What this does
This will force your members to read the site rules. When they try to go in the UserCp or the main forums (depending on the method you are using) they will be directed to the Site Rules. (which you make) and have to agree to them in order to use the usercp or forumshome.. Once they agree to the sites forum rules, they will be directed back to the user cp, or forumhome and not be forced to see that page again.
If you want this to force members on a difrrent page, please request it here and i will release how to do it on another page.
