@mike Still though, you could argue if you've got a long complicated document nobody will read that prior to signing up
Bullet point list might not hold all the nuance but people will actually read it
It's not like the extended description is going anywhere
@Gargron what exactly are you proposing? You've made it sound like you'd reduce the rules to a bullet point list for new users and that's it. How about a mock-up of what you're saying?
I want preamble, and some degree of clarification text in place. We know that for most people this is the one and only time they're going to look at this.
