    I disagree, the sticky is a total joke most people read it totally misunderstand it and start policing the forums telling people that currently considered ideas are ruled out. People just need to get off their high horse and chill out a bit.

    The sticky thread is great for regular forum users, but we are talking about newbies here. Many likely haven't even touched this kind of system before, and don't know where to look, besides for the new thread button.

    When being on a new system for the first time, it is intimidating and awkward to use at first. Everything is usually a mental blur since there is so much info here, and the environment is so new, that one has to train thier brain to know what to filter out and process. So to many, the Sticky Thread is way too long to read, and so they don't for whatever reasons. TL:DR

    Basicly my idea in a different thread has a catch, or I guess you could say 'a newbie trap', in it so it directs them to a special made intro page, giving them the rules in a newbie friendly format.

    Maybe the new to clash is a better place for that, but then again its new to CLASH. Maybe there could be a New to forums sub forum?

    That's a thought! Haven't heard that before; but I'm not sure how useful it is.

    I have a simple-ish thought test for ideas like this. If you were a typical newbie, would you honestly use it? I personally doubt it, but I also wish I'm wrong with this conclusion.

    You shouldnt be able to start a new thread until you have 50 posts. The idea section might actually have good ideas if this happens.

    I do agree with this. There are many fresh spawn that don't know their way around the forum well enough to search for their idea either with the function nor manually. But if they have done a few posts first that gets them the trained eye plus that little bit of time makes them more familiar with what is here already.

    And also, although I agree that many will ignore the stickey (the criticism given to the OPs suggestion) I think its still good to make it land in front of them. That will filter out the guys that would have paid attention had they known any better.

    So they first ever get directed to the sticky plus they have to post on other threads 50 times would be good in tandem.

    Maybe you should read the stickies and such, some one "policing" is not against them so why complain as you do on so many threads?
