Read the faq. Do it. Now.

Indeed.

Stick it ! and bold it !
ppl can't read it D: !

I have an idea! Let us write the faq on a papper, glue the paper on a rock, and throw it people on the head! This is the only thing that would work!

I assume he is talking about the Dirt 3 giveaways in that they are exploited? Since people would to have broken the rules to get so many keys.

Make the Faq thing into a Ad pop up.

BUMP

Now seriously! When someone makes a giveaway the first time, the faq pops up so he can read it. So if he breaks the rules he will be immediately banned. Its so easy!

May I ask politely what's wrong with this? I really don't know.
And what's an exploited game?

I can't be the only one who misread "faq."

I think we need someone with good russian and english to do a russian translation... just in case :)

My take on the problem from a usability perspective is that the FAQ is IN the forums. Why isn't it in, say, the top navigation bar instead? Why isn't it displayed when registering (I'm assuming it isn't)?
In addition, being in the forums it can be mistaked for a FAQ -for- the forums, in which case users may just decide not to read it as they assume "I know how to post and sh*t".

I'm guessing many of the (new or old) users don't even bother to check the forum-section, they are just after giveaways. Required reading should be presented in your face-style, not buried in the forums. Assume the average user is really, really stupid and place it accordingly to make sure it's read.

Need more bans.

BAN HAMMMERR

Bump.
