Not sure if this is on your end, or another mod is conflicting with this one, as I do not have this issue.

The alignment is a bit off which is a little odd.

Happens to me too.

I did noticed the following feature:

Reset acceptance status when user received infraction

Would be great if we can set our own rules for them to read when a infraction has been given.

yes! it should..

try to allow guest to see all the forums without accept rules (spiders are not registered)

i know a forum which has this mod (for 3.8.4) and spiders can explore all site

Answer to Dacho:

Before Accepting Rules User Can Not --> View Forums [untag]

OR

Usergroups excluded from restrictions (comma separated ID list) --> 1 (unregistered users)

BUG
I've also found a bug! I just added a new rule and specified a forum. How ever, I removed it because people not withint that usergroup saw the rules! And now people within that section are stuck of accepting the same rules over and over again. how do I solve this?
