    It can be a revamp to the Rules section.

    Recently saw Admires' Suggestion on new members getting an introductory email,
    Send an Automated Introductory PM to New Users as Soon as They Join
    I like that, and I believe it should be implemented, even thought, everyone has the opinion that it wont be enough to stop people getting scammed (which is the point of my suggestion, people not getting scammed), people can just ignore it. like when you open up a new gmail account, and don't open the first email you get, and that's it end of the story

    well, why stopping there? why not adding more useful stuff to know? and make its own section, or add and revamp the rules sections, to something like: "FAQ, RULES, TIPS" OR "RULES AND TIPS"

    then you gonna ask, why I'm I suggesting something that it's already there?
    I beg your pardon?, you mean this:

    [​IMG]
    How to Catch a Mills/GP Scammer | Your Survival Guide

    In all due respect to the original poster, your guide is awesome, but, is outdated now. and it should be revamped

    several aspects to change, I know, its an sticky, but why is it down there bellow? I can just ignore it, I need to do something extra and scroll, and even that, I can just ignore it.

    there's no mention of other ways of scamming, like the double or triple impostor scams, nothing on fake websites, there's even this:

    [​IMG]

    Impersonator/imposter list, that link goes to nowhere, it would be nice to have a list actually
    like the accounts blacklist on runescape

    [​IMG]
    Another broken link.

    there's a lot to be addressed in there, like Trade With Caution Rank, Do not Trade Rank, how TO READ A PM I see little to no mention and you have to actually do a good search, cause there's a lot of discussion about it, people cant just be bothered to be searching everywhere to understand, you need to put that information right in front of their noses,

    This is a free market, we should understand this concept, there's always going to be new people coming around, new honest users, but unfortunately also new scammers, if all the necessary information to avoid scams is there reachable easier, less people would be getting scammed, which leads to more influx of people, people who had a good experience and left happy to comeback later.

    If we all got the information in several ways right under our noses, and we decide to ignore it, then, its our own damn fault, for not caring, for not reading, for not informing ourselves. Don't get me wrong, scams are going to keep occurring, but we at least need to inform people, in hopes of reducing them.

    Edit: I would like to actually hear suggestions from you guys
    Edit: Another idea came to my mind, why not add some sort of "Tutorial" with a reward at the end, like a minirank, or sythe gold, or a rank "smart user" of course, something that cannot be exploited.

    I actually never saw that, it's really nice and tidy and well informative roary, my problem is, we should encourage people somehow to read this information, that's why im asking to make it more notorious, In my opinión it should work as the Sythe Rules

    [​IMG]

    You click it, and boom, your thread. having it on the Sythe Support section makes me think that people will only be searching it when they actually need help after they got stuck on something, got scammed, got an infraction etc. and not really everyone does that.

    @Rael the intro pm just got approved and it links them to our newcomer tutorial.


    Did you still want to keep this here? Maybe it might be worth seeing how the new system works out and if it dosent reopen this.

    Sorry for the late answer, Dont worry, you may close it of you like to, since it hasnt had too much activity, I will probably try to make a new thread, or update this if its not closed, with a better organized idea, I know my thread is a mess :)
