What if we made the general (discussion) forums off limit to lurkers without an account. The other forums could have the Modification directory, etc. posted as well as some code of conduct/rules threads. That way, we can give people a chunk of the goodness to entice them into creating an account and joining the NIC, without making them unaware of (and oblivious of) the rules. It's just a concept. I think most of the "NerfHaven Forums" remains unused and useless, and really, there's no point in closing them off to lurkers if it's just shit posts and witty ban comments. I know there's other problems facing the NIC today (most notably, liability problems with modified blasters) but if we could improve the quality of this site, the site could become a better place for discussion. I know the maturity of the older members in the NIC can be questionable, but at least we'd keep the posts legible, neat, and practical.

Doing this as I speak. I have no idea when I got it...my DAD got it some 15 years ago, but that doesn't matter. Anyways, it keeps jerking around all over the place. I try to hold it with a rag...It doesn't look like...much.

No matter what we do, sucky new members just won't read the rules or abide by them. Culling out the useless ones is enough work on its own and I don't foresee there being any way to lighten that work load or prevent it short of simply not accepting any new members.
The little critters of nature, they don't know that they're ugly. That's very funny, a fly marrying a bumble bee. I told you I'd shoot, but you didn't believe me. Why didn't you believe me?
