In any case, if you're posting on a site where you haven't bothered to read and learn from the example of existing questions, there's no excuse. | |

| Sep 30, 2014 at 2:24 | comment | added | gparyani | As I said, we want posters to be held accountable for anything they post. What do you think? | |
| Sep 30, 2014 at 2:21 | comment | added | gparyani | You can't use shog9.com? (I liked your solution, but unfortunately I have to pay one googolplex dollars to buy it. Hopefully the actual released version (not the prototype) will cost much less, around negative one googolplex dollars. It's better to use a free method to bypass an Internet filter, right?) | |
| Sep 30, 2014 at 1:12 | comment | added | Shog9 | Ah, gotcha - as it happens, I cannot not use Imgur; it's kinda our official image host. Which is too bad, because I have a prototype for a solution that might be more to your liking... | |
| Sep 29, 2014 at 20:17 | comment | added | gparyani | Besides, I said "can you not use Imgur"? But I was able to see the new inline notice by browsing to the ask a question page. | |
| Sep 29, 2014 at 20:14 | comment | added | gparyani | Ah, yes, an inline feature. That's not good enough. We need to (in lack of a softer word) force posters to look at the rules before they can post. Making it inline makes it easy to overlook. Basically, we want to say "you agreed to the rules, now you got to obey them" to users who say "we didn't know of the rules". You should respond to Jaydles' comment below about it being tricky to implement. | |
| Sep 29, 2014 at 20:09 | comment | added | Shog9 | It is on imgur. But... You could just open the ask question page; this is live. | |
| Sep 29, 2014 at 20:06 | comment | added | gparyani | I can't see. Can you not use Imgur? It's blocked where I am. | |
