A question about the rules

[21hens-incharge]

On a few occasions recently I have searched for the BYC rules and cannot find them.

Searching for "byc rules", "BYC rules", "rules" does not bring them up.
Having been a member for several years now I want to be able to refresh myself on the rules so if they have changed I know.

Why are the rules so hard to find?

To me it makes sense to have them "stickied" at the top of each forum section. I know not every rule will apply to every section but I really believe they should be easy to find for anyone at any time.

Sure someone "could" link me from here but what about next time I want to read them?

If not "sticky" in every forum then perhaps at least this one.....

At the bottom of every page there is something that says terms and rules. You can click on that in the future.
For now here is a link to them:

OMG!!
It is super tiny and I never saw that lol. Seriously in 5+ years I never noticed that.


Still thinking it should be more prominently displayed.

It's alright! I had to ask someone before I knew, too!
Then I was like "What, how could I not figure that out on my own?"
I agree, it should be more prominently displayed though.

I looked through the links that are centered at the bottom, through search terms, through section headers and through articles (using search terms) and did not find them. I never noticed the link in that little bar.

I did find one forum sticky topic that had a link labeled "rules" but got the famous "page cannot be found" when I clicked it.
Now if I could remember which sticky THAT was in it would be a miracle.

I'm looking for it too but I have no idea where you were looking.
I'm looking places I think you were clicking.

The "discussions" link at the bottom of this one is broken.

Neither of those are the one I was looking for.

It is the "rules" linked within that doesn't work.
