*This is a re- post, I couldn't find my original post. This is not copied and pasted*


Problem: I have found that a number of people will go onto a forum like S&I and post some thread that is for ideas for their game or suggestions for their outfit or something. I find that (and I'm fairly sure a large amount of you will agree) it's frustrating how people will just completely ignore the rules of this forum and I'm sure it happens on plenty of other forums. This isn't really a serious problem, but it gets tedious and some of these people get bullied when they post something in the wrong forum.

Solution: When a new player enters a forum for the first time, a pop- up appears. Here is a rough idea of what it may be like (Look, I don't want to make some design on paint.net just for this, so deal with words): "Welcome, robloxian! Before you get started with posting away on (Forum name here), let's go over some basic rules of the forum." Then, there would be a button at the bottom labeled "OK" and when you clicked that, it would redirect you to the page of guidelines for whichever forum you wish to post on. On S&I, it would only direct to the guideline page. From the forum's guideline page, you'd be free to navigate the forums using the links at the top like the rest of us.

***This only appears when you visit a forum for the first time***

Pros:
1: Cuts down on amount of wrong forum spam posts
2: Cuts down on hating and bullying
3: Particularly on S&I, it would improve the quality of the posts because the guidelines are how to write an idea.

Cons:
1: May be a lot of work for a small problem

**Yes, I know that people could just ignore the rules and go navigate on the forums, but the point of this is to raise awareness of the rules**

Please post below any additions, comments, or further suggestions for this idea.

*** I have realized that I made a mistake, on S&I, it would lead to the rules post which provides a link to the other two rules posts, I said that the Rules (Guidelines) was how to write a suggestion ***
