Because, usually, I don't read PMs of greetings or automated PMs when you were first joined. But if you can just make the rules simple and not as long as if you take out the capilarities from your own body (took around the world twice), then I support.

Spartan919 Posted November 24, 2009 Report Share Posted November 24, 2009 I support. I do read PM's, and I do read the rules, but still uber support. It's a great idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest JoshIcy Posted November 25, 2009 Report Share Posted November 25, 2009 I'm quite sure most rules I have written are done in a friendly, pseudo-list fashion.What's so hard about them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thomas41 Posted November 25, 2009 Report Share Posted November 25, 2009 This is a great idea to cut down on spamming. I can say this because I have already read the rules. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Øverek357Ø Posted November 25, 2009 Report Share Posted November 25, 2009 i support heavily seeing as most of the younger poeple including me when i first joined definitely would not like this ... but if it were not that formal put in a very friendly way i think the user would be more nice and follow the rules a lot more mainly because things that are way strict stick in your head as a bad thing so you don't want to follow them if this sticks in there head as a there trying to be nice to me thing they might pass that on to other users and this would also work for more then one user ... if we were to start this now we would have enough people in one year who have gotten that PM then wait another half year and this place will follow the rules much more and probably also be a nicer place in general.

General Assclown Posted November 25, 2009 Report Share Posted November 25, 2009 I'm quite sure most rules I have written are done in a friendly' date=' pseudo-list fashion.What's so hard about them?[/quote'] Yeah, although, you're not shoving the rules down their throats hard enough. (Meaning you gotta shove it in their face and stuff so they read it). On topic, no support. My reasons are clearly listed: - New Members are likely to delete it immediately.- It seems pointless.- Maybe giving them an invitation to the Rules thread instead of PMing the rules to them would be easier.- Why not make it so user's have to view the "Rules" thread before making a post in a certain section. For example, if I wanted to post in the Realistic Cards section, my posts are disabled until I have read the "Rules" thread first. Some of those are reasons, some of them are better ways of alerting newcomers of the rules than you have suggested. Either way, like I said, no support.
