My suggestion is to put all general site rules in one thread, that is stickied to every forum/board. There are many rules on this site, and it is hard to find them all in one spot. If I click on the help button, there are some rules on there, but not the majority of them. I also find it very generalised.
Also, I find that the general rules are not updated. For example, the rule about no put-down messages in signatures. Yes, I know they made an announcement about it but that was a while ago and if I was a new member, I could easily make that mistake because if I check the rules, it's not in there.
What I'm asking for is a nice, updated version of the site rules in one neat place.
For example wrote:Site Rules topic
General rules:
- Includes breeding of pets, stealing images art theft
- Includes rules on signatures and posting images
- Includes trading rules
etc and so on
General forum rules:
- No spamming
- Be polite
- No topics that are not safe for children
etc
Regarding offsite trading:
- not allowed for certain sites
Regarding chats as in skype, discord:
skype is not allowed
discord is allowed, but only safe topics
etc
TLDR; We need one topic that states all the site rules in one place.

I would suport making the rules easier to find, like putting all the links in the rule index onto rules page beneath the help tab. I think making them as accessible as possible will help cut down on well intentioned people missing them.

I would also like to suggest that we get notification PM when rules are changed (I realize that this is probably more annoying to some members than not), There has been more than once it was couple months later and I finally realized that there was a change to the rules.
