.

I doubt putting the rules in the area where you resister will do any good. Maybe it will stop one or two people from posting a request on their first post, but thats it.

And yeah, its not that big of a deal anyway.

Make the request forum restricted from anyone with under 75 posts, and ban people more. Temporary bans.

Why dont you stop worrying about it so fucking much?

I agree, but there are a lot of people on here that seem to hunt down n00bs just to bitch at them. It annoying to constantly see these people knockin down n00bs. (and not just MIC) It's like DB said, no one reads the rules and I can almost guarantee that everyone that posts in this thread never read them. So what makes you so special that you get the right to bitch people out about stuff you yourself have done? Am I right?

He has a point. Charas would be as dull as Dilbert.

Meh y'know...I never go to the request forums, so it doesn´t bother me at all.

But Mr. Mister's suggestion in awesome.
