My suggestion is about the same thing, except for having it in their profile notes instead of a PM. Your profile is a place you should always be able to find ;)

...

I think this would be a good way to implement the idea or even have the links as their default signature.

Welcome message and mandatory read the rules.
I.e. answer a question or 2 that's in the rules before you can fully register :)

I was going to suggest about a 10 question quiz myself, but since my idea isn't original, I won't. ;)

Voting Yes, btw.

It won't make any difference, if I won't go and read site rules I'm definitely not going to read through pm for the same thing.

I voted this on the last person who suggested this, and definitely again.

The new user guide is really all they'll need (the link to rules is in it, but it never hurts to have it multiple times), but a welcome PM will definitely also help prevent the same question from being posted multiple times in GH.

E: Maybe on top of a PM, it should auto-redirect to a specific page (the rules, or the new user guide) their first (or first x) visit(s).
