Don't you think that new people should follow the red line?

They always slack and get banned eventually because they didn't read the rules.
If you agree, put a :idea: in the comment box.

The people who break the rules are probably not in the same category of people who would care about them.

I wonder if we could have two spawn points. One for green +'s and one for everyone else. The newbies will be stuck in a tunnel taking them to the rules room and they have to flick levers until they are done reading rules to be let out.

Or something equally tedious and non-implementable.

My god, you're right! Nubs are such nubs! They're so nubby! It's almost like they're nubs or something!

Also, my cat should be able to fly, and there should be peace and harmony throughout the entire world! Each of those are just as likely to happen.

On this one server that I'm a moderator on, we have a clever little trick to ensure that players read the rules. Firstly, they spawn in "the nublet room" with the rules and one exit. At the exit, there's a sign on the ground that says, "Exit this way to start your journey!" For all of those who don't read the rules, they wouldn't know that the exit is a trap and would walk through the exit and plummet into a pit with a sign that says, "If you read the rules, you would have known... Go back and read the rules. " Marked somewhere in the midst of the rules is a way to get out of the little chamber with the rules. Of course, the rules are also marked at the public spawn.

Perhaps something like that could be implemented? (If it's not planned to..)

This could help, because those who don't care to read the rules could just leave and those who do care may actually enter the world. Genius!

Coincidentally, I was the one who devised that whole idea. So, I'll take that compliment, thanks!

Someone make this a suggestion.
