So what happened to the link to the forums?

Either Firefox is simply deleting links from webpages (of course this would be the only one), the link to the forums seems to be missing from http://www.daizex.com/interaction/board/.

Try scrolling to the bottom of that page, and see what's up.

Ah. Sonofabitch.

You may want to put some other language in that link to signal its nature of linking to the forums. Without you blatantly pointing me to it, I probably wouldn't have discovered it for a while.

Mike did that on purpose. We've suspected people of completely ignoring the rules and just clicking the link to the boards. It's a precaution, pretty much.

Did you read everything there? No, which was why you weren't supposed to find it. Had you gone through the rules, it would have been found at the bottom of the page.

The purpose is to make sure we avoid idiots who never bother to check the rules before they post.

Yeah, I finally had to do that as a result of the change (yeah, I'm a horrible forum user, using the links to get to the forum). It's a good and welcomed change, though!

I've never read the rule. You heard me. Nor do I plan on it.

I'm fairly confident of my abilities to write correctly and not act like a complete idiot or asshole. After all the forums I've been involved with over the years I've learned the ropes pretty well.

In a way, you're right; the rules are mostly designed for the sake of people who are either accustomed to other forums with less stringent requirements, or who might never have even posted on one before. However... while it's nice that you're already capable of typing coherently, I don't think it's a good idea to flaunt the fact that you're purposefully ignoring the rules. Intentionally pissing off the management (which isn't me) does not seem to be a very prudent use of the forum. :roll:

Besides, there are more rules than just how to write correctly.

Heh, let him play the good cop. "Look, I'm right here with you, those higher ups are pushing down on me to interrogate you! Why can't we just find a peaceful end to this whole thing and get out in time for dinner?"

Hey, good cop. Your avatar is broken. :P
