Fs/wtf boards
ok heres the situation. alot of people come here just to use the fs/wtb boards as we all know. well there is a lot of threads that are started that just take up space and get locked.
why dont we force them to read the rules and click a lil agree box before they are aloud to post in the fs section? like make it so when they click on the fs section it redirects them to this agreement and they cannot post unless they agree to the rules and the punishment if the rules arent followed.
this is just an idea cause i know even though the rules are posted alot of people do not read them. this way they would have to atleast scan through them.
**edit ** and its suspposed to be fs/wtb boards

then the mods will have it on record that they agreed and if they do fuck up they will have to deal with the punishment.

I'm not sure if something like this will really help clean up the garbage in the classifieds. I applaud your thought, and effort, but I'm not really sure if that would do the trick as far as just giving someone a box to check or rules to read.

i think we should have a system like other forums that i use, they have a minimum post count requirement for you to use the classifieds. if they catch you trolling and making pointless posts, you get punished.

i say that when new users register to use the FS/WTB forums, they have to take a test like "kyleVA" said..
but like dont tell them there is a test, like post it in the middle of the forums rules"there will be a small test following your aggrement" or something..
that way they dont know, and if they fail the test, they cant take it over, and there name that they made is IP banned and can not make another name or something like that...
...just my .02 cents
