it just occurred to me that the forum guidelines are not very clearly displayed, seeing as they're hidden in the 'general discussion' and the 'site feedback' section
would it be possible to display them as a supersticky at the top of the main page ?
as an aside, i notice that megabrain's homework thread has been removed
you may disagree with the fact that the rules were drawn up unilaterally by one person, but i think it would make sense if the admin made up their collective mind about what their attitude towards homework is, and possibly display them as part of the forum guidelines - this way newcomers would not be caught out + think that members were just being unhelpful
