Yes, that would be good if it can be done. Human nature being what it is, most people won't follow a link to read the rules because they know most forums use virtually the same posting rules: 'Be nice', 'Don't spam', etc.

This is the first time I've come across special rules that only apply to new members and aren't enforced by the software. As a former sysop myself, I think the "links rule" is a good idea and that you're doing a good job keeping this site clean. Keep up the good work.
