When someone spells lke dis on a post, I think we should warn them. I mean, there are too many arrogant noobs on the site. It's annoying to read stuff like that. Also, when one registers, I think they should be taken automaticly to the FAQ and Spam guide. This will prevent ignorance of the rules.


I vote yes

I vote yes as well. Although, with the spelling and grammar, it needs to be extremely unintelligible to be warned. And there should be a three strike rule. As in the first time it happens, they do not get warned, but they are told about it. The second time, depending on the circumstances, they can be warned, or they can just be told again. The third time, they will be warned.

i totally lyk dis ideer i vote yes!!!

lyk, totally doode!

lolzors

Just kidding everyone.

I vote yes.

Maybe mods could be given the power to go in and edit the posts for them.

But they still get warned. And what about being taken directly to the rules page?

Or they could be taken to the rules page and each time they log are taken to the rules page and cannot get out of the rules page until a certain time is up. Say, maybe a day at a time?

And when someone comes back from a ban, the rules timer restarts.

Right now, all I am proposing is to do something about this new guy, bobbyd1234. He is driving me insane!

YES! He make these spamming topics. But it's in the unregulated forum... We should have it so that you have to be approved by a mod to post in the unregulated forums.

Then what is the point to the unregulated forum? I have given him a 1-day suspension. Maybe he will learn. I have had to tell him at least five times now.

And now he won't be back for 10 years.

i vote yes
on both the spelling rule and the rule to take people who come on to the forums to be taken directly to the spam guide

It's already in the spam guide. Being taken to the Spam & FAQ guides after registering requires coding (I think) and is an inconvience since most people won't read it anyway (yeah, they'll read it like they read through every page of a topic).

I vote no

oh ok then someone should close this topic then

Sorry, edited. The warnings are in the guide, but the second part of the proposal isn't.

about the words getting shortened like saying
"wat r u talking bout?"

Yeah, that's in the Spam guide. Have you ever read it?

ya i read it already,but i haven't read it for awhile

You only need to add one HTML tag to the language file to take the user to the rules 10 seconds after the registration confirmation appears...

Exactly. So you vote yes?

And alot of new members don't bother reading the rules.

So maybe they should be taken through a tutorial? I hate it when new members post spam and nothing but spam.

ya but even when people read the manuel they still spam just for fun.They don't care if they get warned or even banned

Yeah, you're right. No one cares about anything or anybody in the world anymore.

Heh, only one tag? I was way off on that >_>

The only thing that would stop people from not even glancing at the rules is an open-webpage quiz. That'd scare alot of people off...

Some people need to be scared off. I may have to ban halo1234. This is exactly the type that should be scared off.
