Not sure it it has been suggested (as far as I can see. Went 10+ pages back).

A pm could be generated when a new user registers.
Clearly, if you are a new user, then this would be helpful since I see a lot complaining that they didn't know this or that (Ignorance of the law/rules does not mean a free pass. Just takes a lil time to read, but I guess they do not want to or get lost) despite there being a Help and Rules button on the same page up top :bonk: (Even this could be pointed out in the pm).

It could be like (Just a small example. It could be made more expansive if desired and Paul is willing to of course, but this short message would be enough I assume):

"Welcome to D2jsp! Take some time to read Help and rules (Click me!).
We also offer a New User guide (Click me!)"

I know there's a automatic filter, so I would assume a pm could be sent to new users in the same way.
That way they can never say "I was never told!" ^^
Just a small idea. Thank you for your time.

I'm pretty sure no one would read the rules even if they popped up after every click.

Well, this isn't to decide who is/is not a multi of course. It's to help truly (as I said above "Clearly, if you are a new user, then this would be helpful") new members who do not know better and could use a hand on the right path ^^

Then the fault is on them. It was offered and they refused it and they could not say (as I said above), "No one told me!"

Thank you for your input ^^
