The FUG was changed today and all accounts were reset.

Changelog:

Words to introduce new rules for [Offers and Wanted] forum (including link to Must Read for posting in said forum).

I do completely agree with the changes to the offers and wanted rules, but I think people should be able to opt out of them in their own threads by putting something to that effect in their OP. Basically I sometimes post things FS but actually want people to let me know if my price is unreasonable, even if they're not planning to buy it.

Fair enough, in this case it's fine.

What has actually changed, as of 6 April? The wording still looks the same to me.

As per topic, added a line about the [Offers and Wanted] forum. Easy to find.

That FUG is horrible to read, the first lot of text just looks like a big wall and its very hard to read it.

maybe sort it by rough topics would make it easier to follow and then for each topic break it up a with a blank line

thats just how i see it and i dont mean any offense by it as you guys/girls do a great job

It is a big list of things you shouldn't do. Not easier to put in any other way, really.

Every line has a reason/situation behind it.

Seems fair and keeps GZ a good community.

Can you provide a re-written example of how it could look better?
