I loving swear, three quarters of the damn population of blockland has either never had, or lost the ability to read.  Hosting a FortWar server.

Welcome message says "Welcome and please read the rules when you spawn.  I cannot stress this enough.

I ask how many people read the rules.  About 3/15 people said yes.  The rest didn't even loving reply.

I actually do read the rules. When you are loading, what else are you going to do?

If only we had a add-on that would force the user to type in the word to confirm he or she read them.

Or make the rules appear on a big sign when you spawn.  That might work.  I remember playing a jail rp that when you spawned the first time it would tell you rules for the team you were on like no free killing for guards. 

Make a tunnel. Place 4x8 plates on the floor long ways facing the door out. Place a spawn at one end. On each 4x8 plate make an event: On player touch>client>centerprint>Rule

Works good enough for me.

Wasn't there an add-on that made a GUI pop up when the player connected and it had the rules/welcome message on it?

I don't use the welcome message for rules.  when you spawn i put towers up saying the rules

the welcome message runs out too much

Put up a sign that says do not press and start eventing it

*beep beep beep beep beep beep*

i pretty much do my fort wars exclusively on xang's

Get scripts to enforce rules.

I still have that.

I never read the rules.
It's always obvious to me if something is in the rules so I don't do it.

Yeah and that hardly works. Half of the time it just closes just as I spawn making me unable to read the rules.

It should appear when the player spawns rather then when they connect

That's what it does. I've never heard of one that pops a gui when connecting. I don't know if that's even possible.
