You, me and everyone else hate big fonts, so im not so sure about that . A red border would help better i guess.
I don't hate them if they are used for stuff like that.
of course I'm not speaking about like fontsize +13, but just a few tats higher than normal, so it is slightly bigger than the other texts.... Lightred background, true red border, etc.... You know, like a " stop! you're doing something very wrong and you're about to get spammed with millions of viagra pills and dildo's if you don't read this" kind of box
quote: ... Or a big "READ FIRST" message at the top
I thought you just said you hated big texts

Yeah but this: quote: READ THIS FIRST!

Is your question answered in the Messenger Plus! Live FAQ?
Is your question answered in one of the "Sticky" threads at the top of this forum?
Please remember...

How about just not showing the thread page until they've checked a box saying they've read it or something?

Yeah, I changed the first line from 12px to 16px.
Making the box red doesn't seem very user-friendly... it's not a crime to post a new thread in Plus! Help & Support.

RE: How to get more & faster help on this board!
it isn't? but it looks very eye catching, hard to miss ....
Anyways, something which does make some sense too (I hope):
Add the same box in Bug Reports (especially the (!VER) part).

Well, I think the notice is more noticeable now.
I'm also planning to get that ajax similar threads thingy added soon, but it still needs work...
