You know what, I don't think it's possible to directly access the forum guidelines from the forums. I think if you know the URL or access a link to it created by an Admin posting in the Announcements section, you can access the guidelines, but I don't think there's an easy-to-find way to access them. Perhaps a link could be added on that top bar that says "Profile | FAQ | ...".

The Forum Guidelines are accessible from the main page, but you are correct, there is no direct way to access them. Thanks for pointing this out, I'm sure Percy will be checking into this.

Click on FAQ, then look in the left hand panel.

True, but still indirect
I suppose you could do it that way, but since you have to click on two links, it becomes and indirect way. FAQ =/= Forum Rules (though it could broadly entail Forum Rules).

Re: True, but still indirect
I'm aware of the missing link to Forum Guidelines, and many other's, too. For the time being we have to forego the dynamic links that made so much easily available without taking up a lot of real estate.
I'm hopeful that the dynamic menus will make a comeback at some point, but in the meantime I'm trying to think of ways to make more links easily available.

Just look at the puppies while you look for the forum rules on the same page.

Is the dog on the left mimicking the creation of Adam from the Sistine chapel, with the picture of the K9? I guess the dogs have their own interpretation of Genesis.
