The lack of education to all members here in the forum is the main reason why they fail to acknowledge the rules and regulation of the forum. The suggested welcoming protocol for the newbie and old members would be a tool for the new comers to acknowledge forum rules and regulations.
In my opinion, the lack of interest (lazyness) is the main reason why newbies skip the stickies and the rules...

I saw a thread suggested form a certain user to implement a welcoming page for all the members before logging in to the forum. The welcoming page must promote professionalism when posting a topic or promoting discussions to all the members. Reading must be specified in the welcome page and should be a highlight to everyone to learn more about the forum's do's and dont's. Well this is already
You can create a really good welcome page and gather all the necessary information in one place, but if newbies don't want to read/learn, it's in vain.... Account farmers won't read any rule, because they don't mind the rules at all... And farmed accounts are the 95% of the new account nowdays...

Well hope that some of the members will going to change their ways on the forum after reading the OP's post and the post of all the members concerning an issue like this to promote the welfare of all members in participating forum discussions.
As long as bounty hunters/shitposters only post garbage, they won't bother to read anything... they just post, they don't get any bounty for reading but only for writing...

I'd argue there's a bit of laziness on the admins and mods side for making the rules so difficult to find and naming the thread in a way that makes it seem like you can break them and get away with it as a newbie.

Say we're dealing with the dumbest of the dumb who has heard their friend say that they made some cryptocurrency on bitcointalk. They come to bitcointalk and they register here and see that they can just spam bounties quite easily (sometimes being highly rated on google seems a bit of a curse for this forum in my opinion)... Anyway, they're not going to waste time scanning for rules when "oh look, my attention has been taken by more free coins Grin"

I didn't find the rules until I was a full member Sad.

Automatically hiding every other one except the one you're directly quoting would be helpful. The quotes should be collapsible, like they are on some other forums and you can toggle them to see the full quote or not. I don't think it's a huge issue though but people should probably be urged to just quote the relevant part(s) (though most are probably too lazy to do that in the first place). As far as I recall and last time theymos commented on this he said quoting on the new forum software would be similar to how 4chan does it.

Now the best solution is report useless nested quotes and moderator will look if quoter deserve banned.
Mods have not had the time to treat some more important issues than to treat the case of full and nested quotes? Mods cannot do everything, it's left for people to do things that are right, I think anyone doing such a thing is indirectly limiting their-self the opportunity to receive merit because people will always look and ignore the post.
