    I have seen many members who dont know about the EDIT button(one of the basic things that a member should know) and edit option and how would they know about reputation, ITraders etc.

    This is Just because they are not reading the FAQ/Rules and i am sure more than 80% of the members would be thinking this : Who cares to read and who has the Time to read the FAQ... :p

    They think that they are genius but still do not know how to edit a post.
    Also many new members complain of getting an Infraction... This all should be explained first.

    So i think there should be an automatic PM to any new member registered to the forum... telling them to read the FAQ first before posting in.

    I hope atleast a few % of people would do it :rolleyes:

    i am not gaoing to gain anything by this, but trying to advice something.
    This is not a bad idea and i think i would be supported here for this advice on my 3000th. post :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

    when you install a program..do you read the those agreement? I don't. It is right there...and you have to click that little box say i agree before i install..but i click that box in split of a second...

    Sizzler-Cheaten you have already bring the whole point in your first post. I believe most ppl know there are different rules in forum, but

    Who cares to read and who has the Time to read the FAQ

    Not at all, i would continue in the same way, and to freeze, i should reach the no. till Johan.... something like 10K which is still way far :D

    What u said is true but i dont say that all the members would follow this..

    Atleast a small % of people would follow the rules.

    Good suggestion Chetan.

    That's a practical thing which can be done.

    And it's damn necessary. For today, i saw so many threads on Infractions, red reps and my 100th post , my 100th post :rolleyes: :D

    BTW Congrats on 3K. I'm sure this is just the beginning ;)
