The wording is probably really bad for this, but I try to explain it as good as I can.
By now we have it that some forums are flooded with content that just ends up being marked as invalid or dying down anyway, creating clutter. A good way to prevent that would be guides/warnings on specific forums either pointing out a short summary of rules directly or linking to the guideline-post in the specific subforum.
An example would be Github, which allows repository-maintainers to create a file that includes guidelines for reporting stuff and people are asked to read it with an alert popping up at the top of the issue/pull request form:
I'm not sure, but I think I saw a post regarding this here already, or it was a discussion in one. If you can point me to it I'll gladly reply there, but after searching for quite a while I couldn't find anything.
