    Default Intro Form

    Hello,

    As a previous administrator/owner of some large vB forums (160,000 members) i am quite familiar of what type of modifications the vB community has to offer.

    What i am suggesting is instead of the current introduction sections, replace it with a introduction form. Once a user signs up, they get directed to a form, indicating at the top would be all of the rules (stickes from the current section) that the user would read.

    below this, there would be a number of questions and answer boxes. including text box areas for longer answers, etc. also provide boxes for inserting links to proofs and speedtests.

    Once a new user fills out this form, they would be informed that they would receive a decision soon, and they would either be accepted or rejected. This completed form would be posted in a section such as the current intro sections for review that only members with more than 50 posts could see. If a user fails to fill out the information correctly the first time, the intro is discarded and there are no 2nd chances.

    i feel this method would allow new users to see what they need to do clearer, and what is required of them when being accepted into this forum. as most people now do not read the stickies properly, a lot of people here waste there time telling new users to read the rules, over and over again.

    I figure if people cant fill things out correctly the first time, it just means they cant even spend the time to read something correctly. If this is the case, how can they be trusted with private invites (and to read the rules from those sites) and keep other respected T-I members from getting banned due to there negligence.

    As i had wrote above, ive done a lot of vB modification in the past. there are already a wide array of mods out there that can do custom forms which are quite easy to manipulate and add. Thus allowing this type of change to be fairly simple.

    If a suggestion such as this has been posted before, i apologize. If anyone likes this idea, please post below. if anyone has anything they would like to add or change from this suggestion, post it too. i think this would save a lot of time in the long run for getting new users accepted or denied into T-I.

    Thanks for reading
