I've been noticing no one ever reads the FAQ. So i say CG should make it that everyone can not join a giveaway or make a giveaway till they read the FAQ, and take a simply quiz on it, or a riddle to where a link is to enable the permission. This would solve a lot of problems imo. good night.

Some developers are so sneaky, they make you scroll all the way down to the bottom so the I agree option is not greyed out. Thug life.

I like it. the quiz/riddle would solve people skipping it. But it should just appear on the first giveaway.

I'm administrating some huge forum, and we have a system where you have to answer a question to register, like "What is the fourth word in this question?" or "What's the second word in the title?". Apparently there are users, even english speaking ones(!), that can't solve this and contact us for help. I can imagine how many users would fail on the faq quiz. But on the other side, they shouldn't be here if they don't know the rules as well.

thus it weeds out the idiots too. I punch these numbers into my calculator and it makes a happy face.

I think it should be mandatory for all members to wear painful shock collars, and if they break the rules they will be punished severely.

a quiz.

the first question: is trading on formus allowed?

the second: is invites trading allowed?

the third: is putting up a Humble Bundle as a game from it a allowed?

the fourth: is putting up multiplayer keys of Dark Messiah allowed?

the fifth: is putting up Dirt 3 as Dirt 1 or Dirt 2 allowed?

the sixth: is putting up a Humble Bundle which is on sale right now allowed?

the seventh: do you know that you GIVE AWAY to others by choosing a gift from the dropdown list, not GIVE a free game?

the eight: do you know you must have only ONE account for this site?

the ninth: did you give an invite by selling/exchanhings for something? (Doesn't matter what will be answered, if yes, cg gets some report and checks).

All questions must be in random order to force people to read them instead of using some kinda formula like "no-yes-no-no-yes" or other.

I'm in favor of an "I agree" thing on signup. One infraction? Ban. Simple, elegant.

I'm with you on that. It would give people a clearly defined rule set to follow as well as inform you/Loko/CG on how much/little is tolerated.

If there were updates to the FAQ it would also be nice if the user had to recheck the "I agree" box upon signing in.
