TOO MANY HOES IN MY MOTHAFUCKING MEAL
hi everyone, don't know if it's the right place but I have a suggestion for the site.
I always see people using SWIM or talking about their pet dragon, monkey, hamster and such
so I think it would be better to put a very visible banner saying not to use these things. sometimes it gets really annoying and it's hard to read shit like "my hamster whom is not me and his friend dog whom is absolutely not a friend of mine took a blotter " .... etcetera
 
it is already part of the BLUA.

and many forum's guidelines already repeat the rule.
 
We have exhausted all of our resources (aside from the banner which you mention, although I think that some forums may have it in theirs) to keeping the 'swimming' to a minimum, but I will say that your suggestion has been noted by senior staff and we will begin discussing it amongst ourselves.

yeah I see, but I think only 1% (if not less) of the users read the rules before posting

great ;)
 
After reviewing this with the other members of Senior Staff we have made some changes that will hopefully result in a decrease in the use of "SWIM."

For one, the swim rule was added to the 'Welcome Wagon' PM that all new members receive upon registering to this site. There was another issue where one of the links to the BLUA was redirecting to an older version of the BLUA that did not include the 'SWIM' rule, so that was resolved by linking it to the newer version of the rules that includes 'no swim' in it.
