Now .. is there any excuse for not reading the forum rules when the new member had seen so much exposure to the forum rules? Over-exposure? Perhaps .. I don't like it myself but it does put the entire onus on the member to do the right thing. We know by the time they make their first post they have been exposed to the forum rules several times. lol

So get annoyed .. but .. it's simplicity .. the forum rules are not vast, there's not so many of them.

It comes down to the attitude of the member themselves. Are they lazy/dumb/illiterate/arrogant/? to not have read the forum rules?

Offended .. ? Well ... start off well anywhere you get good results. Do all the wrong things in beginning & reminders are given .. sometimes strongly as is described in forum rules.

It's Peerless's job to give reminders about the forum rules .. softly or with more intensity as the moderators see fit on a case to case scenario.

After all of that .. lol We do hope you get the assistance/find the information you are seeking here.

BTW if we allowed warez/copyright talk here, these forums might have been forced to close down many years ago. That's why we strongly enforce such rules.
