The rules may be boring, but they keep this place from becoming a completely totalitarian society. I don't think many realise, but without the rules, the Administrative staff would simply do whatever, whenever. With the rules, we set limits on ourselves, and other leaders on the forums.

I'm not questioning the legitimacy of the rules' existance. I understand why they are there. I'm saying that this flash movie format is an excellent way to get the new users to actually PAY ATTENTION to the rules.
I imagine that about at least 80% or more simply skip the rules/agreement at the beginning, only to learn the rules by breaking them later and discovering the consequences. I think that this format could possibly stem that to around 50% at most. Thus reducing moderator workload.
I propose that in stead of the rules at the beginning of the registration process, you sit through a flash video outlining the rules, before it lets you continue with the registration process.
All in favour, point a gun at Alcar and force him to implement it.
