Maybe Bunni could make some threads that cannot be edited that just talk about forum rules, and add something about the PMs. I've been on forums that had that before.
Well, looking over the manual you should be able to do that as a moderator [most boards allow that as a mod power]. Just to run though it, apparently when you look at the forums as a moderator, you see a tickbox by each thread. This is their example:



Like that, according to their help page. To make a rules thread like the ones you've seen, post it, then tick the box and click "stick thread" in the drop-down menu at the bottom of the page, then "Go." This places the thread at the top of the forum, outside the normal posting order.



Then do the same, but click "close thread" before "Go." You now have a thread that's always at the top of the forum and which nobody can reply to.
