Default What's with all the Noobs NOT reading the rules?

I can't count how many times IMFDB members have pointed out rule violations to noobs who then answer "Oh, sorry I didn't know that was against the rules" when its' clearly laid out, plain as day in the RULES section.

Does anyone have any great ideas to make new members actually read the rules before they make endless amounts of mistakes that the rest of us have to correct on the site? All ideas are welcome, even ones that include electroshock and cattleprods....

If this sounds like a rant, sorry. I just quickly calculated that roughly 30% of veteran IMFDB members & Mods time is expended correcting errors or bad pages or bad formatting by new members, many times who are drive by anonymous users who make changes and then disappear forever.
